Every sheet in July 1954

The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.

  1. 1st July 1954A histogram class is 2 units wide and contains 1 values. Work out the frequency density.
  2. 2nd July 1954Work out (16 x 10^7) / (4 x 10^2). Give your answer in standard form.
  3. 3rd July 1954Make x the subject of y = 6x^2 - 6.
  4. 4th July 1954y is inversely proportional to x. When x = 9, y = 2. Work out y when x = 2.
  5. 5th July 1954In triangle ABC, angle A is 63°, angle B is 52° and side a is 9 cm. Use the sine rule to work out side b, to 1 decimal place.
  6. 6th July 19543 of 9 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
  7. 7th July 1954Four classes in order have frequencies 8, 6, 4, 9. Write down the cumulative frequency at the end of the third class.
  8. 8th July 1954Write the recurring decimal 0.111... as a fraction in its simplest form.
  9. 9th July 1954Factorise x^2 - 36.
  10. 10th July 1954y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 6, y = 180. Work out y when x = 7.
  11. 11th July 1954A right-angled triangle has sides 8 cm, 15 cm and 17 cm. Work out the angle opposite the 8 cm side, to 1 decimal place.
  12. 12th July 195412 students study Spanish and 6 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
  13. 13th July 195410 fish are marked and released. Later 81 are caught, of which 9 are marked. Estimate the population.
  14. 14th July 1954Work out 125^(2/3).
  15. 15th July 1954A region is defined by y < -x + 9. Should the boundary line be solid or dashed, and why?
  16. 16th July 1954y is directly proportional to x. When x = 5, y = 60. Work out y when x = 9.

  19. 19th July 1954A cumulative frequency graph is drawn for 64 values. What cumulative frequency do you read across from to estimate the lower quartile?
  20. 20th July 1954Write sqrt(75) in the form a sqrt(b), where b is as small as possible.
  21. 21st July 1954Factorise x^2 + 8x + 16.
