The table below shows the grouped frequency of times, \(t\) minutes, taken by 120 students to complete a mathematics puzzle:

\(0 < t \le 10\): 8 students
\(10 < t \le 20\): 16 students
\(20 < t \le 30\): 34 students
\(30 < t \le 40\): 38 students
\(40 < t \le 50\): 18 students
\(50 < t \le 60\): 6 students

(a) Complete the cumulative frequency table for this data:
\(t \le 10\): ___
\(t \le 20\): ___
\(t \le 30\): ___
\(t \le 40\): ___
\(t \le 50\): ___
\(t \le 60\): ___

(b) Use linear interpolation to calculate an estimate of:
(i) the median time,
(ii) the interquartile range of the times.

(c) A student is chosen at random. Find the probability that this student took more than 35 minutes to complete the puzzle.

解題

(a) To complete the cumulative frequency table, we sum the frequencies progressively:
\(t \le 10\): 8
\(t \le 20\): 8 + 16 = 24
\(t \le 30\): 24 + 34 = 58
\(t \le 40\): 58 + 38 = 96
\(t \le 50\): 96 + 18 = 114
\(t \le 60\): 114 + 6 = 120

(b)(i) The median position is \(120 / 2 = 60\). The 60th student lies in the interval \(30 < t \le 40\).
Median = \(30 + \frac{60 - 58}{38} \times 10 = 30 + \frac{2}{38} \times 10 \approx 30.5\) minutes.

(b)(ii) The lower quartile (LQ) is at position 30, which lies in the interval \(20 < t \le 30\).
LQ = \(20 + \frac{30 - 24}{34} \times 10 = 20 + 1.765 = 21.76\) minutes.
The upper quartile (UQ) is at position 90, which lies in the interval \(30 < t \le 40\).
UQ = \(30 + \frac{90 - 58}{38} \times 10 = 30 + 8.421 = 38.42\) minutes.
Interquartile range (IQR) = \(38.421 - 21.765 = 16.656 \approx 16.7\) minutes.

(c) Using linear interpolation, we find the number of students taking 35 minutes or less. Since 35 is halfway in the \(30 < t \le 40\) interval, the number of students in the range \(30 < t \le 35\) is \(\frac{35-30}{10} \times 38 = 19\).
Cumulative frequency up to 35 minutes = \(58 + 19 = 77\).
The number of students taking more than 35 minutes = \(120 - 77 = 43\).
Probability = \(\frac{43}{120} \approx 0.358\).

Triangle \(A\) has vertices at \((1, 1)\), \((3, 1)\), and \((3, 4)\).

(a) Triangle \(A\) is mapped onto triangle \(B\) by a reflection in the line \(y = -x\). Find the coordinates of the vertices of triangle \(B\).

(b) Triangle \(A\) is mapped onto triangle \(C\) by a shear with the \(x\)-axis invariant and a shear factor of 2. Find the coordinates of the vertices of triangle \(C\).

(c) Describe fully the single transformation that maps triangle \(B\) onto triangle \(A\).

(d) Find the \(2 \times 2\) matrix representing the transformation in part (b).
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The reflection in the line \(y = -x\) maps each point \((x, y)\) to \((-y, -x)\).
Applying this to the vertices of triangle \(A\):
- \((1, 1) \to (-1, -1)\)
- \((3, 1) \to (-1, -3)\)
- \((3, 4) \to (-4, -3)\)
Thus, the vertices of triangle \(B\) are \((-1, -1)\), \((-1, -3)\), and \((-4, -3)\).

(b) A shear with the \(x\)-axis invariant and shear factor 2 maps each point \((x, y)\) to \((x + 2y, y)\).
Applying this to the vertices of triangle \(A\):
- \((1, 1) \to (1 + 2(1), 1) = (3, 1)\)
- \((3, 1) \to (3 + 2(1), 1) = (5, 1)\)
- \((3, 4) \to (3 + 2(4), 4) = (11, 4)\)
Thus, the vertices of triangle \(C\) are \((3, 1)\), \((5, 1)\), and \((11, 4)\).

