3 [Turn over 1 (a) By using suitable substitution or otherwise, solve the equation ( )e 3 e 5ex x x− −= , giving your answer correct to 2 decimal places. [4]
4 [Turn over (b) Solve 75xx+ = − . [3] 2 Given that tan p = and that is acute, find in terms of p, (a) ( )sin − [1] (b) tan 2 − [1]
5 [Turn over 3 (a) Express 23 36 106xx− − − in the form 2()a x b c++ . [2] (b) Hence, sketch the graph of 23 36 106y x x=− − − on the axes below. Indicate clearly the coordinates of the points where the graph crosses the y-axis and the turning point on the curve. [3] y x
6 [Turn over 4 (a) Given that 2 sin cos xy x += , show that 2 d 1 2sin d cos yx xx += . [3] (b) Hence, evaluate 4 0 2 2 2sin dcos x xx + in exact form. [4]
7 [Turn over (c) Find the y-coordinate of the maximum turning point of 2 sin cos xy x += when 02 x . [6]
8 [Turn over 5 The diagram shows a straight coastline ABC. A turtle, at point X, at sea, swam 35 m in a straight line to point B, where John was throwing food to feed the turtles. The turtle then turned 90 and swam 50 m in a straight line to point Y at sea. Angle 90XBY = , angle XBA = and XA and YC are perpendicular to ABC. (a) Show that 35cos 50sinAC =+ . [2] Y A B C X 35 m 50 m
9 [Turn over (b) Express AC in the form of ( )cosR − , where 0R and 0 90 . [4] (c) John’s father claims that the coastline AC is 70 m. Without measuring, John said that it was incorrect. Explain, with clear workings, how John arrived at this conclusion. [1]
10 [Turn over 6 (i) Write down the general term in the binomial expansion of 12 3 px x − , where p is a constant. [1] (ii) Write down the power of x in this general term. [1] (iii) The constant term in the binomial expansion of 12 3 px x − is 27500− . Find the value of p. [3]
