Section A Question 1 We have u n = 1 when n = 1 we can substitute u n and n into u n+1 to get the next term u 2 = u 3 = u 4 = = ½ ½ = ⅓ ⅓ = www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 1
Question 2 i) the means we want the sum from a value of r = 2 up to r = 5 that means + + + = 1 + + + = 2 ii) if we set this out in vertical columns it is easier to see 2 3 2 x 3 3 4 3 x 4 4 5 4 x 5 5 6 5 x 6 6 7 6 x 7 r r + 1 r x (r + 1) = r(r+1) f(r) = r(r + 1) we want this to go from r = 2 up to r = 6 we have r(r + 1) www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 2
Question 3 i)to differentiate we multiply by the power and then reduce the power by 1 3x 2 (2 x 6x) 15 = 3x 2-12x 15 ii) to find the stationary points we differentiate and then set the differential to 0 = 3x2-12x 15 = 0 we can divide both sides by 3 x 2-4x 5 = 0 factorise (find two numbers that multiply to give -5 and add to give -4) two numbers are -5 and +1 (x -5)(x + 1) = 0 So x = 5 or x = -1 question only asked for x coordinates so we are done www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 3
Question 4 y = f(2x) this is a stretch (as we are multiplying or dividing rather than adding or subtracting) The change is inside the brackets so affecting the x values When the x values are affected they are affected in the opposite way to what you think This is a stretch of scale factor ½ parallel to the x axis (all the x values are half what they were, and all the y values are unchanged) www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 4
y = 3f(x) this is a stretch (as we are multiplying or dividing rather than adding or subtracting) The change is outside the brackets so affecting the y values This is a stretch of scale factor 3 parallel to the y axis (all the y values are 3 times what they were, and all the x values are unchanged) www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 5
Question 5 first rewrite with the x to a negative power (1 6x -3 ) (1 6x-3 ) dx to integrate you first add a power to the x term and then divide by the new power as we have limits we don t need to worry about adding a constant c x put in the limits 5 2 = x + 5 2 (5 + ) (2 + ) = 2.37 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 6
Question 6 If we have the gradient of a curve then we can integrate to get the equation of the curve To integrate you first add a power to the x term and then divide by the new power y = (6x 2 + 12 x 1/2 ) dx y = + + c = 2x3 + 8 + c we know the curve passes through the point (4,10) so substitute these values for x and y (to get c) 10 = (2 x (4 3 )) + (8 x 4 ) + c simplifiying 10 = (2 x 64) + (8 x 8) + c 10 = 128 + 64 + c 10 = 192 + c subtract 192 from both sides c = -182 put this value for c back into the equation of the curve to get Y = 2x 3 + 8-182 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 7
Question 7 log a x 3 = 3log a x log a = log a = log ax so we have 3log a x + log ax = 3.5 log a x www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 8
Question 8 from the basic identity sin 2 + cos 2 = 1 we can get sin 2 = 1 - cos 2 now substitute this into our equation 4(1 - cos 2 )= 3 + cos 2 expand the brackets 4-4cos 2 = 3 + cos 2 add 4cos 2 to both sides of the equation 4 = 3 + 5cos 2 subtract 3 from both sides 1 = 5cos 2 divide both sides by 5 cos 2 = square root both sides cos = take the inverse cos (cos -1 ) of both sides = cos -1 ( ) = 63.4⁰ or 116.6⁰ www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 9
we need to see where each of these get repeated the cosine graph is symmetrical about the line x = 180⁰ so we need to subtract each of these values from 360⁰ 360 63.4 = 296.6⁰ 360 116.6 = 243.4⁰ so we have = 63.4⁰, 116.6⁰, 243.4⁰ or 296.6⁰ www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 10
Question 9 we can substitute the coordinates into the equation to get two simultaneous equations 6 = a x 2 n and 18 = a x 3 n divide the second equation by the first to eliminate the a = 3 = ( )n take logs of both sides log3 = log( )n log3 = n x log( ) divide both sides by log( ) n = 2.709511 substitute this value for n back into the first equation 6 = a x 2 2.709511 6 = a x 6.541 divide both sides by 6.541 a = 0.92 n = 2.71 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 11
Section B Question 10 i) to find a tangent we first differentiate to get the gradient to differentiate we multiply by the power and then reduce the power by 1 = 4x3 substitute x = 2 into this to get the gradient at the particular point gradient = 4 x 2 3 = 4 x 8 = 32 we need to find the y coordinate at this point y = 2 4 = 16 (2, 16) we now have a gradient and a point that the tangent goes through y y 1 = m(x x 1 ) y 16 = 32(x 2) y 16 = 32x 64 add 16 to both sides y = 32x 48 ii) we need the coordinates at the two points then we can calculate the gradient of the line joining the two points when x = 2, y = 2 4 = 16 (2, 16) when x = 2.1, y = 2.1 4 = 19.4481 (2.1, 19.4481) gradient of line is difference in y coordinates divided by difference in x coordinates gradient =.. =.. = 34.481 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 12
