Every sheet in May 2002
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st May 200219 students study Spanish and 3 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 2nd May 2002A histogram class is 4 units wide and contains 8 values. Work out the frequency density.
- 3rd May 2002Write the recurring decimal 0.4444... as a fraction in its simplest form.
- 4th May 2002Make x the subject of y = 8x^2 - 12.
- 5th May 2002y is inversely proportional to x. When x = 2, y = 36. Work out y when x = 6.
- 6th May 2002In triangle ABC, angle A is 37°, angle B is 52° and side a is 19 cm. Use the sine rule to work out side b, to 1 decimal place.
- 7th May 20025 of 10 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
- 8th May 2002Four classes in order have frequencies 10, 3, 4, 7. Write down the cumulative frequency at the end of the third class.

- 10th May 2002Factorise x^2 - 16.
- 11th May 2002y is directly proportional to x^2. When x = 2, y = 8. Work out y when x = 4.
- 12th May 2002A right-angled triangle has sides 9 cm, 40 cm and 41 cm. Work out the angle opposite the 9 cm side, to 1 decimal place.
- 13th May 200217 students study Spanish and 3 of those also study Art. One Spanish student is picked at random. Work out the probability they study Art.
- 14th May 200260 fish are marked and released. Later 30 are caught, of which 6 are marked. Estimate the population.
- 15th May 2002A code is 3 letters (A to Z) followed by 3 digits (0 to 9), and repeats are allowed. How many codes are possible?
- 16th May 2002A region is defined by y < -2x + 7. Should the boundary line be solid or dashed, and why?
- 17th May 2002y is directly proportional to x. When x = 3, y = 30. Work out y when x = 14.
- 18th May 2002The point (5, -4) is enlarged by scale factor -2 about the centre (2, -2). Write down the coordinates of the image.
- 19th May 20021 of 8 bulbs in a box are faulty. Two are taken with replacement. Work out the probability at least one is faulty.
- 20th May 2002A cumulative frequency graph is drawn for 176 values. What cumulative frequency do you read across from to estimate the lower quartile?
- 21st May 2002Work out (32 x 10^11) / (8 x 10^5). Give your answer in standard form.
- 22nd May 2002Factorise x^2 - 2x - 15.
