Text from the first pagesThis document consists of 7 printed pages (including this cover page). Name: Index Number: Class: DUNMAN HIGH SCHOOL Preliminary Examination Year 6 MATHEMATICS 9740/01 (Higher 2) 17 September 2014 Paper 1 3 hours Additional Materials: Answer Paper List of Formulae (MF15) READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your Name, Index Number and Class on all the work you hand in. 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 signi ficant 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, attach the question paper to the front of your answer script. The total number of marks for this paper is 100.

[4] (b) Thomas takes an education loan of $20 000 from a bank for his undergraduate studies. Starting from the month he obtai ned the loan, Thomas makes a monthly payment of $ x to the bank in the middle of every month. At the end of each month, the bank charges him an interest of 1% for the remaining amount owed. The repayment plan continues until he has fully paid for his loan. (i) During his studies, Thomas is only ab le to make a monthly payment such that the amount owed remains at $2 0 000 at the end of every month after the interest is char ged. Find the value of x for this payment plan. [2] After completing his studies, Thomas st ill owes the bank an outstanding amount of $20 000. He adjusts the repayment amount in the month after completing his studies so that he can repay his loan in full after a certain time. (ii) Show that starting from the month the repayment amount is adjusted, the monthly payment of $x such that the loan is fully paid after the n th payment is given by 1200(1.01 ) .1.01 1 n nx [ 3 ] (iii) Hence determine the monthly amount that Thomas should make to fully pay up the loan in exactly 3 years’ time.
