    6 The Adventure Society chartered an air-conditioned bus for $1500 to take a group of x

    members to Malaysia for a trekking trip.

    It was agreed that each member of the group would pay an equal share of this transport

    fee.

    (a) Write down an expression, in terms of x, for the amount of transport fee each member of the group had to pay. [1]

    On the day of departure, three members of the group could not make it for the trip.

    The Adventure Society decided that it would contribute $140 from its funds and that the

    balance of the transport fee was to be shared equally by the remaining members.

    (b) Write down an expression, in terms of x, for the transport fee that each remaining

    member had to pay after the three members had withdrawn from the trip. [1]

    (c) If each of the remaining members had to pay an additional $6 in order to cover the

    transport fee, form an equation in x and show that it reduces to

    3x2 + 61x – 2250 = 0. [3]

    (d) Solve the equation 3x2 + 61x – 2250 = 0, giving the answers correct to three decimal places. [3]

    (e) Hence find the transport fee that each member had to pay if all the members were present for the trip. [1]

    9 Answer the whole of this question on a sheet of graph paper.

    In a particular week, a tailor makes a profit of $y when he produces x shirts, where the

    variables x and y are connected by the equation

    xxy 10020310

    1.

    The table below shows the profit the tailor makes when he produces different number of

    shirts.

    (a) Suggest a reason for y = –200 when x = 0. [1]

    (b) Calculate the value of p. [1]

    (c) Using a scale of 2 cm to represent 10 shirts, draw a horizontal axis for 0 ≤ x ≤ 80.

    Using a scale of 2 cm to represent $100, draw a vertical axis for –200 ≤ y ≤ 700.

    On your axes, plot the points given in the table and join them with a

    smooth curve. [3]

    (d) Use your graph to estimate

    (i) the profit made when 25 shirts are produced. [1]

    (ii) the maximum possible profit of the tailor in a week, and the

    corresponding profit per shirt when the profit is maximum. [2]

    (iii) the gradient of the curve at the point where the number of shirts

    produced is 40. [2]

    (e) By drawing a suitable straight line, find the two values of x for which the average

    profit per shirt is $9. [2]

    10 The cumulative frequency graph shows the distribution of weekly wages of 800 workers

    in Company A.

    (a) Find

    (i) the median wage, [1]

    (ii) the interquartile range, [2]

    (iii) the thirtieth percentile wage. [1]

    (b) 15% of the workers earn more than $w. Find w. [1]

    (c) If two workers are selected at random, find the probability that one worker

    selected earns not more than $60 and the other earns more than $80. [2]

    (d) If the company decides to increase the wages of each of the workers by 10%,

    describe how the cumulative frequency curve will differ from the given curve.
