TINA CARIBBEAN ADVANCED PROFICIENCY EXAMINATION® APPLIED MATHEMATICS Unit 2- MATHEMATICAL APPLICATIONS Paper 01 I hour 30 minutes 10 JUNE 2016 (p.m.) READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. ‘This test consists of 45 items. You will have one hour and 30 minutes to answer them. {In addition to this test booklet, you should have an answer sheet, Do not be concemed thatthe answer sheet provides spaces for more answers than there are items in this test. Each item In this test has four suggested answers lettered (A), (B), (C),(D). Read each item ‘you are about to answer and decide which choice is best. On your answer sheet, find the number which corresponds to your item and shade the space having the same letter as the answer you have chosen. Look at the sample item below. ‘Sample Item ‘The mean of 5, 7,9, 11 and 13 is Sample Answer @ 5 ws @0060 © 8 @ 9 ‘The best answer to this item is “9 ", so (D) has been shaded. If you want to change your answer, erase it completely before you fill in your new choice, When you are told to begin, tum the page and work as quickly and as carefully a8 youcan, If yYou-annot answer an item, go.on to the next one, You may return to this item latee You may do any rough work in this booklet. ‘You may use silent, non-programmable calculators to assist you in answering items. pn ry A list of mathematical formulae and tables.
