Question in MfEP Progress Quizzes
This question is an application of a quadratic equation. Student is given dimensions of a rectangular area, and an area of pavers that are available. They are asked to calculate the width of a border that can be paved around the given rectangle (assuming border is the same width on all 4 sides). The equation for the area of the border is given in terms of the unknown border width. Students need to recognise that only one solution of the quadratic gives a physically possible solution.
The dimensions of the rectangle, available area of tiles and type of space are randomised. Numeric variables are constructed so that resulting quadratic equation has one positive and one negative root.

Question in MASH Bath: Question Bank
The relationship between the frequency of an allele A, $x$, at a genetic locus in a diploid population and the fitness of a population with this frequency of allele A, $w$, is described by the function $w=ax^2+x(b-x)+c(b-x)^2$ . The aims are (a) ti simplify the algebraic expression, (b) calculate the fitness of a population with a given allele A frequency, and (c) calculate the allele A frequency when the fitness of the population is given.
