[2] (ii) Sketch the graph of 2 1 3 − = xy and of 2 1 3 1 xy = on the same axes, indicating the coordinates of the point of intersection. [2] 2 In triangle ABC shown below, sides AB and AC are )23( +b cm and )23( + cm respectively and ο45=∠BAC . Given that the area of triangle ABC is )232 11( + cm2, (i) show that 2=b , [2] (ii) find the perpendicular distance from B to AC, leaving your answer in the form qp +2 . [3] 3 A biologist conducted a research on a particular type of bacteria. At the start of the experiment, there were 50 bacteria in the growth medium. After 8 hours, there were 960 bacteria. The growth of bacteria is assumed to follow the equation ktePP ο= , where P is the number of bacteria after t hours, οP is the initial number of bacteria and k is the growth constant. (a) Find the value of k . [3] (b) Determine the number of bacteria present after 1 day of growth. [1] (c) Determine the number of hours for the number of bacteria to be 15 times the original number.
