End of Unit Test

1 Work out the following.


(a) –6 + 8 (b) –3 – 4 (c) –5 + –3 – –1

2 Complete the lists of factors for the numbers below.


(a) 12: 1, 2, ...
28:
(b) Use your lists from part a to find the highest common factor of 12 and 28.

3 Calculate:
(a) 52 (b) 23 (c) 34 (d) 105
(e) √9 (f) √64 (g) 3
√27 (h) 3
√1000

4 For each sequence below:


(i) describe the term-to-term rule
(ii) write down the next three terms in the sequence.

(a) 1, 5, 9, 13, ...................... (b) 2, 11, 20, 29, ......................


(c) 21, 19, 17, 15, ...................... (d) 10, 5, 0, –5, ......................

5 Calculate:
(a) +2 × –4 (b) –5 × +3 (c) –7 × –4
(d) –9  +3 (e) –10  –2 (f) +4  –1
(g) 4 × –9 × –2 (h) –3 × –6  2 (i) (15 – –6)  –3

6 Find the lowest common multiple of:


(a) 3 and 5 (b) 9 and 12

7 Write down the first five terms of the sequence whose nth term is:
(a) 5n + 1 (b) 3n – 3

8 (a) Ian only uses his mobile phone in the evening, when it is cheaper. The
costs of some calls he makes to his friend Martin’s mobile are shown in the
table below.
Length of call Cost on Ian’s bill
1 minute 7p
2 minutes 9p
3 minutes 11p
4 minutes 13p

The cost in pence is calculated as 2n + 5, where n is length of the call in


minutes.
Write down the cost of:
(i) a 5-minute call
(ii) a 15-minute call.
(b) The costs of some of Martin’s calls to Ian are shown in the table below.

(c) 2, 5, 8, 11, 14 (d) 1, 6, 11, 16, 21

72
10 Complete the prime-factor tree for the number 72.
Check your answer by multiplying together all the 2 36
prime factors. (The answer should be 72.)
3

11 The diagram shows the prime factors of 66.

(b) How many posts and rails are needed to make a fence with 10 sections?
(c) A farmer has 100 rails.
(i) How many sections can he make if he uses as many of the rails as
possible?
(ii) How many posts does he need to make this number of sections?
(d) Each rail is 2 m long. The farmer wants to fence off both sides of a 450 m long
footpath.
(i) How many posts does he need?
(ii) How many rails does he need?
