Write in dark blue or black pen on both sides of the paper. You may use a soft pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question. You are expected to use a graphic calculator. Unsupported answers from a graphic calculator are allowed unless a question specifically states otherwise. Where unsupported answers from a graphic calculator are not allowed in a question, you are required to present the mathematical steps using mathematical notations and not calculator commands. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together, with the cover page in front. This document consists of 6 printed pages. [Turn over
2 1 In a “catch the vouchers” game, the player has to enter into a small confined room where there are many different colour vouchers flying in the air. The player has only 30 seconds to catch as many vouchers as possible. Different colour vouchers ca rry different value of money and same colour vouchers carry the same value of money. Four players play the game. The number of different colour vouchers caught and the to tal amount of money won by each pl ayer are shown in the table below. Player A Player B Player C Player D Blue 3 5 4 2 Yellow 4 2 p 8 Red 7 4 2 5 Total amount ($) $27.40 $20.80 $43.40 $45.00 Find p.

[4] (ii) State, briefly giving a reason for your answer, whether the sequence is convergent. [1] 3 Find integers a and b such that ( r + 1) 4 + (r + 1)2 + 1 (r 2 + ar + 3)( r 2 + r + b). [2] With these values of a and b, and by considering 22 11 3rr b ra r , find 42 0 1 (1 )(1 )1 N r r rr in terms of N. [4] Deduce 42 2 1 N r r rr in terms of N. [2]
3 4 The diagram shows a region R in the first quadrant bounded by the curve C with equation 2 2 3 4 y x , the y-axis and the line y = 5. The line y = 5 and the curve intersect at the point 3,5 . (i) Calculate the area of region R. [2] (ii) Write down the equation of the curve obtained when C is translated by 5 units in the negative y-direction. [1] Hence show that the volume of the solid formed when R is rotated completely about the line 5y is given by 3 2 2 0 124 1 d 4 4 xx x , and evaluate this integral exactly. [4] 5 [It is given that a cone of radius r, height h and slant length l has volume 21 3 rh and curved surface area .rl ] An ice cream cone wafer (as shown in the diagram above) of negligible thickness is to have a fixed external surface area of kπ 2cm . Show that the volume V of the cone is given by 24 3 rk rV . Use differentiation to find the radius cmr of the cone in terms of k that will give a minimum internal volume of the cone (you need not prove the minimum value of V).

[4] 7 An athlete hopes to represent Singapore at the SEA Games in 2015 and he embarks on a rigorous training programme. For his first training session, he ran a distance of 7.5 km. For hi s subsequent training sessions, he ran a distance of 800 m more than the previous training session. (i) Express, in terms of n, the distance (in km) he ran on his n th training session. [1] (ii) Find the minimum number of trai ning sessions required for him to run a total distance of at least 475 km. [3] After a month, he realised that his progress was unsatisfactory and he decided to modify the training. For the modifi ed training programme, he ran a distance of x km for the first session, and on each subsequent training session, the distance covered is 6 5 times of the previous session. (iii) Find x, to the nearest integer, if he covered a distance of 14.93 km on the 6th training session. [2] (iv) Using the answer in (iii), and denoting the total distance after n training sessions by Gn, write down an expression for Gn in terms of n. Hence show that 1 N n n G may be expressed in the form aGN + bN, where a and b are integers to be determined. [4]
