Every sheet in February 1966
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st February 1966x : y = 3 : 8. Write y in terms of x.
- 2nd February 1966A right-angled triangle has sides 6 cm, 8 cm and 10 cm. Work out the angle opposite the 6 cm side, to 1 decimal place.
- 3rd February 196627 students study Spanish and 8 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 4th February 1966A capture-recapture estimate is made of the ladybird population of a garden. State one assumption the method relies on.
- 5th February 1966Work out 49^(3/2).
- 6th February 1966A region is defined by y <= 4x - 6. Should the boundary line be solid or dashed, and why?
- 7th February 1966A price rises by 20% and then falls by 20%. Work out the overall percentage change, to 2 decimal places.
- 8th February 1966The point (-6, -3) is enlarged by scale factor -2 about the centre (-3, 4). Write down the coordinates of the image.
- 9th February 19661 of 5 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
- 10th February 1966A histogram class is 2 units wide and contains 3 values. Work out the frequency density.
- 11th February 1966Write sqrt(98) in the form a sqrt(b), where b is as small as possible.
- 12th February 1966Factorise x^2 - 7x - 18.
- 13th February 1966y is inversely proportional to x. When x = 9, y = 30. Work out y when x = 5.
- 14th February 1966Two similar solids have lengths in the ratio 1 : 3. The larger has a volume of 432 cm^3. Work out the volume of the smaller.
- 15th February 196615 students study Spanish and 6 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