(c) Since triangle \(B\) is obtained from triangle \(A\) by reflection in the line \(y = -x\), and a reflection is its own inverse, the single transformation mapping \(B\) back to \(A\) is also a reflection in the line \(y = -x\).

(d) The standard matrix representing a shear with the \(x\)-axis invariant and shear factor \(k\) is \(\begin{pmatrix} 1 & k \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}\). For \(k = 2\), this is \(\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}\).

A solid toy is made in the shape of a cylinder of radius \(r\) cm and height \(3r\) cm, with a hemisphere of radius \(r\) cm attached to one flat end and a cone of radius \(r\) cm and height \(2r\) cm attached to the other flat end.

(a) Show that the total volume of the toy, in terms of \(\pi\) and \(r\), is \(\frac{13}{3}\pi r^3\) cm\(^3\).

(b) Given that the total volume of the toy is 250 cm\(^3\), find the value of \(r\), correct to 3 significant figures.

(c) For this toy, calculate the total surface area, correct to 3 significant figures.
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The total volume is the sum of the volumes of the cylinder, the hemisphere, and the cone:
- Volume of cylinder = \(\pi r^2 h = \pi r^2 (3r) = 3\pi r^3\)
- Volume of hemisphere = \(\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\)
- Volume of cone = \(\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 (2r) = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\)
Total Volume = \(3\pi r^3 + \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 + \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 = \left(3 + \frac{4}{3}\right)\pi r^3 = \frac{13}{3}\pi r^3\) cm\(^3\).

(b) Setting the volume equation to 250:
\(\frac{13}{3}\pi r^3 = 250 \implies r^3 = \frac{750}{13\pi} \approx 18.3639\)
\(r = \sqrt[3]{18.3639} \approx 2.638 \approx 2.64\) cm.

(c) The total surface area of the toy consists of:
- Curved surface of hemisphere = \(2\pi r^2\)
- Curved surface of cylinder = \(2\pi r h = 2\pi r (3r) = 6\pi r^2\)
- Curved surface of cone = \(\pi r l\), where \(l\) is the slant height.
\(l = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} = \sqrt{r^2 + (2r)^2} = \sqrt{5r^2} = r\sqrt{5}\).
Curved surface of cone = \(\pi r (r\sqrt{5}) = \sqrt{5}\pi r^2\).
Total Surface Area = \(2\pi r^2 + 6\pi r^2 + \sqrt{5}\pi r^2 = (8 + \sqrt{5})\pi r^2\).
Using \(r = 2.6382\):
Total Surface Area = \((8 + \sqrt{5})\pi (2.6382)^2 \approx 10.236 \times \pi \times 6.960 \approx 223.8 \approx 224\) cm\(^2\).

評分準則

Part (a): [3 marks]
- M1 for writing cylinder volume \(3\pi r^3\)
- M1 for writing cone volume \(\frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\)

The masses, \(m\) grams, of 120 apples harvested from an orchard are recorded. A cumulative frequency polygon is constructed by plotting the points \((60, 0)\), \((80, 8)\), \((100, 30)\), \((120, 75)\), \((140, 105)\), and \((160, 120)\), and connecting them with straight line segments.

(a) Write down the cumulative frequency of apples with a mass of:
(i) 100g or less [1]
(ii) 140g or less [1]

(b) Using the cumulative frequency polygon:
(i) Estimate the median mass of the apples. [3]
(ii) Estimate the interquartile range of the masses. [3]
(iii) Calculate the percentage of apples that have a mass greater than 135g. [3]
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) Read directly from the given points:
(i) At mass 100g, the cumulative frequency is 30.
(ii) At mass 140g, the cumulative frequency is 105.

(b)(i) The median is at cumulative frequency \(\frac{120}{2} = 60\).
The value 60 lies in the interval between the points \((100, 30)\) and \((120, 75)\).
Using linear interpolation:
\(\frac{x - 100}{120 - 100} =
\frac{60 - 30}{75 - 30}\)
\(\frac{x - 100}{20} = \frac{30}{45}\)
\(x - 100 = 13.33\)
\(x \approx 113.3\text{ g}\) (or 113g to 3 s.f.).

