A triangle has a base of $10$ cm, measured to the nearest centimetre, and a height of $5.0$ cm, measured to the nearest $0.1$ cm. Find the lower bound for the area of the triangle.

A physical frequency is defined as $f = \frac{1}{t}$ . If $t = 0.040$ s correct to 2 significant figures, calculate the lower bound of the frequency $f$ .

True or False: A measurement is recorded as $x$ , and its true value $T$ lies in the continuous interval $L \le T < U$ . If the original value was rounded up to the recorded value $x$ , then the true value $T$ must have been in the sub-interval .

Fill in the blank: On a number line representing the interval of a continuous measurement $x$ with lower bound $L$ and upper bound $U$ , the limits of accuracy are represented by a _____ point at $L$ and an _____ point at $U$ .

True or False: If a length $L$ is measured as $8$ m to the nearest metre, the value $7.5$ m is a possible value for the actual length, but $8.5$ m is not.
