Question 4

The diagram shows a prism of length 10 cm.

Figure for question 4

The cross-section of the prism is a right-angled triangle. The base, b cm, is 2 cm longer than the height, h cm. The volume of the prism is 240 cm3.

A student is explaining how they worked out the value of b.

They say

b is 6 because that means h is 4 and 6 × 4 × 10 = 240.

Describe the student’s error and find the correct value of b.

The points for the first eight children (shaded in the table above) are plotted on the scatter diagram.

Figure for question 5
(a)

Plot the points for the remaining four children.

[2]

(b)

Describe the type of correlation shown in the completed scatter diagram.

[1]

(c)

One of these children is taller than expected for their age.

On the scatter diagram, circle the point representing this child.

(d)(i)

Kai is 8 years old. By drawing a line of best fit, estimate Kai’s height.

[2]

(d)(ii)

Describe an assumption you have made in giving your answer to part (d)(i).

[1]

(e)

Explain why using this data to estimate the height of a child that is 17 years old may be unreliable.

Question 6

Taylor has a full bottle of medicine. The bottle holds 20 doses of medicine.

Each day Taylor takes one dose of medicine out of the bottle. After 8 days, there are 180 millilitres of medicine left in the bottle.

Work out how many millilitres of medicine the bottle holds when full.

Question 8

A block made of iron is in the shape of a cuboid. The block is 3.1 cm by 4.9 cm by 2.2 cm. The density of iron is 7.87 g / cm3. Sam thinks that the mass of the block is about 2.4 kg.

Use estimation to decide if Sam’s answer is reasonable. Show how you decide.

Sam’s answer is........ because........

Question 10

A student draws two different regular polygons. The exterior angle of one polygon is p °. The exterior angle of the other polygon is q °.

The sum of p and q is 112°. The difference between p and q is 32°.

Find the number of sides of each polygon. You must show your working.

........ sides and........ sides

Figure for question 14

The region R satisfies the following inequalities.

Question 14, shown as an image

By drawing one more line, find and label the region R.

Question 17

A rhombus is drawn on a coordinate grid. One diagonal of the rhombus has equation y = fraction + 3. The other diagonal passes through the point (1, 7).

Find the equation of the other diagonal of the rhombus. Give your answer in the form y = mx + c.

[4]

Question 19

A box contains 25 discs. The discs are either blue or yellow in the ratio 4: 1. Two discs are chosen at random from the box without replacement.

Find the probability that the two discs are different colours. You must show your working.
