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.

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.

7♦ - 1) 30 miles 2) 16 miles per hour
3) Tom's speed = 12 600 metres/hour

2) Place your events on the scale as shown below:
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

Q♦ - 1)
2) 0.3 x 0.44 = 0.132

A♠ - 1) a) 8 b) 1 c) 13 d) 69 e) 27 (square a and then times by the 3) f) 81 g) 25 - - 9 = 25+ 9 = 34 h) 5 + 4 = 9

5♠ - 1) a) x = 3 b) x = 6 c) x = -3 d) x = 9 e) x = 2.4 f) x = 6
6♠ - 1) a) x = 4 b) x = 7 c) x = -3 d) x = 4 e) x = 6 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)

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
3
9
c) x = f - st d) x = yp - 6
