The diagram shows two solids, A and B, made from two different metals.

Solid A is in the shape of a cylinder with radius 3 cm and height 7 cm Solid A has a mass of 2000 g

Solid B has a mass of 3375 g Solid B has a volume of 450 cm³

All of the metal from Solid A and Solid B is melted down to make a uniform Solid C

Given that there is no change to mass or volume during this process

work out the density of Solid C Give your answer correct to one decimal place.

_........ g / cm³

AB, BC, CD, DE and EF are five sides of a regular polygon.

Here are the numbers of aces that Rutger served in each of 11 tennis matches.

1 1 2 4 6 8 8 9 11 12 15

Find the interquartile range of the numbers of aces. Show your working clearly.

Kim also plays in 11 tennis matches.

For Kim the median number of aces is 11 the interquartile range of the numbers of aces is 5

State, giving a reason, whether Rutger or Kim

served more aces on average,

was more consistent with the number of aces served.

Here are two vectors.

Find AC → as a column vector.

The table gives information about the time taken by each student in Year 11 to complete a homework task.

Time taken (t minutes)	Frequency
10 t 25	15
25 t 30	18
30 t 50	32
50 t 60	4

On the grid, draw a histogram for this information.

One of these students who took 50 minutes or less and more than 25 minutes to complete this homework task is chosen at random.

Find an estimate for the probability that this student took 45 minutes or less to complete this homework task.
