Question 4.
Sian is driving to visit her friend Annabelle. She has to drive 28 miles to get to Annabelleโs house, and needs to get there within 45 minutes. The speed limit on the road is 40 mph. Sian thinks โI will need to drive faster than the speed limit to travel 28 miles in 45 minutes.โ Is Sian right? You must show how you get your answer.
Speed= !"#$%&'(!"#$
Speed = !" !"#$%!" !"#$%&'
= 0.62222 miles/minute
0.62222 x 60 = 37.3333 mph
No- she will not have to break the speed limit- she can keep below 40mph and travel at just over 37mph.

Question 14.
Prove algebraically that (2n + 3)2 โ (2n โ 3)2 is a multiple of 8, for all positive integer values of n.
Using difference of two squares
((2n + 3) + (2n โ 3))((2n + 3) - (2n โ 3)) = 6(4n)
= 24n
= 8(3n) (M1) (P1)
Therefore is a multiple of 8 (C1)

Question 22.
The diagram shows a container for salt.
The container is a cylinder on top of a cone. The cylinder has a radius of 3m and a height of hm. The cone has a base radius of 3m and a vertical height of 4m. The container is empty. The container is then filled with salt at a constant rate. After 5 hours the depth of the salt is 6 metres above the vertex of the cone. After 9 hours the container is full of salt. Work out the value of h. Give your answer as a fraction in its simplest form. You must show all your working.
