Question 1. A shop sells a piece of cheese. Its mass is 250 g, rounded down to the nearest 10 g.
Sam says the cheese could have a mass of 259 g.
Is Sam correct?
Give a reason for your answer.Bounds & Error Intervals for Truncated Decimals▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: 250 and 250 + 10
- C1: Yes, 259 is less than 260
Answer: Yes: the mass is 250 ≤ m < 260, and 259 is inside this interval.[2 marks] - 2
Question 2. A reflection has mirror line y = 6.
The point (-4, c) is an invariant point of this reflection.

Question 3. A café's daily takings over 60 days have range £480 but interquartile range £60.
What does this tell you about the daily takings? [2]Benefits of IQR & Range▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- B1: the middle half of the days' takings are within £60 of each other, so most days are similar
- B1: the large range is caused by one or two extreme days
Answer: Most days' takings are similar (middle 50% within £60); the range is large because of an extreme day[2 marks] - 4
Question 4. The difference between the squares of two consecutive positive even numbers is 100.
The squares are subtracted larger minus smaller.
Use algebra to work out the two numbers.Proof with Even Numbers▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: (2n + 2)² - (2n)² = 8n + 4
- M1: 8n + 4 = 100
- A1: n = 12 so the numbers are 24 and 26
Answer: 24 and 26[3 marks] - 5
Question 5. By completing the square, find the coordinates of the turning point of y = x² - 8x + 3
Turning Points of Quadratics▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: (x - 4)²
- M1: (x - 4)² - 16 + 3
- A1: (x - 4)² - 13
- A1: (4, -13)
Answer: (4, -13)[4 marks]
