Worked Solutions
Question 1.
The diagram shows a trapezium PQRS and two identical semicircles.
The centre of each circle is on PQ.
Work out the area of the shaded region. Give your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
Area of trapezium = 𝟏𝟔
𝟐(14+18) = 8 × 32 = 256 cm2
Radius of each semi-circle = 14 ÷ 4 = 3.5 Area of two semi-circles 𝑨 = 𝝅 × 𝟑.𝟓𝟐 = 38.48451001
Area of shaded region = 256- 38.48451001 = 217.51549 = 218 3sf

Question 2.
Sanjay is going on holiday to America. The exchange rate is £1 = $1.45075 Sanjay changes £675 to dollars.
(a) Work out how many dollars he should get. Give your answer correct to the nearest dollar.
675 × 1.45075 = 979.25625 = $979 to nearest dollar
979 dollars
(2)
Sanjay sees a pair of trainers in America. The trainers cost $135.
Sanjay does not have a calculator. He uses £2 = $3 to work out the approximate cost of the trainers in pounds.
(b) Use £2 = $3 to show that the approximate cost of the trainers is £90.
$135 ÷ 3 = 45
45 × 2 = 90
(2)
(c) Is using £2 = $3 instead of using £1 = $ 1.45075 a sensible way for Sanjay to work out the cost of the trainers in pounds?
You must give a reason for your answer.
Yes it is.
It makes it much easier to calculate the cost of something to the nearest pound without using a calculator. Using $1.5 instead of $1.45075 makes sense.

Question 3.
Here are the first five terms of a Fibonacci sequence.
1 3 4 7 11
The rule for the sequence is:
‘The next term is the sum of the previous two terms.’
(a) Find the 8th term of this sequence.
6th term: 7+11 = 18 7th term: 11 + 18 = 29 8th term: 29 + 18= 47
47 (1)
The first three terms of a different sequence which follows the same rule are:
m 2n m + 2n
(b) Show that the 6th term of this sequence is 3m +10n
4th term: m + 2n + 2n = m + 4n
5th term: m + 4n + m + 2n = 2m + 6n
6th term: 2m + 6n + m + 4n = 3m + 10n
(2) Given that the 3rd term is 5 and the 6th term is 23,
(c) Find the value of m and the value of n 3m +10n = 23 3m +10n = 23
m + 2n = 5 × 3 3m + 6n = 15
- 4n = 8
n = 2 m + 2n = 5 m + 4 = 5 so m = 1
m = 1
n = 2

A = 𝑥: 𝑥 is a factor of 12 1, 2, 3, 4, 6
B = 𝑥:𝒙 is a multiple of 3 3, 6, 9
(a) Complete the Venn diagram to show the elements of each set.
(3)
(b) A is changed to A = 𝑥: 𝑥 is a factor of 15 .
James says that the number of elements in A U B stays the same. Is James right? Give a reason why.
NO, it doesn’t stay the same, since 6 is not a factor of 15

Question 5.
Julie is thinking of having a water meter.
These are the two ways she can pay for the water she uses.
Julie uses on average, 140 litres of water each day. Use the information above to determine whether or not Julie should have a water meter.
With the water meter cost would be:
140 litres = 0.140 cubic metres
Cost of 0.140 cubic metre per day: 0.140 × £1.95 = £0.273
Cost over 365 days: 365 × £0.273 = £99.645
Total cost £104.82 + £99.645 = £204.465 which is approx £205
Since £205 is less than £283- it is cheaper for Julie to have a water meter.

Question 7.
Sarah works for a company that delivers parcels.
One day the company delivered 80 parcels. The table shows information about the weights, in kg, of these parcels.
(a) Complete the cumulative frequency table.
(1)
(b) On the grid draw a cumulative graph to represent this data. (2)
Sarah says, "75 % of the parcels weigh less than 3.4 kg."
(c) Is Sarah correct? You must show how you get your answer.
UQ = 3.6 > 3.4 so no she is not correct

Question 13.
Diagram not drawn accurately.
PCR and QCS are diameters of a circle. C is the centre of the circle.
Prove that triangles PQR and QRS are congruent.
RHS SCQ = PCR both diameters of circle (hypotenuse) PQR = QRS = 90° angles in a semicircle are right angled QR shared side or SCQ = PCR both diameters of circle PQR = QRS = 90° angles in a semicircle are right angled RPQ = QSR angles in same segment are equal.
So PRQ = SQR (180° = in a triangle).
Therefore PQR and QCS are congruent ASA (Angle Side Angle)
