Question 2

Jalina left her home at 10 00 to cycle to a park. On her way to the park, she stopped at a friend’s house and then continued her journey to the park. Here is the distance-time graph for her journey to the park.

Figure for question 2
(a)

On her journey to the park, did Jalina cycle at a faster speed before or after she stopped at her friend’s house? Give a reason for your answer.

(1)

(b)

Jalina stayed at the park for 45 minutes. She then cycled, without stopping, at a constant speed of 16 km/h from the park back to her home.

Show all this information on the distance-time graph.

(2)

(c)

Work out Jalina’s average cycling speed, in kilometres per hour, for the complete journey to the park and back. Do not include the times when she was not cycling in your calculation. Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

(3)

Question 5

Becky has a biased 6-sided dice.

The table gives information about the probability that, when the dice is thrown, it will land on each number.

Number123456
Probability2x0.182x3x0.26x

Becky is going to throw the dice 200 times.

Work out an estimate for the number of times that the dice will land on an even number.

Question 8

On 1st January 2016 Li bought a boat for $170 000 The value of the boat depreciates by 8% per year.

Work out the value of the boat on 1st January 2019 Give your answer correct to the nearest dollar.

Question 9

The diagram shows a shape made from a right-angled triangle and a semicircle.

Figure for question 9

AC is the diameter of the semicircle. BA = BC = 6 cm Angle ABC = 90°

Work out the area of the shape. Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

Question 13

In group C, there are 6 girls and 8 boys. In group D, there are 3 girls and 7 boys.

A team is made by picking at random one child from group C and one child from group D.

(a)

Complete the probability tree diagram.

Figure for question 13

(2)

(b)

Work out the probability that there are two boys in the team.

(2)

(c)

After the first team has been picked, a second team is picked. One child is picked at random from the children left in group C and one child is picked at random from the children left in group D.

Work out the probability that there are two boys in each of the two teams.

Question 19

The table gives information about the heights of some trees.

Height (h metres)Frequency
0 h 2015
20 h 3548
35 h 4021
40 h 5016

On the grid, draw a histogram for this information.

Question 20

Figure for question 20

A, B, C and D are points on a circle. TDV is the tangent to the circle at D.

AB = AD Angle ADT = 71°

Work out the size of angle BCD. Give a reason for each stage of your working.

(5)

Question 21

A solid is made from a hemisphere and a cylinder. The plane face of the hemisphere coincides with the upper plane face of the cylinder.

Figure for question 21

The hemisphere and the cylinder have the same radius.

The ratio of the radius of the cylinder to the height of the cylinder is 1: 3

Given that the solid has volume 792maths symbol cm3 work out the height of the solid.

Question 22

The graph of y = sinx° for 0 maths symbol x ≤ 360 is drawn on the grid.

Figure for question 22
(a)

On the grid, draw the graph of y = 2sin(x + 30)° for 0 maths symbol x ≤ 360

(2)

(b)(i)

Write x2maths symbolx + 10 in the form (xmaths symbola)2 + b where a and b are integers.

(2)

(b)(ii)

Hence, describe fully the single transformation that maps the curve with equation y = x2 onto the curve with equation y = x2maths symbolx + 10

(2)
