Every sheet in November 1976
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st November 197631 students study Spanish and 12 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 2nd November 197635 voles are marked and released. Later 12 are caught, of which 3 are marked. Estimate the population.
- 3rd November 1976Work out (8 x 10^7) x (4 x 10^-6). Give your answer in standard form.
- 4th November 1976Make x the subject of y = 2x^2 - 8.
- 5th November 1976y is directly proportional to x. When x = 8, y = 72. Work out y when x = 13.
- 6th November 1976In triangle ABC, angle A is 53°, angle B is 80° and side a is 10 cm. Use the sine rule to work out side b, to 1 decimal place.
- 7th November 19764 of 10 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
- 8th November 1976A cumulative frequency graph is drawn for 44 values. What cumulative frequency do you read across from to estimate the lower quartile?
- 9th November 1976Write the recurring decimal 0.4242... as a fraction in its simplest form.
- 10th November 1976Factorise x^2 - 16.
- 11th November 1976A town's population is 15000 and grows by 6% each year. Work out the population after 4 years, to the nearest whole number.
- 12th November 1976A right-angled triangle has sides 9 cm, 12 cm and 15 cm. Work out the angle opposite the 9 cm side, to 1 decimal place.
- 13th November 197617 students study Spanish and 7 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 14th November 1976A box plot has a minimum of 9 and a maximum of 69. Work out the range.
- 15th November 1976A bill is £600 including VAT at 20%. Work out the amount before VAT.
- 16th November 1976A region is defined by y <= 3x - 7. Should the boundary line be solid or dashed, and why?
- 17th November 1976A block has volume 130 cm^3 and density 7.5 g/cm^3. Work out its mass.
- 18th November 1976The point (2, 6) is enlarged by scale factor -3 about the centre (-2, 0). Write down the coordinates of the image.
- 19th November 19767 of 10 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
- 20th November 1976A box plot has minimum 1, lower quartile 4, median 11, upper quartile 16 and maximum 20. Work out the interquartile range.
- 21st November 1976A code is 2 letters (A to Z) followed by 2 digits (0 to 9), and repeats are allowed. How many codes are possible?
- 22nd November 1976Factorise x^2 + 2x - 48.
- 23rd November 1976x : y = 5 : 9. Write y in terms of x.
- 24th November 1976Two similar solids have lengths in the ratio 1 : 2. The larger has a volume of 48 cm^3. Work out the volume of the smaller.
- 25th November 197626 students study Spanish and 6 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 26th November 1976A capture-recapture estimate is made of the snail population of a hedgerow. State one assumption the method relies on.
- 27th November 1976Work out (28 x 10^6) / (7 x 10^5). Give your answer in standard form.
- 28th November 1976Work out the equation of the line parallel to y = 2x + 9 that passes through (1, -7).
