1.A (X,Y) is the mid-point of BC. B is the point (x1,y1). Show that C is the point
(2X-x1,2Y-y1)
2.The variables x and y are thought to related by a law of the form y=ax(powerb) , where a and b are
constants.
(i) Using the data below, verify that this is to be the case
x=2 y=6.32
x=3 y=7.24
x=4 y=7.98
x=5 y=8.60
x=6 y=9.12
ii)Estimate the values of a and b , giving your answers to appropriate degree of accuracy.
(iii) Estimate the value of x when y =7.50 giving your answer correct to two significant figures
(iv) If one of the measured values ( x , y ) is (7.00, 9.00); determine the relative error in this
measured value of y , to 3 s.f.
