(a) By expressing 23 12 10 y x x= − + in the form ( ) 2 a x b c++ , where a, b and c are constants, find the coordinates of the stationary point on the curve. [2] (b) If the curve is translated 3 units to the left and 2 units down, write the new equation in the form ( ) 2 y a x d e= + + , where a, d and e are constants. [1] (c) The line 3y x c=+ is a tangent to the curve. Find the value of c. [3]
Name: __________________________________ ( ) Class: __________ FMS(S) Sec 4 Express Preliminary Examination 2025 4 Additional Mathematics Paper 1 2 A group of students investigated the cooling rate of a cup of hot chocolate in a caf e. The temperature of the cafe was 25°C. The temperature of the hot chocolate, T°C, after time t minutes is modelled by the formula 25ktT Ae −=+ where A and k are constants. Measurements of T and t are shown in the table below. t (min) 5 10 15 20 25 T (°C) 72 58 47 39 35 (a) On the next page, p lot ln ( 25)T− against t and draw a straight line graph to illustrate the information.

Name: __________________________________ ( ) Class: __________ FMS(S) Sec 4 Express Preliminary Examination 2025 8 Additional Mathematics Paper 1 4 A swing follows a parabolic path, where its height, h metres, at time t seconds is given by the equation 2 6h t t=− + . The swing starts at rest at t = 0, reaches maximum height, and falls back down. At two moments during the swing’s motion, the heights are recorded at times k and 3k seconds, where 0 < k < 2. (a) Find the range of values of k for which the height at time 3k is greater than the height at time k. [3] (b) Hence, by referring to the graph or otherwise, explain why the speed of the swing at time k seconds is always greater than the speed at time 3k seconds. [2] t h 0
