  1. Question 1. Solve dfrac3x + 14 = dfracx + 72

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: Multiplies both sides by 4: 3x + 1 = 2(x + 7)
    2. M1: Expands the bracket: 3x + 1 = 2x + 14
    3. M1: Collects: 3x - 2x = 14 - 1
    4. A1: x = 13
    Answer: x = 13
    Solving Harder Equations
    [4 marks]
  2. Question 2. The number x = 0.1010010001ldots continues in this pattern: after each 1 there is one more 0 than after the previous 1.
    Nisha says that x is rational because it has a pattern.
    Ravi says that x is irrational.
    Who is correct? Give a reason.

    1. M1: the digits 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1 have a growing run of zeros, so no block of digits repeats
    2. M1: x = 0.1010010001ldots never terminates or recurs, so x ≠ dfracab for integers a and b
    3. A1: Ravi
    Answer: Ravi. The digits never repeat in a fixed block, so x cannot be written as a fraction.

    1. M1: the centre angle of each triangle is 360 ÷ 6 = 60^°
    2. M1: one triangle has area 1/2 × 8 × 8 × sin 60^°
    3. M1: six triangles, 6 × 27.7
    4. A1: 166.3
    Answer: 166.3 cm²
