    GOOD SHEPHERD INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL- OOTY

    HOLIDAY HOMEWORK DEC. -2023

    IB MYP 1 MATHEMATICS

    Name:
    Class:
    Teacher Initial:
    Question 1:

    (i) In Canada, the average annual income of a


    female aged 25 to 34 is 77% of a male in the
    same age group. If the average annual income of
    a female is approximately $50000, how much,
    rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, does the
    average male in the group earn?

    (ii) In Australia, the average full-time weekly


    salary for a woman is approximately 84% of the
    full-time weekly salary for a man. If an
    Australian man earns approximately $1600 per week, how much does an Australian woman
    earn?

    Question 2:

    Many charitable organizations have worked hard to


    reduce child mortality. Since 1990, the number of deaths
    worldwide in children under five years old declined from
    approximately 13 million to approximately 6 million.

    (a) What is the approximate percentage decrease?

    (b) Assuming a constant rate of change, by approximately


    what percentage did the number of deaths drop per year?

    (c) If this trend continues at the same rate, what would


    you predict to be the number of deaths in children under five years old in ten years’ time?

    Question 3:

    Write down a nutritious meal plan for breakfast, lunch and dinner for seven days. Be specific –
    don’t just write ‘sandwich’ – consider all the parts of the sandwich you will need: bread,
    mustard, tomato, cheese, etc. Use a chart like the one below to record your meal plan.
    (a) Once you have an idea of what you will eat in a week, you will have to calculate the cost of
    the items. First, create a grocery list for the food you will need to make the meals listed in your
    chart for one week. Then put the list in a chart with three columns: the food item, the estimated
    cost and the actual cost. You will then estimate how much you think each item costs and
    calculate the total.

    You could create your chart using a spreadsheet so that you can do the calculations efficiently.
    To find the real costs, you can either search a grocery store’s prices online, or seek help from
    your parents.

    (b) Calculate the actual total cost of the groceries.

    (c) Calculate the percentage difference between what you estimated the total cost of the groceries
    to be and their real cost.

    (d) Explain the degree of accuracy of your results in part c. Describe whether or not your results
    make sense.

    Question 4:

    You will set up a monthly budget spreadsheet. A


    budget tracks your income and your expenses to
    help you see how much money you will have left to
    save or how much you will be in debt. The budget is
    best created using a spreadsheet, so you can set up a
    formula for ‘Income less total expenses’. This
    number should be positive so that you do not go into
    debt.
    Here is an example budget spreadsheet.

    Question 5:

    (a) Draw the next two shapes in the sequence below and explain the pattern in words.

    (b) Determine what the 26th term in the sequence would be, without drawing it. How do you
    know?

    (c) Will the number 409 be in this sequence? Explain why or why not.

    (d) Write a rule to find the next term of the sequence if you know the one before it.
    Question 6:

    1
    According to a recent study, of the people
    2
    surveyed use their phones primarily to
    communicate with others using in person. Of the
    1
    same group of people surveyed, use their
    3
    7
    phones primarily for sending texts, and use
    25
    them primarily for making and receiving calls.

    (a) Order the modes of socializing (social networks, texting, calling) from lowest to highest.

    (b) Despite so many people having smartphones, global voice usage declined for the first time
    ever in 2013. Why do you think this happened? What elect will it have on human connections?
    Explain.

    (c) Many people say that, ironically, smartphones are eliminating the need for people to speak to
    each other. What do you think of this theory? Explain.

    Question 7:

    2 11 1 1 8
    Arrange the fractions , , , , from least to greatest. Show all of your working.
    11 40 4 5 33

    Question 8:

    Newspaper companies get some revenue from the


    selling price of the newspaper, but they

    make much more money from advertising. As of


    a Thursday, sales reps at a major newspaper

    had sold the following advertising space for the


    Sunday paper: 3 full pages, 3 half-pages,

    5 quarter-pages, and 7 eighth-pages. If 7 full


    pages have been reserved for advertisements in
    the

    Sunday paper, how much space is still available to be sold?


    Question 9:

    Two fisherman go fishing at different times in the week. Wally catches 12 fish a day 3 days a

    week whereas Callum catches 5 fish 4 days a week.

    a) How many fish does Wally catch a week?

    b) How many fish does Callum catch a week?

    c) Who catches more fish a week?

    Question 10:

    In 2015, 6% of the people forced to flee their homes were hosted by countries in Europe. This
    represented approximately 4 million people.

    (a) Using this data, approximate the number of people represented by the following percentages.
    (i) 12% of the people fled to the Americas.

    (ii) 30% fled to an African country (not including North Africa).

    (iii) 15% fled to a country in the Asia-Pacific region.

    (iv) 39% fled to a country in the Middle East or North Africa.

    (b) Imagine you had to leave your country because of a civil war. What would it feel like to
    move to a new place where you don’t know anyone and don’t speak the language? How would it
    feel to know that you may never go back home?

    What other feelings would you have?