(ii) The lower quartile (\(Q_1\)) is at cumulative frequency \(120 \times 0.25 = 30\).
From the point \((100, 30)\), \(Q_1 = 100\text{ g}\).
The upper quartile (\(Q_3\)) is at cumulative frequency \(120 \times 0.75 = 90\).
The value 90 lies between \((120, 75)\) and \((140, 105)\).
Using linear interpolation:
\(\frac{x - 120}{140 - 120} = \frac{90 - 75}{105 - 75}\)
\(\frac{x - 120}{20} = \frac{15}{30}\)
\(x - 120 = 10\)
\(Q_3 = 130\text{ g}\).
The interquartile range is \(IQR = Q_3 - Q_1 = 130 - 100 = 30\text{ g}\).

(iii) A mass of 135g lies between the points \((120, 75)\) and \((140, 105)\).
Using linear interpolation to find the cumulative frequency \(CF\) at 135g:
\(\frac{CF - 75}{105 - 75} = \frac{135 - 120}{140 - 120}\)
\(\frac{CF - 75}{30} = \frac{15}{20}\)
\(CF - 75 = 22.5\)
\(CF = 97.5\).
The number of apples with a mass greater than 135g is \(120 - 97.5 = 22.5\).
The percentage is \(\frac{22.5}{120} \times 100\% = 18.75\%\).

評分準則

(a)(i) B1 for 30
(a)(ii) B1 for 105
(b)(i) M1 for attempting to find the mass at cumulative frequency 60. M1 for setting up a correct interpolation expression, e.g. \(100 + 20 \times \frac{30}{45}\). A1 for 113 (or 113.3).
(b)(ii) B1 for \(Q_1 = 100\). M1 for finding \(Q_3 = 130\) by interpolation or reading. A1 for \(IQR = 30\).
(b)(iii) M1 for finding the cumulative frequency at 135g as 97.5. M1 for calculating \(120 - 97.5\) to find the number of apples (22.5). A1 for 18.75% (or 18.8%).

A solid toy is made by joining a solid cone of radius \(r\) cm and height \(h\) cm to a solid cylinder of radius \(r\) cm and height \(3r\) cm.

(a) The total volume of the toy is \(500\text{ cm}^3\). Show that \(h = \frac{1500}{\pi r^2} - 9r\). [3]

(b) In a specific model of this toy, the height of the cone is designed to be equal to its radius, so \(h = r\).
(i) Calculate the value of \(r\), correct to 3 significant figures. [3]
(ii) Calculate the total surface area of this specific model, correct to 3 significant figures. (Note: The surface area includes the curved surface of the cone, the curved surface of the cylinder, and the flat circular base of the cylinder, but not the circular faces where they join.) [5]
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The total volume of the toy is the sum of the volumes of the cone and the cylinder:
\(V = V_{\text{cone}} + V_{\text{cylinder}}\)
\(500 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h + \pi r^2 (3r)\)
\(500 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h + 3\pi r^3\)
Multiply the entire equation by 3 to clear the fraction:
\(1500 = \pi r^2 h + 9\pi r^3\)
Isolate the term containing \(h\):
\(\pi r^2 h = 1500 - 9\pi r^3\)
Divide by \(\pi r^2\):
\(h = \frac{1500 - 9\pi r^3}{\pi r^2} = \frac{1500}{\pi r^2} - 9r\).

(b)(i) When \(h = r\), substitute this into the volume formula:
\(500 = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^3 + 3\pi r^3\)
\(500 = \frac{10}{3}\pi r^3\)
\(\pi r^3 = 150\)
\(r^3 = \frac{150}{\pi}\)
\(r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{150}{\pi}} \approx 3.6278\text{ cm}\) (or 3.63 cm to 3 s.f.).

