Every sheet in April 1973

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 1973y is inversely proportional to x. When x = 7, y = 6. Work out y when x = 2.
  2. 2nd April 1973ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. Angle ABC is 70°. Work out angle ADC.
  3. 3rd April 197317 students study Spanish and 8 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
