Find the rate of increase of x at this instant. [4] 2 Mr. Li invested a total of $30000 and divided this sum into three accounts, which paid 2%, 3% and 5% annual interest respectively. At the end of the first year, Mr . Li withdrew all the money out from the 2% and 5% accounts and gave the interest earned to his son. The amount in the 3% account, including interest, was re-invested in the same account for another year. At the end of the second year, Mr . Li withdrew all the money out of the 3% account and gave the interest earned to his son. The total interest received by the son from the three accounts was $1423.50. Given that the amount invested in the 2% account was $1000 more than the amount invested in the 5% account, find the amounts invested in each of the three accounts. [4] 3 (i) Prove that for 0x , the substitution y ux reduces the differential equation 22d( ) 2 d yyy x y x xx to 22 1d 12 2 d uu u u x . [2] (ii) Hence find the general solution of the differential equation 22d( ) 2 d yyy x y x xx for 0x .

The container is made of plastic of negligible thickness and is placed on a horizontal surface . The faces BCGF and ADHE are inclined at an angle radians, 0 2 , to the horizontal surface, and faces ABFE and DCGH are perpendicular to base ABCD. Figure 2 shows its cross - sectional view. (i) Show that the volume V cm3 of the container is given by 3 sin (1 cos )Va . [2] (ii) Use differentiation to find, in terms of a, the maximum value of V in exact form, proving that it is a maximum.

6 H2 MA 9758/2020 RI Year 6 Preliminary Examination Paper 1 (iii) A particular container is constructed with 3 and it is filled with water to half its height. Find, in terms of a, the exact volume of water in this container. [3] The container is then tilted in the direction of the face BCGF until face BCGF and base ABCD makes the same angle with the horizontal surface. Figure 3 shows its cross-sectional view. Explain if it is possible to tilt the container to this position without any water flowing out from the container. [2] 12 The von Bertalanffy growth model, introduced in 1938, is widely used in fisheries studies. It is used to predict the length, L mm of a fish over a period of time, t years.
