Make two different criticisms of his graph.

A company uses this formula to work out the cost, £ A, of a taxi ride. A = 4 + 1.8 m + b £4 is a fixed charge m is the number of miles travelled £ b is a charge for booking online

Clare books a taxi online and travels 8 miles. She pays £20 altogether. How much is the charge for booking online?

A different company has a fixed charge of £3 charges £1.90 per mile has no charge for booking online. Write a formula for the cost, £ C, of a taxi ride with this company.

A or B or both A but not B

not A and not B A and B

A circle has circumference C and diameter d.

What value does the constant k represent?

There are 240 cows on a farm.

On the farm, number of bulls: number of cows = 1: 30 How many bulls are there?

Assume the 240 cows produce milk for 10 months each year each cow produces an average of 25 litres of milk per day. Estimate the total milk production, in litres, of the 240 cows in one year. You must show your working.

Here is some information about 20 trains leaving a station.

Work out an estimate of the mean number of minutes late.

The station manager looks at the information in more detail.

Number of minutes late, t	Number of trains
0 t 2	12
2 t 4	0
4 t 6	7
6 t 8	0
8 t 10	0
10 t 12	1

He works out an estimate of the mean using this information. How does his estimate compare with the answer to part (a)? Tick one box.

Two identical quarter circles are cut from a rectangle as shown.

Work out the shaded area.

The diagrams show the position of a tap when off and fully on. The tap is fully on when the angle of turn is 180°

When fully on, water flows out of the tap at 14 litres per minute. The rate at which water flows out is in direct proportion to the angle of turn. The tap is turned 135°

The water flows into a tank with a capacity of 79.8 litres. Will it take less than 7 minutes to fill the tank? You must show your working.

This triangle is equilateral.

Is the perimeter of the triangle greater than one metre? You must show your working.