(ii) The total surface area consists of:
1. Curved surface of cone: \(\pi r l\), where \(l = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2}\). Since \(h = r\), \(l = \sqrt{r^2 + r^2} = r\sqrt{2}\).
Area \(= \pi r (r\sqrt{2}) = \pi r^2 \sqrt{2}\).
2. Curved surface of cylinder: \(2\pi r (3r) = 6\pi r^2\).
3. Circular base of cylinder: \(\pi r^2\).

Total Surface Area \(A = \pi r^2 \sqrt{2} + 6\pi r^2 + \pi r^2 = (7 + \sqrt{2})\pi r^2\).
Using \(r = 3.6278\):
\(A = (7 + \sqrt{2}) \pi (3.6278)^2 \approx 8.4142 \times \pi \times 13.161 \approx 347.9\text{ cm}^2\) (or 348 \(\text{cm}^2\) to 3 s.f.).

查看答案詳解

解題

(a) First, find angle \(\angle BAC\):
\(\angle BAC = 130^\circ - 55^\circ = 75^\circ\).
Use the Cosine Rule in \(\triangle ABC\) to find the length of \(BC\):
\(BC^2 = AB^2 + AC^2 - 2(AB)(AC)\cos(\angle BAC)\)
\(BC^2 = 18^2 + 25^2 - 2(18)(25)\cos(75^\circ)\)
\(BC^2 = 324 + 625 - 900(0.258819)\)
\(BC^2 = 949 - 232.937 = 716.063\)
\(BC = \sqrt{716.063} \approx 26.759\text{ km}\) (or 26.8 km to 3 s.f.).

(b) Use the Sine Rule to find \(\angle ABC\):
\(\frac{\sin(\angle ABC)}{AC} = \frac{\sin(\angle BAC)}{BC}\)
\(\frac{\sin(\angle ABC)}{25} = \frac{\sin(75^\circ)}{26.759}\)
\(\sin(\angle ABC) = \frac{25 \sin(75^\circ)}{26.759} \approx \frac{25 \times 0.965926}{26.759} \approx 0.90243\)
\(\angle ABC = \arcsin(0.90243) \approx 64.48^\circ\).

Now, calculate the bearing:
The bearing of \(B\) from \(A\) is \(055^\circ\). Thus, the line \(AB\) has a back-bearing of \(180^\circ + 55^\circ = 235^\circ\) (measured clockwise from North at \(B\)).
Since \(C\) lies to the east of the line \(AB\) from \(B\)'s perspective, the bearing of \(C\) from \(B\) is:
\(235^\circ - \angle ABC = 235^\circ - 64.48^\circ = 170.52^\circ\).
To the nearest degree, the bearing is \(171^\circ\).

(c) The shortest distance from port \(A\) to the path \(BC\) is the perpendicular distance \(d\) from \(A\) to the line \(BC\).
In \(\triangle ABC\):
\(d = AB \sin(\angle ABC)\)
\(d = 18 \sin(64.48^\circ)\)
\(d \approx 18 \times 0.90243 \approx 16.24\text{ km}\) (or 16.2 km to 3 s.f.).

(d) Two students are chosen at random from the 160 students. Find the probability that they both took 10 minutes or less to complete the puzzle.
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) Cumulative frequencies are calculated by adding the frequencies sequentially:
- \(\le 10\): \(12\)
- \(\le 20\): \(12 + 26 = 38\)
- \(\le 30\): \(38 + 54 = 92\)
- \(\le 40\): \(92 + 40 = 132\)
- \(\le 50\): \(132 + 20 = 152\)
- \(\le 60\): \(152 + 8 = 160\)

(b) Estimate of the mean is calculated using the midpoint of each interval:
- \(0 < t \le 10\): midpoint = 5, product = \(5 \times 12 = 60\)
- \(10 < t \le 20\): midpoint = 15, product = \(15 \times 26 = 390\)
- \(20 < t \le 30\): midpoint = 25, product = \(25 \times 54 = 1350\)
- \(30 < t \le 40\): midpoint = 35, product = \(35 \times 40 = 1400\)
- \(40 < t \le 50\): midpoint = 45, product = \(45 \times 20 = 900\)
- \(50 < t \le 60\): midpoint = 55, product = \(55 \times 8 = 440\)

Sum of products = \(60 + 390 + 1350 + 1400 + 900 + 440 = 4540\).
Estimated Mean = \(\frac{4540}{160} = 28.375\) minutes.

