  2. Question 2. Show that 2x = x + 4 has a solution between x = 2.5 and x = 3

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: work out f(2.5) and f(3) for f(x) = 2x - x - 4
    2. A1: -0.843 and 1, a sign change, so a solution lies between them
    Answer: Change of sign shows a solution between 2.5 and 3

    1. M1: 1.0 × 10 + 3.0 × 15 + 2.0 × 15
    2. M1: 40 + (90 - 85) ÷ 0.5

  4. Question 4. ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. Angle ABC = 82^°
    Ravi says angle ADC = 96^°. Is Ravi correct?
    Show your working.

    1. M1: 180 - 82
    2. A1: 98, not 96
    3. B1: No, opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral sum to 180^°
    Answer: No. Angle ADC = 180 - 82 = 98^°, not 96^°, because opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral add up to 180^°

  5. Question 5. AB is a diameter of a circle. A is the point (-1, 2) and B is the point (5, -6).
    Find an equation of the tangent to the circle at B.
    Give your answer in the form ax + by = c where a, b and c are integers.

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: gradient of AB = dfrac-6 - 25 - (-1) = -dfrac43
    2. M1: gradient of the tangent = dfrac34 and y + 6 = dfrac34(x - 5)
    3. A1: 3x - 4y = 39
    Answer: 3x - 4y = 39
