Question 1. A coat costs £50.
It is reduced by 30%.
Then the new price is reduced by a further 10%.
Ed says,
"That is the same as taking 40% off the £50."
Is Ed correct?
You must show your working.Applied Best Buys▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: 50 - 15 = 35 (30% of 50 is 15)
- M1: 10% of 35 = 3.5, so the price is 31.5
- M1: 50 - 20 = 30 (40% of 50 is 20)
- C1: 31.5 is not equal to 30, so Ed is not correct
Answer: No: £31.50 is not £30[4 marks] - 2
Question 2. f(x) = x² - 2x
Ravi works out f(-3).
Ravi's working is f(-3) = -9 + 6 = -3
Ravi says f(-3) = -3
Is Ravi correct? You must show your working.Fundamentals of Functions▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: (-3)² = 9
- A1: 9 - 2 × (-3) = 15, so Ravi is not correct
Answer: No, f(-3) = 15[2 marks] - 3
Question 3. Triangle ABC has vertices A(1, 1), B(5, 1) and C(3, 4).
Triangle ABC is reflected in the line x = 1.
Write down the number of vertices of triangle ABC that are invariant.Invariant Points▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: an invariant vertex has x-coordinate 1, the same as the mirror line: only A
- A1: 1
Answer: 1[2 marks] - 4
Question 4. A circle has centre (0, 0) and passes through the point (6, -8)
Write down the equation of the circle.Sketching Circles▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: r² = 6² + (-8)² = 36 + 64 = 100
- A1: x² + y² = 100
Answer: x² + y² = 100[2 marks] - 5
Question 5. In triangle ABC, dfrac6sin A = 8.5 and A is acute.
Work out angle A. Give your answer to 1 decimal place.Fundamentals of the Sine Rule▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: sin A = dfrac68.5