(c) For the interval \(30 < t \le 40\), the frequency is 40.
Using linear interpolation, the number of students taking between 30 and 38 minutes is:
\(\frac{38 - 30}{40 - 30} \times 40 = \frac{8}{10} \times 40 = 32\) students.
Thus, the number of students in this interval taking more than 38 minutes is \(40 - 32 = 8\) students.
Additionally, all students in intervals \(40 < t \le 50\) and \(50 < t \le 60\) took more than 38 minutes, which is \(20 + 8 = 28\) students.
Total students taking more than 38 minutes = \(8 + 28 = 36\).
Percentage = \(\frac{36}{160} \times 100 = 22.5\%\).

(d) There are 12 students who took 10 minutes or less.
Probability of first student taking \(\le 10\) mins = \(\frac{12}{160}\).
Probability of second student taking \(\le 10\) mins (without replacement) = \(\frac{11}{159}\).
Combined probability = \(\frac{12}{160} \times \frac{11}{159} = \frac{132}{25440} = \frac{11}{2120} \approx 0.00519\).

Consider the functions \( f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 5 \) and \( g(x) = 2x - 3 \).

(a) Find the coordinates of the local maximum point and the local minimum point of \( y = f(x) \). Give your answers to 3 significant figures.

(b) Write down the gradient of the straight line \( y = g(x) \).

(c) Find the \(x\)-coordinates of the three points of intersection of the graphs of \( y = f(x) \) and \( y = g(x) \).

(d) Solve the inequality \( f(x) > g(x) \).
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) To find local extrema, we take the derivative of \( f(x) \):
\( f'(x) = 3x^2 - 6x - 4 \).
Setting \( f'(x) = 0 \):
\( x = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{(-6)^2 - 4(3)(-4)}}{6} = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{84}}{6} = 1 \pm \frac{\sqrt{21}}{3} \).
This gives the \(x\)-coordinates:
- \( x_1 \approx -0.5275\) (local maximum)
- \( x_2 \approx 2.5275\) (local minimum)

Substitute these back into \( f(x) \):
- For \( x = -0.528\): \( f(-0.528) \approx 6.13\).
- For \( x = 2.53\): \( f(2.53) \approx -8.13\).

So, local maximum is \( (-0.528, 6.13) \) and local minimum is \( (2.53, -8.13) \).

(b) The function \( g(x) = 2x - 3 \) is a linear function in the form \( y = mx + c \).
Therefore, the gradient is 2.

(c) To find the points of intersection, set \( f(x) = g(x) \):
\( x^3 - 3x^2 - 4x + 5 = 2x - 3 \)
\( x^3 - 3x^2 - 6x + 8 = 0 \).

Using factor theorem or a GDC, we test small integer values:
- If \( x = 1 \): \( 1^3 - 3(1)^2 - 6(1) + 8 = 1 - 3 - 6 + 8 = 0 \). So \( (x - 1) \) is a factor.

Factorising the cubic:
\( (x - 1)(x^2 - 2x - 8) = 0 \)
\( (x - 1)(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0 \).

Thus, the \(x\)-coordinates of the points of intersection are \( x = -2 \), \( x = 1 \), and \( x = 4 \).

(d) We want to solve \( f(x) > g(x) \), which simplifies to:
\( x^3 - 3x^2 - 6x + 8 > 0 \).

Referring to the roots from part (c), we determine the sign of the expression in each interval:
- For \( x < -2 \), the expression is negative.
- For \( -2 < x < 1 \), the expression is positive.
- For \( 1 < x < 4 \), the expression is negative.
- For \( x > 4 \), the expression is positive.