iii) (A) we can expand this by using the binomial expansion First set out pascal s triangle. The power is 4 so we only need 5 rows (one more than the power) 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 3 1 1 4 6 4 1 The final row of the triangle corresponds to the coefficients that we need to use in our expansion I find it easier to work down the page. The first term (2) increases in powers from 0 to 4 whilst the second term ) decreases in powers from 4 to 0. On any row the sum of the powers should be 4. 1 x (2) 0 x h 4 + 4 x (2) 1 x h 3 + 6 x (2) 2 x h 2 + 4 x (2) 3 x h 1 + 1 x (2) 4 x h 0 now we need to tidy up each term h 4 + 8h 3 + 24h 2 + 32h + 16 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 13
(B) = = h 3 + 8h 2 + 24h + 32 (C) the equation in B) gives the formula for the gradient of a chord joining the points (2, 2 4 ) and (2 + h, (2 + h) 4 ) as h gets smaller and smaller the above two points get closer and closer together so the gradient of the chord becomes closer to the gradient of the curve at the point (2, 16) so when h gets close to 0, we can substitute h = 0 into the equation in B) and see that the gradient will be 32 (this also agrees with the gradient we calculated in part i)) www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 14
Question 11 a) these questions are a mix of bearings and advanced trigonometry we need to calculate the angle PQR (shown as x in my diagram) and the angle shown as y we can then calculate the bearing as 360 (x + y) N y N 045⁰ 10.6 x Q P 68⁰ 9.2 R distance from R to Q is length RQ we can find this by using the cosine rule a 2 = b 2 + c 2 2bccosA where a = RQ, b = 10.6, c = 9.2, A = 68⁰ RQ 2 = 10.6 2 + 9.2 2 (2 x 10.6 x 9.2 x cos 68⁰) = 123.93673 square root both sides RQ = 11.132687 = 11.1 km (3 sf) now we have RQ we can use the sine rule to work out angle Q (labelled x) = where Q = x, q = 9.2, P = 68⁰, p = 11.132687 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 15
. =. multiply both sides by 9.2. sin x = = 0.766220. inverse sin (sin -1 ) both sides x = sin -1 (0.766220) = 50.02⁰ now to calculate angle y the two norths are parallel to each other and the line PQ crosses them this means that angle y = 180 45 = 135⁰ bearing of R from Q is measured by going clockwise round from north at Q to meet the line QR 360 (135 + 50.02) = 174.98 = 175⁰ The distance and bearing of R from Q is 11.1km, 175⁰ www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 16
b) i) area of a sector is, r = 80, = area = x = = 6702.06 = 6702 cm 2 ii) triangle ADC a right angled triangle where angle A is ( - ) and AC is 80 we can use basic trigonometry to work out r opposite = r adjacent = don t have and don t need hypoteneuse = 80 we want to use sine (as have opposite and hypoteneuse SOH) sin = multiply both sides by 80 r = 80 x sin = 40 3 iii) consider DCE as a quarter of a circle of radius r (40 3) then the area of DCE = = = 1200 = 3769.91 area of triangle ADC = ½absinC where a = 40 3, b = 80, C = ( - - as angles in a triangle add up to ) triangle ADC = ½ x 40 3 x 80 x sin = 800 3 = 1385.64 middle area (AEC) is quarter circle triangle ADC = 3769.91 1385.64 = 2384.27 rudder area = sector ABC middle area (AEC) = 6702.06 2384.27 = 4317.79 = 4318 cm 2 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 17
Question 12 this is all easier to see if we set up a table it is easy enough to complete the table for 10 stages Stage node Buds Stems Nodes Leaves 1 2 3 1 7 2 4 7 3 21 3 8 15 7 49 4 16 31 15 5 32 63 31 6 64 127 63 7 128 255 127 8 256 511 255 9 512 1023 511 10 1024 2047 1023 i) A) looking at the bud column we can see by inspection that we are just multiplying by 2 each time eg, the 4 th term is 2 4, the 5 th term is 2 5 etc so the 10 th term will be 2 10 = 1024 B) looking at the stem column we can see by inspection that the number is always one less than a power of 2 eg, the 4 th term is 2 5 1 = 31, the 5 th term is 2 6 1 = 63 so the 10 th term will be 2 11 1 = 2048 1 = 2047 ii) A) the number of buds is 2 n the number of stems is 2 n+1 1 the number of nodes is 2 n 1 the number of leaves is always 7 times the number of nodes so leaves = 7(2 n 1) www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 18
alternatively we can work out the number of nodes as being 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + + 2 n-1 this is a geometric series with initial term 1 (a) and common ratio 2 (r) so the sum is = = 2 n 1 the number of leaves is always 7 times the number of nodes so leaves = 7(2 n 1) B) this means that 7(2 n 1) 200,000 expand the brackets (7 x 2 n ) 7 200,000 add 7 to both sides 7 x 2 n 200,007 take logs of both sides log 10 (7 x 2 n ) log 10 200,007 log 10 7 + log 10 2 n log 10 200,007 subtract log 10 7 from both sides log 10 2 n log 10 200,007 - log 10 7 nlog 10 2 log 10 200,007 - log 10 7 divide both sides by log 10 2 n, putting this in the calculator we get n 14.802 but n has to be a whole number so the least possible value of n is 15 www.chattertontuition.co.uk 0775 950 1629 Page 19
