  2. Question 2written answer · 19 marks

    Solve: a) 36 / (2x + 1) = 4 b) 7(2x + 1) - 3(6 - 3x) = -57 c) cube_root(9^2 / x) + 3 = 6 d) 3 / (2x + 7) = 5 / (x + 21) e) (2x - 2/3) / (4/5 - x) = 0 f) Expand and simplify: (a^2 + b)(a^2 - b). g) Expand and simplify: 3x(x + 2) - 2(x - x^2). h) Make x the subject of the formula: y = (x/4)^5 + 6. (Currently y is the subject.) i) Solve cube_root(3 * sqrt((3x+3)/(1/3))) = 3.

  3. Question 3written answer · 6 marks

    A formula for p is p = n^2 - n + 11. a) Complete this table by finding the value of p when n = 1, n = 3, n = 6, n = 9 and n = 11 (other values given: n=2 p=13, n=4 p=23, n=5 p=31, n=7 p=53, n=8 p=67, n=10 p=101). b) Circle the values of p in the table that are prime. c) Holly thinks that when n is any positive whole number the formula q = n^2 - n + 41 always gives values of q that are prime.
