Write all your solutions on a size one sheet. BOX all final answers. 1. Given that z2 is directly proportional to y, and z = 4 when y = 8: (a) Find a law connecting z and y; (b) Calculate the value of z when y = 18; (c) Calculate the value of y when z = 5; and (d) What is the proportionality constant? 2. Given that p is inversely proportional to the cube of q, and p = 50 when q = 2: (a) Find a relation between p and q; (b) Calculate the value of p when q = 4; and (c) Calculate the value of q when p = 3.2. 3. A pile of 108 identical books has a mass of 30 kg. Find (a) the mass of 150 books; and (b) the number of books that has a mass of 20 kg. 4. It takes 35 workers to finish a house in 25 days. If this is the case, then how many days would it take 60 workers to finish the same job? If I wanted my house to be built in 10 days, how many workers must I hire?
