Carlos has worked out the correct
answer as all pieces of wood can vary
between 145 cm and 155 cm, so you
must multiply the upper and lower
bounds by 3.
Pepe is incorrect as he has multiplied the
rounded number by three then worked
out +/− 5 cm from that answer instead of
+/− 15 cm from that answer (as there are
three pieces of wood).

Using the exterior angle property,
A = 122 − 59 = 63 and E = 122 − 63 = 59.
The third angle is 180 − 122 = 58, so both
triangles have angles of the same size.
13 It is correct. Substitute values of n. To show it
algebraically requires factorising.

he works out the area of the circle he doesn’t
use the correct radius. He actually uses the
diameter of 11 cm rather than the radius of

Learner’s own answer and explanation. For
example: He cannot be correct because if
you round both sides up and add them to
6 you get 6 + 5 + 13 = 24. This is nearly 2 m
less than the perimeter, so the third side
must be at least 2 m more than 6 m.

fractions are all different and are all prime
numbers or 1, then you will not be able
to cancel. When one of the numerators
and denominators are the same, then you
will be able to cancel. When one of the
numerators and denominators are even,
then you will be able to cancel. When one
of the numerators and denominators are
a multiple of each other, then you will be

13 Timo’s method is incorrect. Learner’s
own explanation. For example: He has
reversed the order of the operations, but
he hasn’t used inverse operations to reverse
the actual operations. Correct solution
is: 4th term = 72 + 8 = 80, 80 ÷ 2 = 40,
3rd term = 40 + 8 = 48, 48 ÷ 2 = 24.

Sequence is −4, 2, −10, 86, …
16 First term = −10. Learner’s own working. For
example: 4th term = 512, 3rd term = 0, reverse
the function so rule is cube root and subtract ?.

512 − ? = 0

?=8
The reverse function is cube root and subtract 8.

Sofia is correct. Learner’s own explanation.

Zara is incorrect. Learner’s own explanation.
For example: When you add 1 to the positive
and negative of the same number you get
different answers, so when you square these
answers, your final answers will be different,
e.g. (2 + 1)2 = 32 = 9 and (−2 + 1)2 = (−1)2 = 1.

10 a, b Learner’s own answers for grouping the
functions: For example:
One step functions: B, F, G, L
Two step functions: A, C, D, E, H, I, J, K
• Contains a power: A, C, D, F, H, J
Contains a root: B, E, I, K
Contains no powers or roots: G, L
• Contains the number 4: A, D, E, L
Contains the number 9: G, H, I, K
Contains the number 2: C, J
Contains no numbers: B, F
• Contains fractions: C, D, E, I
Contains no fractions: A, B, F, G, H, J,
K, L
11 Sofia and Zara are both correct. The table of
values works for both equations.

13 Marcus is incorrect. Learner’s own
explanations. For example:
His conjecture is correct for the first
function y = (x − 5)4. When you work out
x − 5, if the answer is positive or negative,
once you have raised it to the power of 4,
the answer is always positive. For example,
34 = (−3)4 = 81.
His conjecture is incorrect for the second
function y = 5 − x5. If x5 is greater than 5, the
y-value will be negative. For example: when
x = 2, y = 5 − 25 = 5 − 32 = −27.

a
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
The score on one dice does not affect the
score on the other dice.
b
Yes. For example: The score on one dice
does not affect the score on the other dice.
c
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
If you get an even number you cannot get
an odd number on the same dice and vice
versa.
a
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
The thunderstorm increases the
probability that Zara will be late.
b
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
They are not independent. If Arun is late
on Monday he will probably make more
effort not to be late on Tuesday.

c
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
The probability of the letter being in the
word HEAD is the same, whether it is in
the word FACE or not.
d
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
If the letter is in the word FACE, then
P(in EACH) = 0.75. If the letter is not in
the word FACE it is B, D, G or H and
P(in EACH) = 0.25. The probabilities
are different, so the events are not
independent.
a
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
If the blue dice is 6 then P(Y) = P(yellow
1
is 6) = 6 ; If the blue dice is not 6 it will
be another number and then P(Y) is
1
again . The same probability implies
6
independent events.
b
Learner’s own explanation. For example:
If blue is 6 then P(Z) = P(total of 12) =
1
4
1
6
of 12 is impossible and P(Z) = 0. The
probabilities are different, so the events

No, Sienna cannot fill in the correct
frequencies in her table. Learner’s own
explanation. For example: From the
first table Sienna knows that there are
two girls with a mass between 7.0 and
7.1 kg. However, this does not tell her
how many girls had masses between
7.0 and 7.05 kg and how many girls
had masses between 7.05 and 7.1 kg,
so it is impossible for her to complete
her table. She would have to find the
original data, before it was grouped, in
order to group it the way she wants to.

