ACS(Independent)MathDept/Y3IPAdvancedMathPaper1/2020/FinalExamination 2 Full marks are not necessarily awarded for a correct answer with no working. Answers must be supported by working and/or explanations. Where an answer is incorrect, some marks may be given for a correct method, provided this is shown by written working. You are therefore advised to show all working. 1. [Maximum marks: 8] It is given that ( ) 3221f x x Ax Bx= + + + is exactly divisible by ( )1x− and leaves a remainder of 9 when divided by ( )2x− . (a) Find the value of A and of B. [4 marks] (b) Hence, prove that the equation ( ) 14f x x =− has only one real root. [4 marks] 2.
