Every sheet in April 1969

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

  1. 1st April 196925 voles are marked and released. Later 64 are caught, of which 8 are marked. Estimate the population.
  2. 2nd April 1969Work out (8 x 10^8) x (5 x 10^4). Give your answer in standard form.
  3. 3rd April 1969A region is defined by y < -2x + 8. Should the boundary line be solid or dashed, and why?
  4. 4th April 1969y is directly proportional to x. When x = 7, y = 77. Work out y when x = 9.
  5. 5th April 1969The point (5, -4) is enlarged by scale factor -2 about the centre (4, -3). Write down the coordinates of the image.
  6. 6th April 19691 of 6 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
  7. 7th April 1969A cumulative frequency graph is drawn for 116 values. What cumulative frequency do you read across from to estimate the lower quartile?
