10 These two shapes are similar.
Not drawn accurately
(a) Write down the value of \(y\). [1 mark]
(b) Work out the value of \(x\). [2 marks]
| Answer | Mark | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| 30 | B1 |
Additional guidance
| Further work eg \(\dfrac{1}{4} \times 30 = 7.5\) | B0 |
| Answer | Mark | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| \(15 \div 6\) or 2.5 or \(6 \div 3\) or 2 or \(6 \div 15\) or 0.4 or \(3 \div 6\) or 0.5 or \(\dfrac{x}{15} = \dfrac{3}{6}\) or \(\dfrac{x}{15} = 0.5\) | M1 | oe may be seen on the diagram |
| 7.5 or \(7\dfrac{1}{2}\) or \(\dfrac{15}{2}\) | A1 |
Additional guidance
Accept correct answer unambiguously placed as \(x\) on the diagram provided it is not contradicted in the working space.
