Simplifying Surds▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: n = (6√5)² = 36 × 5
- A1: 180
Answer: 180[2 marks] - 2
Question 2. On a histogram, the class 20 < h ≤ 50 has frequency 45. Work out the height of its bar.
Interpreting Histograms▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: 45 ÷ 30
- A1: 1.5
Answer: 1.5[2 marks] - 3
Question 3. Simplify fully dfracx² - 94x + 8 × dfracx + 2x - 3
Multiplying & Dividing Algebraic Fractions▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: x² - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3)
- M1: 4x + 8 = 4(x + 2)
- A1: dfracx + 34
Answer: dfracx + 34[3 marks] - 4
Question 4. y is inversely proportional to the cube of x. When x=2, y=12. Work out the value of x when y=1.5.
Direct & Inverse Proportion with Functions▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: y=dfrackx³, 12=dfrack8, k=96
- M1: 1.5=dfrac96x³, x³=64
- A1: x=4
Answer: x=4[3 marks] - 5
Question 5. The line y = x + k is a tangent to the circle x² + y² = 18. Work out the two possible values of k
Finding Equations of Tangents to Circles▶ Show worked answerHide worked answer
- M1: x² + (x + k)² = 18 gives 2x² + 2kx + k² - 18 = 0
- M1: tangent means one solution, so (2k)² - 8(k² - 18) = 0
- A2: k² = 36, so k = 6 or k = -6
Answer: k = 6 or k = -6[4 marks]
