A Eukleides diagram showing a list of numbers, each in their own box, with the sum drawn above.

A Eukleides diagram showing a list of numbers, each in their own box, with the sum drawn above.

Draws a diagram showing a randomly-chosen number of circles, packed in a box.

The student is presented with a scenario then asked to select a sample size to investigate and the number of bins for a histogram of the data. Theoretical distributions of normal, uniform and lognormal distributions can be overlayed on the histogram. Student is asked to identify the most likely distribution and the mean of this distribution (within a +/-10% margin of error).

This question is the one described in method 2 of the example "Apply a standard integral" in the Numbas documentation.

The student is shown a randomly chosen function to integrate. The function is one of $e^{kx}$, $x^k$, $\cos(kx)$, $\sin(kx)$, with $k$ a randomly chosen integer.

Choose one from a list to identify the function shown in a graph. The function is a randomly selected sin, cos, or tan graph with random scale factor.

Students are given a number with two decimal places and are asked to divide it by either 10, 100 or 1000.

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). SP = Statistics & Probability strand. Students are shown a column graph and asked to calculate the net benefit given the amount invested (randomly generated) and the intervention type (one of seven possible).

Replace two parallel forces with an equivalent single force

Replace three tangential forces with an equivalent force-couple system acting at the center of a circle.

No description given

Used for LANTITE preparation (Australia). NC = Non Calculator strand. NA = Number & Algebra strand. Students are given the number of people that are fed with 200g of rice (randomised), and the total number of people to be fed (randomised). They need to calculate the weight of rice using proportional reasoning.

A test of basic concepts to do with SI units and concentrations of solutions.

The student is presented with a scenario then asked to select a sample size to investigate and the number of bins for a histogram of the data. Theoretical distributions of normal, uniform and lognormal distributions can be overlayed on the histogram. Student is asked to identify the most likely distribution and the mean of this distribution (within a +/-10% margin of error).

Finding the modulus and argument (in radians) of four complex numbers; the arguments between $-\pi$ and $\pi$ and careful with quadrants!

Find modulus and argument of two complex numbers. Then use De Moivre's Theorem to find positive powers of the complex numbers.

Given a generating matrix for a binary linear code, construct a parity check matrix, list all the codewords, list all the words in a given coset, give coset leaders, calculate syndromes for each coset, correct a codeword with one error.

A right-angled triangle is displayed either pointing left or right with one of the other angles and one of the sides given. Use SOH CAH TOA to find the side indicated with an x.

All the answers in this question are equations. In order to mark each equation, Numbas needs to pick some values that satisfy the equation and some that don't, and check that the student's answer agrees with the expected answer.

Any equation with the same solution set as the expected answer will be marked correct.

Match up equations with the corresponding lines on a graph.

Solve a Differential equation with 3 simple linear factors

Compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean given a small sample, and compare it with a confidence interval for a different population.

Finding the confidence interval at either 90%, 95% or 99% for the mean given the mean and standard deviation of a sample. The population variance is not given and so the t test has to be used. Various scenarios are included.

Compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean given a small sample, and compare it with a confidence interval for a different population.

Two ordered data sets, each with 10 numbers. Find the sample standard deviation for each and for their sum.
