2 1 Expand 4+2x()−12 as a series of descending powers of x up to and including the term in x−72 and state the range of values of x for which the expansion is valid. [4] 2 There are 5 male and 4 female job applicants waiting for their turn in a job interview. Two particular males are Andy and Ben, and one particular female is Mandy. They sit in a row of 9 seats in the waiting room. Find the number of ways of arranging them in each of the following cases: (i) there is no restriction, [1] (ii) Mandy occupies the centre seat with Andy on her left and Ben on her right (need not be adjacent), [2] (iii) the female and male applicants alternate. [2] 3 (a) The sum of the first three terms of an arithmetic progression is 45 and the 40th term of the progression is 91. Find (i) the first term of the series and the common difference, [3] (ii) the sum of the terms from the 15th to the 100th terms. [2] (b) In a geometric progression, the first term is 8 and the sixth term is −14. Find (i) the sum Sn of the first n terms of the progression, [2] (ii) the sum to infinity S of the progression, [1] (iii) the smallest prime number n such that Sn−S<0.01. [2] 4 Find the equation of the normal to the curve at the point . [6] 5 (a) Find x3∫lnx dx. [4] (b) Evaluate . [4] xy+y2=2x(1,−2)3x1+4x2dx03∫
3 6 Find the volume generated when the area bounded by the curve and the lines and is rotated through one revolution about the y-axis. Give your answer in exact form. [3] 7 An insurance agent spends a period of successive days selling a particular insurance policy to his clients. If he manages to sell the policy on any given day, the probability that he successfully sells the policy on the following day is 0.8. If he fails to sell the policy on any given day, the probability of success on the next day is 0.3. If he successfully sells a policy on Tuesday, calculate the probability that (i) he successfully sells a policy on Thursday, [2] (ii) he successfully sells a policy on Friday, given that he did not manage to sell it on Wednesday.
