Solving sinx in given interval. With random variation and worked solutions.

Solving tanx in given interval. With random variation and worked solutions.

Solve for $x$: $\displaystyle ax ^ 2 + bx + c=0$.

Entering the correct roots in any order is marked as correct. However, entering one correct and the other incorrect gives feedback stating that both are incorrect.

Practice with adding, subtracting and dividing basic algebraic fractions

The student is shown a diagram with a line between two points. They must make the line cross the axes at $x=1$ and $y=2$. They can drag the points around, or type a gradient in to move the points accordingly.

The student is shown a diagram containing a line between two points. They're given a gradient and $y$-intercept.

They must manipulate the line or the points so that the line has the given gradient and $y$-intercept.

Simple multiplication including multiples of 10, with answer that can be multiples of up to 1000.

Solving 2nd order differential equation for pendulum, with and without damping.

The student is shown a diagram containing a line between two points. They're given a gradient and $y$-intercept.

They must manipulate the line or the points so that the line has the given gradient and $y$-intercept.

Customised for the Numbas demo exam

Motion under gravity. Object is projected vertically with initial velocity $V\;m/s$. Find time to maximum height and the maximum height. Now includes an interactive plot.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NC = Non Calculator strand. NA = Number & Algebra strand. Students need to add two fractions with different denominators, then subtract the answer from 1. There are 9 different versions of this question.

A simple test for practicing division with remainder. Numbers are randomised, and ranges for divisor and quotient can be specified.

The student is asked to find the square root of an integer of the form $\pm n^2$. If the root is not real, they should enter "nan".

A custom marking algorithm extends the built-in one to deal with "nan".

There's some custom javascript to set the expected answer correctly. In the future this will be possible in the marking algorithm - see https://github.com/numbas/Numbas/issues/856

The student must enter a number in scientific notation, with separate boxes for significand and exponent. They only get the marks if both elements are correct.

This question tests a student's ability to add two fractions with the same denominator.

Use matrix multiplication to get an equation for \(k\) which is then to be solved.

Solving a system of three linear equations in 3 unknowns using Gaussian Elimination (or Gauss-Jordan algorithm) in 5 stages. Solutions are all integers. Introductory question where the numbers come out quite nice with not much dividing. Set-up is meant for formative assessment. Adapated from a question copied from Newcastle.

Calculating with vectors in \(\mathbb{R}^4\), including resolving brackets. The fixed vector size is so that a test is fair to all students.

A combination of tasks: checking which matrix products exist, calculating some of these products, calculating transpose matrices. Comparing product of transpose with transpose of product. Experiencing associativity of matrix multiplication. Not much randomisation, only in which matrix product is computed as second option.

Comprehensive solution written out in Advice.