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is \( -2 < x < 1 \) or \( x > 4 \).

A solid toy is made by joining a solid cone of radius \( r \) cm and height \( h \) cm to the flat circular surface of a solid hemisphere of radius \( r \) cm.

The total height of the toy is 15 cm, meaning the cone has a height of \( h = 15 - r \) cm.

The total volume of the toy is \( 252\pi \) cm\(^3\).

(a) Show that \( r^3 + 15r^2 - 756 = 0 \).

(b) (i) Show that \( r = 6 \) is a solution to this equation.

(ii) Factorise the cubic expression and explain why \( r = 6 \) is the only real solution to this equation.

(c) Find the total surface area of the toy when \( r = 6 \). Give your answer to 3 significant figures.
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The volume of the hemisphere is given by:
\( V_{\text{hemisphere}} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 \).

The volume of the cone is given by:
\( V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 (15 - r) \).

The total volume \( V \) is:
\( V = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 + \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 (15 - r) = 252\pi \).

Divide the entire equation by \( \pi \):
\( \frac{2}{3}r^3 + \frac{1}{3}r^2 (15 - r) = 252 \)
\( \frac{2}{3}r^3 + 5r^2 - \frac{1}{3}r^3 = 252 \)
\( \frac{1}{3}r^3 + 5r^2 = 252 \).

Multiply by 3:
\( r^3 + 15r^2 = 756 \)
\( r^3 + 15r^2 - 756 = 0 \).

(b) (i) Substitute \( r = 6 \) into the equation:
\( 6^3 + 15(6)^2 - 756 = 216 + 15(36) - 756 = 216 + 540 - 756 = 756 - 756 = 0 \).
Thus, \( r = 6 \) is indeed a solution.

(ii) Since \( r = 6 \) is a root, \( r - 6 \) is a factor.
Using polynomial division or algebraic matching:
\( r^3 + 15r^2 - 756 = (r - 6)(r^2 + 21r + 126) = 0 \).

To find if there are any other real solutions, analyze the quadratic part \( r^2 + 21r + 126 = 0 \):
Discriminant \( \Delta = b^2 - 4ac = 21^2 - 4(1)(126) = 441 - 504 = -63 \).

Since the discriminant is less than 0, there are no other real roots. Hence, \( r = 6 \) is the only real solution.

(c) The total surface area of the toy consists of the curved surface area of the hemisphere and the curved surface area of the cone.

- Curved surface area of the hemisphere: \( A_{\text{hemisphere}} = 2\pi r^2 = 2\pi(6)^2 = 72\pi \).
- Height of the cone is \( h = 15 - 6 = 9 \) cm.
- Slant height of the cone: \( l = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 9^2} = \sqrt{117} \approx 10.817 \) cm.
- Curved surface area of the cone: \( A_{\text{cone}} = \pi r l = \pi (6)(\sqrt{117}) \approx 64.90\pi \).

Total Surface Area = \( 72\pi + 6\sqrt{117}\pi \approx 226.19 + 203.89 = 430.08 \) cm\(^2\).
To 3 significant figures, this is \( 430 \) cm\(^2\).

The cumulative frequency curve of the heights of 160 plants has the following points on its graph: \((0, 0)\), \((10, 12)\), \((20, 38)\), \((30, 92)\), \((40, 138)\), \((50, 154)\), and \((60, 160)\).

Assuming the segments between these plotted points are straight lines:

(a) Estimate the median height of the plants. [3]

(b) Estimate the interquartile range of the heights of the plants. [5]

(c) Estimate the number of plants with a height greater than 45 cm. [3]
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The total frequency is \(N = 160\).
The median is at the \(80\)th cumulative frequency value.
The cumulative frequency value of 80 lies in the interval \(20 \le h \le 30\), between the points \((20, 38)\) and \((30, 92)\).
Using linear interpolation:
\(\text{Median} = 20 + \frac{80 - 38}{92 - 38} \times (30 - 20) = 20 + \frac{42}{54} \times 10 = 20 + 7.78 = 27.78\text{ cm}\).
Correct to 3 significant figures, this is \(27.8\text{ cm}\).

