A-Level Maths H1 Quiz Answers - Graphs Coordinate Geometry

Section A: Scatter Diagrams and Correlation

(a) Enter data into lists (L1, L2) $\rightarrow$ Stat Plot $\rightarrow$ On $\rightarrow$ Select Scatter plot $\rightarrow$ Zoom Stat. [1] (b) Strong positive linear correlation. [1]
(a) Strong (since $|r|$ is close to 1) and negative (since $r < 0$ ). [2] (b) No. Correlation does not imply causation. [2]
(a) Points trending downwards from top-left to bottom-right. [2] (b) Negative. [1]
(a) For every 1 unit increase in $x$ , $y$ is estimated to increase by 4.2 units on average. [2] (b) $y = 4.2(10) + 15.8 = 57.8$ . [1]
(a) Extrapolation. [1] (b) The value $x=120$ is far outside the range of the original data (10-50); the linear trend may not continue. [2]
(a) $\bar{x} = 50/10 = 5$ ; $\bar{y} = 100/10 = 10$ . [2] (b) $m = \frac{\sum xy - n\bar{x}\bar{y}}{\sum x^2 - n\bar{x}^2} = \frac{600 - 10(5)(10)}{300 - 10(5^2)} = \frac{600-500}{300-250} = \frac{100}{50} = 2$ . [3]
(a) No. $r$ only measures the strength of a linear relationship. For a curved relationship, $r$ will underestimate the strength of the association. [2]

Section B: Regression and Linear Modelling

(a) $y = 100$ . [1] (b) $50 = -2.5x + 100 \rightarrow -50 = -2.5x \rightarrow x = 20$ . [2]
(a) $y = 1.2x + 5$ (The intercept $c$ increases by 10). [2] (b) The gradient $m$ is halved (since $y = m(2x) + c$ is not the case, but rather the spread of $x$ doubles, $m_{new} = m_{old}/2$ ). [2]
(a) $\Delta T = -0.15 \times 10 = -1.5$ units. [2] (b) $T = -0.15(60) + 32 = -9 + 32 = 23$ . [2]
(a) $3.1(5) + 12.4 = 15.5 + 12.4 = 27.9$ . Matches $\bar{y}$ . [2] (b) Not necessarily. It depends on how far the point $(6, 30)$ is from the existing line and its influence on the sum of squares. [2]
(a) Points lie very close to the regression line. [2] (b) Points would be widely scattered with no clear linear trend. [2]
(a) No. The regression of $x$ on $y$ minimizes vertical distances to the $x$ -axis, while $y$ on $x$ minimizes vertical distances to the $y$ -axis. [2] (b) $0.4y = x - 2 \rightarrow y = 2.5x - 5$ . [2]
(a) 100. [1] (b) $52 = 5.2 \times \Delta x \rightarrow \Delta x = 10$ . [2]

Section C: Coordinate Geometry and Curve Analysis

(a) $y' = 2(0.5)e^{0.5x} = e^{0.5x}$ . At $x=0, y' = e^0 = 1$ . [2] (b) Point is $(0, 2)$ . $y - 2 = 1(x - 0) \rightarrow y = x + 2$ . [3]
(a) $0 = \ln(x+2) \rightarrow e^0 = x+2 \rightarrow 1 = x+2 \rightarrow x = -1$ . [2] (b) $x+2 = 0 \rightarrow x = -2$ . [2]
(a) $y' = -4(x-1)^{-2}$ . Set $-4/(x-1)^2 = -4 \rightarrow (x-1)^2 = 1 \rightarrow x-1 = \pm 1$ . $x=2$ or $x=0$ . For $x=2, y=4$ . For $x=0, y=-4$ . (Either point acceptable). [3] (b) If $(2, 4)$ , $m_{tangent} = -4 \rightarrow m_{normal} = 1/4$ . $y - 4 = 0.25(x-2) \rightarrow y = 0.25x + 3.5$ . [3]
(a) $y' = 2x - 4$ . Set $2x-4=0 \rightarrow x=2$ . $y = 2^2 - 4(2) + 7 = 3$ . Point $(2, 3)$ . [3] (b) $y'' = 2$ . Since $y'' > 0$ , it is a local minimum. [2]
(a) $\int_0^2 e^x dx$ . [2] (b) $[e^x]_0^2 = e^2 - e^0 = e^2 - 1$ . [2]
(a) $m = (13-5)/(6-2) = 8/4 = 2$ . $y - 5 = 2(x-2) \rightarrow y = 2x + 1$ . [2] (b) $x^2 + 1 = 2x + 1 \rightarrow x^2 - 2x = 0 \rightarrow x(x-2) = 0$ . $x=0$ or $x=2$ . Points $(0, 1)$ and $(2, 5)$ . [4]
