Q1. b
**********************************************************
To assess which size carton of orange is the better buy, we must determine the cost per ml .
Q1a. (i)May 2013
So for carton (350ml):
Since the exact value for the expression is requested, do not convert to decimal.
4 5
=
9 5
=
27 – 5 15
=
22 15

–
1 3
= 1.14 cents per ml
Q1. c Principal (P) = $9,600 Interest (r) = 8% after first year Time (T) = 1 year Interest after first year = 8% of $9600
2 5 12 5 2
=
Step 3: Invert denominator and multiply by numerator 5 22 × 12 15
=
= 1.2 cents per ml
The better buy is therefore carton size (450 ml) as it costs less than carton size(350ml)
(LCM = 15)
Step 2: Simplify the denominator viz:
=
$4.2 350
and for carton (450ml) : $5.13 cost per ml = 450
Step1: Simplify the numerator viz: 1
cost per ml =
=
1 22 × 12 3
=
9600×
8 100
= $768
Total amount owing after first year = Principal + Interest = (9600 + 768) = $10,368 Amount repaid at end of first year = $4, 368 so amount still owing at beginning of second year is: = 10,368 – 4,368 = $6,000
1 11 × 6 3
11 18
Interest due after second year is 8% of $6000 8 6000× = $480 100
1.a (ii)
√( 1.5625)

so: 1.25 + 0.1024 = 1.3524 ( do not round your answer)

2 a) (i)
2b (i)
The first thing to note is that we can factor 2x from both terms in (i) to get: 2x ( x2 – 4)
To make C the subject:
The term in bracket is now the familiar difference of two squares , where: 2
x – 4=( x+2 )( x−2)
Step
Action
1
Move (32) to the LHS
2
so the the completely factorized espression is:
Result
Mul both sides by
3
F-32 =
5 9
Swap RHS with LHS
2x ( x+2)( x−2 )
9 C 5
5 ( F −32 ) 9
C=
=C
5 ( F −32 ) 9
2 a) (ii) From the question paper, we can see that the coefficients of the quadratic expression are : a = 3,
C=
b = -5 and c = -2
we must now identify two numbers whose product = ac and whose sum = b now : and
2b (ii) If F = 113 then
ac = 3×−2 = b = −5
5 (113−32) = 45 9
2c (i) Total tickest sold = 500 so if x tickets were sold for $6 each then
−6
a) (500 – x) tickets were sold for $10 each
The challenge is now to find two numbers whose product is (- 6) and whose sum is (-5 )
b) total money collected =
= 6x + 5000 – 10x
Condition 1 The pair of numbers must multiply to give negative 6, so one number must be negative. Condition 2 The pair of numbers must add (sum) to give negative 5, so the bigger number must be negative.
6x+10(500− x)
= 5000 - 4x 2c(ii) If amount collected is known to be $4108 then:
Pairs of numbers are: (- 6) and (+1) product = - 6 and sum = -5 (-3) and (+2) product = - 6 and sum = -1
4108 = 5000 – 4x so 4x = 5000 – 4108
clearly the first pair of numbers that match our criteria is the first pair of ( - 6 ) and ( +1)
giving:
x =
5000 – 4108 4
= 223 tickets were sold for $6 each.
Now we must rewrite the original quadratic equation, and replace the coefficient of the middle term ( which is -5) with the pair of numbers that we just found. ( - 6, and +1) Note that:
-6+1 =-5
Rewriting we get : = =

Finding the intercept c recall also that the perpendicular bisector passes through the mid point of line AB, so one point on the perpendicular bisector is the mid point coordinates ( 1, 3) of line AB So by substituting the coordinates (1, 3) , and the gradient m 2 = 2 into the equation for the perpendicular bisector we get can find the intercept c.
So:

5. b(i) Finding fg(2) Now given f(x) and g(x) as shown on the past paper: to find fg(2) we must first find g(2) by substituting 2 into the function g(x). ie: g(2) = 4(2) + 5 = 13 now since g(2) = 13, then fg(2) is the same as f(13) so by substituting 13 in the function f(x) we get: fg(2) is the same as f(13) =
f −1 (3)
5. b(ii) Finding

Now to convert the speed of a car from 54 km/h to m/s we can do the following:
() ( ) ()
now so
1km = 1000m 54km/h = 54,000m/h
also so
1 h = 3600 sec 54,000m/h means that the car will travel 54,000 54,000 = 15 meters in meters in 3600 sec or = 3600 1 sec
⇒
M 6 + 4
The fig below shows the image after the translation
54km/hr = 15m/s
Now Distance = Speed x Time so if the speed if 15 m/s, then after 20 seconds : Distance =

Q 7a) ( i) Statistics
Q 7c.i) 1. The median Q2 correspond to the 1/2 n th ranked student, where n = 40 So the median amount spent corresponds to the amount spent by the 20th ranked student on the curve. ⇒ median = $31 Q 7c.ii)
The amount of students that spend less than $23 is read from the curve as 9 9 so the probability that a student spent less than $23 = 40

Q8.a)
Finding a rule relating B and N
The fourth diagram is the sequence is shown below
The formula or rule that relates the number N with the number of balls B may be found using general equation for a straight line , since the relationship is linear. Ie
B1 =m 2 N 1 +c B2 =m 2 N 2+c
The completed table is shown below
(i) (ii)
N 1 2 3 4 20
# Wires 12 20 28 36 164
# Balls 8 12 16 20 84
hence
m2
=
B2 – B1 = N 2 −N 1
12 – 8 2−1
=4
substituting this gradient into the first equation 8 = 4 (1) +c so c=4 Therfore the equation for the number of balls B is:
Finding a rule relating W and N The formula or rule that relates the number N with the number of wires W may be found using general equation for a straight line , since the relationship is linear. Ie
B=m 2 N +c ( m2 = gradient, c = intercept) so using diagrams 1 and 2
W = m N + c ( m = gradient, c = intercept) so using diagrams 1 and 2
B = 4N +4
so
if N = 4,
then
B = (4 x 4) + 4 = 20
and
if N = 20,
then
B = (4x 20) + 4 = 84
W 1 =m N 1 +c W 2=m N 2 +c hence
m=
w 2 – w1 = N 2 −N 1
20 – 12 2−1
=8
substituting this gradient into the first equation 12 = 8 (1) +c so c=4 Therfore the equation for the number of wires W is: W = 8N +4 so
if N = 4,
then
W = (8 x 4) + 4 = 36
and
if N = 20,
then
W = (8 x 20) + 4 = 164
