Text from the first pages© DHS 2024 Name: Index Number: Class: DUNMAN HIGH SCHOOL Promotional Examination Practice Paper 2 Year 5 MATHEMATICS (Higher 2) 9758/01 3 hours Additional Materials: List of Formulae (MF27) READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your Name, Index Number and Class on all the work you hand in. Write in dark blue or black pen on both sides of the paper. You may use an HB pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, glue or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question. You are expected to use an approved graphing calculator. Unsupported answers from a graphing calculator are allowed unless a question specifically states otherwise. Where unsupported answers from a graphing calculator are not allowed in a question, you are required to present the mathematical steps using mathematical notations and not calculator commands. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers. At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.

During the Great Electronics Sale, two companies, A and B, offered the following discounts to their customers. Company Discounts given for each item Total price after the discount Desktop monitor Keyboard Mouse A 10% 15% 10% $282.66 B 5% 25% 20% $283.72 (a) Find the selling prices of a desktop monitor, keyboard and mouse. [3] (b) Kim works at Company B and the e mployees from Company B are offered a further 2% discount on the original price of the mouse. Explain if this additional discount will make it more attractive for Kim to purchase all the three items from her own company than from Company A.

[4] (b) By using appropriate standard series expansions from the List of Formulae (MF2 7), verify the correctness of the series expansion found in part (a). [3] 6 Jane decides to purchase an apartment. To finance her apartment, she intends to apply for a bank housing loan of $847 500 which charges a monthly interest rate of 0.25%. Interest is charged on the outstanding loan on the first day of each month, starting from the second month. A fixed monthly repayment of $ M is done on the last day of each month throughout the loan tenure, starting from the first month. (a) Find an expression for the loan balance at the end of the second month. Hence show that the calculated loan balance at the end of the nth loan month is given by ( ) 1847500(1.0025) 400 1 1.0025 . nn M− +− [3] (b) TDSR, also known as total debt servicing ratio, refers to the portion of a borrower’s gross monthly income that goes towards the total monthly debt. For a bank to approve any loan, the borrower's TDSR should be less than or equal to 55%. The formula for calculating TDSR is as follows: Borrower's total monthly debt 100Borrower's gross monthly income . If Jane intends to repay the loan in 25 years, determine whether the bank will approve Jane’s loan given that her minimum gross monthly income is $7 300.
