- 1Histograms3 marks
A histogram has two bars: one 20 units wide with frequency density 2.5, one 25 units wide with density 3.5. How many values in total?
- 2Surds3 marks
Rationalise the denominator of 42/sqrt(7), giving your answer in its simplest form.
- 3Completing the Square3 marks
Write x^2 - 6x + 13 in the form (x + a)^2 + b.
- 4Direct and Inverse Proportion Depth3 marks
y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 2, y = 8. Work out the positive value of x when y = 18.
- 5Perpendicular Lines and the equation of a tangent3 marks
The point (10, 24) lies on the circle x^2 + y^2 = 676. Work out the gradient of the tangent to the circle at that point.
