Every sheet in November 1980
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st November 1980Factorise x^2 + 9x + 18.
- 2nd November 1980y is inversely proportional to x. When x = 5, y = 10. Work out y when x = 2.
- 3rd November 1980Two similar solids have lengths in the ratio 1 : 2. The larger has a volume of 264 cm^3. Work out the volume of the smaller.
