Question 1. The population of a town is 40 000.
The population falls by 5% each year.
Work out the population of the town after 2 years.Compound Decay▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: 100 - 5 = 95%
- M1: 40000 × 0.95 × 0.95
- A1: 36100
Answer: 36 100[3 marks] - 2
Question 2. A shop sells one type of T-shirt.
It comes in 3 colours and 4 designs.
Each colour and design comes in the same number of sizes.
There are 96 different T-shirts in total.
Work out the number of sizes.Calculating Combinations▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: 3 × 4 = 12 combinations of colour and design
- M1: 96 ÷ 12
- A1: 8
Answer: 8[3 marks] - 3
Question 3. Make x the subject of y = dfrac15x - 4
Rearranging Harder Equations▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: y(x - 4) = 15
- M1: x - 4 = dfrac15y
- A1: x = dfrac15y + 4
Answer: x = dfrac15y + 4[3 marks] - 4
Question 4. Here is a speed-time graph for a car.
Nina says, "The distance is 12 × 40 = 480 metres."
Is Nina correct?
Give a reason for your answer.Calculating Total Distance Travelled Using Speed-Time Graphs▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: ½ × (40 + 20) × 12 = 360
- C1: No, 480 is greater than 360 because the speed was not 12 throughout
Answer: No: the distance is 360 m[2 marks] - 5
Question 5. Here is triangle ABC.
Work out the length of BC.
Give your answer to 1 decimal place.Finding Side Lengths Using the Cosine Rule▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: BC² = 8² + 13² - 2 × 8 × 13 × cos 38^°
- M1: BC² = 233.00 - 163.91 = 69.09
- A1: BC = 8.3
Answer: 8.3 cm[3 marks]
