5(i) Since a line such as 2y intersects the curve fyx at 2 points, f is not one-to- one. 1 f does not exist. 5(ii) Largest possible domain for h is [3, ) . 5(iii) 2 ln 2 2yx 2 22e y x Since 3,x 2 1 2h: 2e , , 2 x xx x 5(iv) 11hh h hx xx which is always valid since the inverse function exists. Since domain of 1hh is domain of 1hD2 , and domain of 1hh is domain of hD3 , . Thus the set of values is :3xx . 6(i) As t , sinx t and cosyt . Using trigonometric identity 22sin cos 1tt , the Cartesian equation of C is 22 1xy . Thus the shape of C is a circle with centre at the origin and with unit length radius. 6(ii) d ec o sd tx tt , d es i nd ty tt . de s i n de c o s t t y t x t At P, gradient of normal is ec o s es i n . equation of normal is ec o sec o s es i n es i nyx ec o s es i n ec o ses i nyx ec o s 2ees i nyx 6(iii) Using equation of normal found in (ii), point D is 0, 2e . E is a point on C. From ec o styt , when 0y , ec o st t By inspection, 0t . 0es i n 0 1x . Hence point E is 1, 0 . 6(iv) The mid-point of DE is 1 ,e2 . Since 1 2x is a fixed value and 0e 1 y , required locus is a half-line 1 2x , with 1y . y x x = 2 y = 2

A Ant nn 8(iv) d 0d A t means that the rate which Mac needs to cut the weeds is equal to the rate the weeds grow. Thus, the area covered in weeds is unchanged. 9(i) Amount after 16 days = 2 11000 250 mg2