Learner’s own scatter graph with axes
labelled as in the graph in the question.
Points (3, 5), (11, 10), (18, 18), (19, 20),

(7, 6), (5, 5), (16, 15), (10, 11), (9, 7) and
(16, 16) marked with crosses.
A. Learner’s own explanation. For
example: The scatter graph is showing a
positive correlation. This happens when
as one value increases, the other value also
increases. In this case, as the French results
increase, the Spanish results also increase.
Learner’s own scatter graph with axes

B. Learner’s own explanation. For
example: The scatter graph is showing a
negative correlation. This happens when
as one value increases, the other value
decreases. In this case, as the art results
increase, the science results decrease.
Learner’s own scatter graph. Horizontal
axis labelled ‘Hours reading’. Vertical axis
labelled ‘Spelling test score’. Both axes
shown from 0 to 25. Points (4, 6), (13, 12),
(20, 20), (9, 8), (18, 17), (1, 2), (11, 13),

Positive correlation. The more hours
reading a student does, the better their
spelling test score.
c
Learner’s own line of best fit. Strong
positive correlation.
d
Learner’s own estimate from their line of

the range of the data, because you do not
know what happens beyond the data you
are given.

Learner’s own scatter graph. Horizontal
axis labelled ‘Number of packets of

Vertical axis labelled ‘Number of packets

Points (15, 12), (12, 22), (26, 14), (22, 7),
b
No correlation. The number of packets
of cookies sold has no relationship to the
number of packets of oranges sold.
a
Learner’s own answers. For example:
Negative correlation because learners
are often good at maths and science or
languages and drama, but are not good at
all these subjects.
b
Learner’s own scatter graph. Horizontal
axis labelled ‘Maths result’ and shown
from 0 to 100. Vertical axis labelled
‘Drama result’ and shown from 0 to 100.
Points (72, 27), (34, 62), (81, 19), (57, 41),
(32, 66), (78, 25), (65, 37), (67, 32),
(53, 59), (61, 48), (35, 63), (42, 59),
(55, 40), (79, 35) and (31, 77) plotted.
c
Strong negative correlation. The better the
students’ result in maths, the worse their
drama result.
d
Learner’s own answer.
e
Learner’s own line of best fit.
f
Learner’s own estimate from their line of
best fit.
g
No, because 10% for drama lies outside
the range of the data we are given, so we
cannot predict what will happen.
6
Learner’s own explanation. For example: It is
a coincidence that the graph shows a negative
correlation. While it might be true that if you
have no hair or short hair you need a hat to
keep your head warm or protect it from the
sun, it does not mean that you are going to
buy lots of hats. In this study, the people with
longer hair might have big families, and so they
bought lots of hats for their family members.
The number of hats you need does not depend
on the length of your hair. It depends on
whether you like to wear hats or not.
7
a
Positive correlation. The better the score in
algebra, the better the score in geometry.

Learner’s own answers and
explanations. For example: I think the
answers in parts a and b are the more
accurate answers because the groups
are smaller in size so the individual
values are more likely to be nearer the
midpoints in the smaller groups than
in the bigger groups. The range is the
same for both sets of answers because
the smallest and greatest possible
values are the same.
ii
Learner’s own answers and
explanations. For example: The
answers in parts d and e were quicker
to work out because there were

The estimate of the mean from table

The accurate median is within both

However, the midpoint of 12–18 is 15

median of 15.5 is closer to the
midpoint of the median class for table

Mean mass of chicks after hatching =
30 × 4 + 34 × 8 + 38 × 6 + 42 × 2
= 35.2 g.
20
Mean mass of chicks at eight weeks old =
0.8 × 3 + 1 × 6 + 1.2 × 7 + 1.4 × 4
= 1.12 kg.
20
1120 ÷ 35.2 = 31.8 > 30
So, the mean mass of the chicks at eight weeks
old is more than 30 times the mean mass of
the chicks after hatching.