(b) The lower quartile (LQ) is at the \(40\)th cumulative frequency value.
The value 40 lies in the interval \(20 \le h \le 30\), between \((20, 38)\) and \((30, 92)\).
\(LQ = 20 + \frac{40 - 38}{92 - 38} \times 10 = 20 + \frac{2}{54} \times 10 = 20.370\text{ cm}\).

The upper quartile (UQ) is at the \(120\)th cumulative frequency value.
The value 120 lies in the interval \(30 \le h \le 40\), between \((30, 92)\) and \((40, 138)\).
\(UQ = 30 + \frac{120 - 92}{138 - 92} \times (40 - 30) = 30 + \frac{28}{46} \times 10 = 30 + 6.087 = 36.087\text{ cm}\).

The interquartile range (IQR) is:
\(IQR = UQ - LQ = 36.087 - 20.370 = 15.717\text{ cm}\).
Correct to 3 significant figures, this is \(15.7\text{ cm}\).

(c) For a height of 45 cm, we interpolate in the interval \(40 \le h \le 50\), between \((40, 138)\) and \((50, 154)\).
Since 45 is the midpoint of 40 and 50:
\(\text{Cumulative frequency} = 138 + \frac{45 - 40}{50 - 40} \times (154 - 138) = 138 + 0.5 \times 16 = 146\).
Therefore, 146 plants have a height of 45 cm or less.
The number of plants greater than 45 cm is:
\(160 - 146 = 14\).

A solid toy is made in the shape of a hemisphere of radius \(r\) cm surmounted by a cone of the same radius \(r\) cm and height \(h\) cm.
The height of the cone, \(h\), is equal to three times the radius, \(r\).
[The volume of a sphere is \(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3\) and the volume of a cone is \(\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\). The curved surface area of a cone is \(\pi r l\).]

(a) Show that if the total volume of the toy is \(360\pi\text{ cm}^3\), then \(r = 6\text{ cm}\). [4]

(b) Calculate the slant height of the cone. [2]

(c) Calculate the total surface area of the toy, giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures. [5]
查看答案詳解

解題

(a) The volume of the hemisphere is:
\(V_{\text{hemisphere}} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3\)

The volume of the cone is:
\(V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h\)

Since \(h = 3r\):
\(V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 (3r) = \pi r^3\)

The total volume is:
\(V_{\text{total}} = \frac{2}{3}\pi r^3 + \pi r^3 = \frac{5}{3}\pi r^3\)

We are given that the total volume is \(360\pi\text{ cm}^3\):
\(\frac{5}{3}\pi r^3 = 360\pi\)

Divide both sides by \(\pi\):
\(\frac{5}{3}r^3 = 360\)

\(r^3 = 360 \times \frac{3}{5} = 216\)

\(r = \sqrt[3]{216} = 6\text{ cm}\).

(b) The height of the cone is \(h = 3r = 3(6) = 18\text{ cm}\).
The slant height \(l\) of the cone is:
\(l = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 18^2} = \sqrt{36 + 324} = \sqrt{360} \approx 18.974\text{ cm}\).

Correct to 3 significant figures, this is \(19.0\text{ cm}\).

(c) The total surface area consists of the curved surface area of the cone and the curved surface area of the hemisphere.

Curved surface area of the cone:
\(A_{\text{cone}} = \pi r l = \pi \times 6 \times \sqrt{360} \approx 357.643\text{ cm}^2\)

Curved surface area of the hemisphere:
\(A_{\text{hemisphere}} = 2\pi r^2 = 2\pi \times 6^2 = 72\pi \approx 226.195\text{ cm}^2\)

Total surface area:
\(A_{\text{total}} = 357.643 + 226.195 = 583.838\text{ cm}^2\).

Correct to 3 significant figures, this is \(584\text{ cm}^2\).
