  • Q5
    A pupil produces a graph to see if there is a relationship between two variables. The points do not seem to follow a straight line. How should they draw a line of best fit?
    Join the points with a series of straight lines, like a dot-to-dot.
    Repeat the experiment until they get results that will give a straight line.
    Draw a single curved line that passes through, or close to, the points.
    Draw a single straight line from the origin to the last point plotted.
    Draw a series of curves through the points.

  • Q6
    A pupil suggests measuring the time it takes a trolley to roll 5 cm down a ramp using a stopwatch to get an accurate value of instantaneous speed. Why is this unlikely to produce an accurate result?
