There were x rows of Ordinary seats and y rows of Superior seats for a school play.
(a) Each row of Ordinary seats had 25 seats and each row of Superior seats had 20 seats.
Fire regulations limit the total number of seats to 400.
Write down an inequality which expresses this restriction and show that it reduces to
5x + 4y ~ SO. [2J
(b) There is space in the hall for no more than 18 rows of seats.
The Headmaster insisted that there were at least 5 rows of Ordinary seats.
Write down two further inequalities, other than x;;a: 0 and r > 0, which express these
restrictions. [2J
(c) The point (x, y)represents x rows of Ordinary seats and y rows of Superior seats.

6 Answer the whole of this question on a single s beet of graph paper.
The charges made by a firm of carriers named Ph'iri Packages, for delivering parcels of
various masses are based on a fixed minimum char ge for parcels of 5 kg or less. For
parcels over 5 kg the total charge is made up of the fixed minimum charge together with
an additional charge which is proportional to the amount by which the mass exceeds 5 kg.
For parcels over 5 kg the table shows some exampl es of the charges.
Mass of parcel (kg) 15 23 29
Charge ($) 28,50 40,50 49,50
(a) Taking 2 em to represent 5 kg on the horizo ntal axis and 2 em to represent

$5 on the vertical axis, draw a straight line graph to show the total
charges for parcels up to 30 kg. [4]
(b) Use your graph to estimate
(i) the fixed minimum charge,

(ii) the rate per kilogram for the amount by which a parcel exceeds 5 kg,
(iii) the m~s of the parcel that would co st $38;50 to dispatch. [4]

A large solid cone is cut into two parts by a plane parallel to its horizontal circular
base, the upper part being a small solid cone. ,
The figure above represents the solid, with V the vertex, AB the base diameter
, and VO the perpendicular height of the large cone. DC is the base diameter and
VP the perpendicular height of the smaller cone.
