- 1Conditional Probability3 marks
A bag holds 4 red, 7 blue and 5 green counters. Two are taken without replacement. Given neither is green, what is the probability both are red?

A histogram has four 10-wide classes from 0, with frequency densities 1, 0.5, 3, 2. Which class contains the median?
- 3Bounds3 marks
A car covers 200 m (to the nearest 10 m) in 8 s (to the nearest second). Work out the lower bound of its speed, to 2 decimal places.
- 4Rearranging Harder Formulae3 marks
Make x the subject of 3x + 6 = y(x + 6).
- 5Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is inversely proportional to x^2. When x = 3, y = 25. Work out y when x = 5.
