(sd) 4.1611 = 4.16°C (3sf) [B1] Answer ……………………… °C [1] (b) Another day in June has a temperature of 22°C. Given that this temperature value is to be included in the above diagram, would the mean temperature increase or decrease? Without the use of calculations, explain your answer. Answer …………………………………………………………………………. …………………………………………………………………………………... …………………………………………………………………………………... [1] The new mean temperature would decrease because 22°C is lower than the mean temperature of the initial set of 15 days. Therefore adding this will cause the new mean temperature to be lower. [B1]

5 [Turn over 3 The diagram shows a rectangular garden measuring 13 m by 10 m. The garden is surrounded by a path of uniform width of x m, shown shaded in the diagram. The total area of the path is 84 m2. (a) Write down an equation in x and show that it simplifies to 2x2 + 23x – 42 = 0. Answer (10 + 2x)(13 + 2x) – (10 × 13) = 84 [M1] 130 + 20x + 26x + 4x2 – 130 = 84 4x2 + 46x – 84 = 0 2x2 + 23x – 42 = 0 (shown) Alt Mtd 2x(13 + 2x) + 2x(10) = 84 or x(10 + 2x) + x(13) = 42 [M1] 26x + 4x2 + 20x = 84 4x2 + 46x – 84 = 0 2x2 + 23x – 42 = 0 (shown) [2] (b) Solve the equation 2x2 + 23x – 42 = 0 and find the width of the path. 2x2 + 23x – 42 = 0 x = ( ) ( )( ) ( ) 2 23 23 4 2 42 22 − − − [M1] x = 1.6027 or x = –13.102 = 1.60 (3sf) = –13.1 ∴ The width of the path is 1.60 m [A1*- with both 1.60 and –13.1 written] *Do not penalise if students rejected –13.1 due to context.
