Circle the number that is closest in value to (1.1)/(0.0204) [From selection of 5, 6, 50, 60] [Edit of 2018 Paper 1 Q4]

To simplify the question, the denominator can be rounded to 0.02 (to find an estimate), which comes out to be 1.1/0.02=55, which suggests that the answer is between 50 and 60, and not the other two.Now, a...

A sphere has a surface area of 4m^2, radius r. Another sphere has radius 2r. Calculate the Volume of the second sphere in M^3.

The surface area of a sphere can be calculated using Area = 4 x Pi x r^2. Since we know the surface are of the first sphere is 4m^2, we can write: 4 = 4 x Pi x r^2. This simplifies to r^2 = 0.318. Taking ...

Find the two points of intersection of the graphs 2x+y=7 and x^2-8x+7=y. Solve using only algebraic methods (no graphical).

We treat this problem as two simultaneous equations, using our knowledge that when two graphs intersect, they simultaneously have the same solution. The second equation (quadratic equation) is already in ...

A curve C has equation y = x^2 − 2x − 24sqrt x, x > 0. Prove that it has a stationary point at x=4.

A stationary point is where the curve has 0 gradient. So to prove that x=4 is a stationary point, we must find the equation of the first derivative. To do this, differentiate x2 - 2x - 24sqrtx....
