6 - Check the shapes you have drawn look like the ones on the card. They do not need to be anywhere near perfect!

7 - 1) Check your circle part names:



 

2) a) Set your compass to a gap of 6cm and draw the circle. Note that this will give a diameter of 10cm which is how big your circle should be.
b) Set your compass to a gap of 5cm (half the 10cm diameter). Note that this will give a diameter of 12cm which is how big your circle should be.

8 - 1) Rectangle: 28cm², Triangle: 14cm². Parallelogram: 28cm², Trapezium: 24cm²
2a) 44cm   b) 100cm²

9 - 1) a) Circumference = 25.1cm or 8ℼ, Area = 50.3cm² or 16ℼ cm²

2
) a) Area = 78.5/2 = 39.3cm
² or 12.5ℼ

101) a) 20 x 12 = 240cm³   b) 50.3 x 15 = 753.8cm³ or 240ℼ cm³
2)  Find the area of each face: 6 x 4 = 24, 3 x 4 = 12,        6 x 3 = 18.  Then add them together and double for the other three faces: 54 x 2 = 108cm²

J1) a) 5.29cm   
2)  Height of triangle = 4cm. Volume = (3x4)/2 x 8 = 48cm

A - 1) a) Mode = 10  b) Mean = 75/10 = 7.5  
c) Median = 8,   ​
d) Range = 12 - 3 = 9  
1) Class A: Mean=75%, Median=79%, Range=51%
Class B:
Mean=69.4%, Median=70%, Range=23% 
Conclusion: Class A has a higher mean and median than Class B which shows that Class A scored higher on average. However, Class B has  smaller range which shows that its scores were more consistent.


2 - 1) a) Mode = 1 pet    b) Mean = 1.2 pets   
c)
Range = 3 - 0 = 3 pets
b) y = 81° (corresponding & opposite angles) 
c) z = 113° (alternate or corresponding angles & angles on a straight line = 180°)

J - 1) a) i)  0.64    ii)  0.76    
b) 1 - 0.64 = 0.36 (left for pink and grey) so 3x=0.36 and x = 0.12
c) 
0.4 x 240 = 96 times

5
♠ - 1) a) x = 3   b) x = 6   c) x = -3    d) x = 9   e) x = 2.4   f) x = 6

7
♠ - 1) 10x + 9 = 24 so x = 1.5. Then substitute this into the expressions for each side. Area = (8 x 6)/2 = 24cm² (Just a coincidence for this particular triangle that the area is the same as the perimeter)   
2) a)
 Rio's age is x + 3   b) Eva's age is 2(x + 3) or 2x + 6    c) Total age is x + x + 3 + 3x + 6 = 5x + 9

2) a) 4n+5    b) 3n - 2    c) -2n + 11 or 11 - 2n
3) List the sequence out to check... 7,11,15,19,23,27,31,35,39,43,47,51,55,59 - No, 57 is NOT in the sequence as you skip past it.
Or you can form an equation: 4n + 3 = 57. When you solve this you get 54/4 which is not a whole number which also means 57 is NOT a term in the sequence.


K♠ - 1) a) x = y - d
