  3. Question 3. Simplify fully dfracx² - 94x + 8 × dfracx + 2x - 3

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: x² - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3)
    2. M1: 4x + 8 = 4(x + 2)
    3. A1: dfracx + 34
    Answer: dfracx + 34
    Multiplying & Dividing Algebraic Fractions
    [3 marks]
  4. Question 4. y is inversely proportional to the cube of x. When x=2, y=12. Work out the value of x when y=1.5.

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: y=dfrackx³, 12=dfrack8, k=96
    2. M1: 1.5=dfrac96x³, x³=64
    3. A1: x=4
    Answer: x=4
    Direct & Inverse Proportion with Functions
    [3 marks]
  5. Question 5. The line y = x + k is a tangent to the circle x² + y² = 18. Work out the two possible values of k

    Show worked answerHide worked answer
    1. M1: x² + (x + k)² = 18 gives 2x² + 2kx + k² - 18 = 0
    2. M1: tangent means one solution, so (2k)² - 8(k² - 18) = 0
    3. A2: k² = 36, so k = 6 or k = -6
    Answer: k = 6 or k = -6
