Answer Key - Additional Mathematics Practice Paper (Version 2)

Section A

Question 1 (a) $2x - 3y = 6 \implies y = \frac{2}{3}x - 2$ . Gradient $m = \frac{2}{3}$ . [1] (b) Perpendicular gradient $m' = -\frac{3}{2}$ . Equation: $y - (-1) = -\frac{3}{2}(x - 4) \implies y + 1 = -\frac{3}{2}x + 6 \implies y = -\frac{3}{2}x + 5$ or $3x + 2y = 10$ . [3] (c) Solve $2x - 3y = 6$ and $3x + 2y = 10$ . $2(3x + 2y = 10) \to 6x + 4y = 20$ $3(2x - 3y = 6) \to 6x - 9y = 18$ Subtracting: $13y = 2 \implies y = \frac{2}{13}$ . $2x = 6 + 3(\frac{2}{13}) = \frac{78+6}{13} = \frac{84}{13} \implies x = \frac{42}{13}$ . Coordinates: $(\frac{42}{13}, \frac{2}{13})$ . [3]

Question 2 (a) $x = -\frac{b}{2a} = \frac{8}{4} = 2$ . $y = 2(2)^2 - 8(2) + 5 = 8 - 16 + 5 = -3$ . Vertex: $(2, -3)$ . [2] (b) $\frac{dy}{dx} = 4x - 8$ . At $x=4, \text{grad} = 4(4) - 8 = 8$ . Equation: $y - 5 = 8(x - 4) \implies y = 8x - 32 + 5 \implies y = 8x - 27$ . [3] (c) $0 = 8x - 27 \implies x = \frac{27}{8} = 3.375$ . Coordinates: $(3.375, 0)$ . [2]

Question 3 (a) $x^2 - 6x + 9 + y^2 + 4y + 4 = 12 + 9 + 4 \implies (x-3)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 25$ . Centre: $(3, -2)$ , Radius: $5$ . [3] (b) Distance from $(3, -2)$ to $(7, 1) = \sqrt{(7-3)^2 + (1-(-2))^2} = \sqrt{4^2 + 3^2} = 5$ . Since distance = radius, the point lies on the circumference. [3] (c) Gradient of radius to $(6, 4) = \frac{4 - (-2)}{6 - 3} = \frac{6}{3} = 2$ . Tangent gradient = $-\frac{1}{2}$ . Equation: $y - 4 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 6) \implies 2y - 8 = -x + 6 \implies x + 2y = 14$ . [4]

Question 4 (a) $kx - 2 = x^2 - 4x + 6 \implies x^2 - (4+k)x + 8 = 0$ . For tangency, $\Delta = 0 \implies (4+k)^2 - 4(1)(8) = 0$ . $(4+k)^2 = 32 \implies 4+k = \pm \sqrt{32} = \pm 4\sqrt{2}$ . $k = -4 \pm 4\sqrt{2}$ . [4] (b) $k = -4 + 4\sqrt{2} \approx 1.657$ . $x = \frac{4+k}{2} = \frac{4 + (-4 + 4\sqrt{2})}{2} = 2\sqrt{2} \approx 2.828$ . $y = (2\sqrt{2})^2 - 4(2\sqrt{2}) + 6 = 8 - 8\sqrt{2} + 6 = 14 - 8\sqrt{2} \approx 2.686$ . Coordinates: $(2.83, 2.69)$ . [3]

Question 5 (a) Midpoint $AB = (\frac{-2+4}{2}, \frac{1+3}{2}) = (1, 2)$ . Grad $AB = \frac{3-1}{4-(-2)} = \frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}$ . Perp grad = $-3$ . Eq: $y - 2 = -3(x - 1) \implies y = -3x + 5$ . [4] (b) Area = $\frac{1}{2} |(-2(3- (-3)) + 4(-3-1) + 2(1-3))| = \frac{1}{2} |(-12 - 16 - 4)| = \frac{1}{2} |-32| = 16$ sq units. [3]

Question 6 (a) $\ln y = \ln(ax^n) \implies \ln y = n \ln x + \ln a$ . [2] (b) Gradient $n = \frac{5-2}{2-1} = 3$ . Intercept $\ln a = 2 - 3(1) = -1 \implies a = e^{-1} \approx 0.368$ . $a = 0.368, n = 3$ . [5]

Question 7 Centre = Midpoint $PQ = (\frac{-1+5}{2}, \frac{4+2}{2}) = (2, 3)$ . Radius $r = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{(5-(-1))^2 + (2-4)^2} = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{36 + 4} = \frac{1}{2} \sqrt{40} = \sqrt{10}$ . Eq: $(x-2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 10$ or $x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 6y + 3 = 0$ . [7]

Section B

Question 8 (a) Grad $L = -\frac{3}{4}$ . Eq: $y - 5 = -\frac{3}{4}(x - 2) \implies 4y - 20 = -3x + 6 \implies 3x + 4y = 26$ . [3] (b) Substitute $y = \frac{26-3x}{4}$ into $(x-1)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 25$ . $(x-1)^2 + (\frac{26-3x}{4} - 2)^2 = 25 \implies (x-1)^2 + (\frac{18-3x}{4})^2 = 25$ . $16(x^2 - 2x + 1) + (324 - 108x + 9x^2) = 400$ . $16x^2 - 32x + 16 + 324 - 108x + 9x^2 = 400 \implies 25x^2 - 140x - 40 = 0$ . $5x^2 - 28x - 8 = 0 \implies (5x + 1.35...)$ - Use formula: $x = \frac{28 \pm \sqrt{784 - 4(5)(-8)}}{10} = \frac{28 \pm \sqrt{944}}{10}$ . $x_1 \approx 5.88, x_2 \approx -0.28$ . Find $y$ values: $y_1 \approx 2.13, y_2 \approx 6.71$ . Coordinates: $(5.88, 2.13)$ and $(-0.28, 6.71)$ . [6]

Question 9 (a) $5 = \frac{k}{2} + m$ and $3 = \frac{k}{4} + m$ . Subtracting: $2 = \frac{k}{4} \implies k = 8$ . $5 = \frac{8}{2} + m \implies m = 1$ . [4] (b) $y = \frac{8}{x} + 1 \implies \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{8}{x^2}$ . Set $-\frac{8}{x^2} = -1 \implies x^2 = 8 \implies x = \pm 2\sqrt{2}$ . If $x = 2\sqrt{2}, y = \frac{8}{2\sqrt{2}} + 1 = 2\sqrt{2} + 1 \approx 3.83$ . If $x = -2\sqrt{2}, y = -2\sqrt{2} + 1 \approx -1.83$ . Coordinates: $(2.83, 3.83)$ or $(-2.83, -1.83)$ . [5]

Question 10 (a) $(0,0) \implies c = 0$ . $(4,0) \implies 16 + 8g = 0 \implies g = -2$ . $(0,6) \implies 36 + 12f = 0 \implies f = -3$ . $g = -2, f = -3, c = 0$ . [5] (b) $x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 6y = 0 \implies (x-2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 4 + 9 = 13$ . Centre: $(2, 3)$ , Radius: $\sqrt{13} \approx 3.61$ . [4]

Question 11 (a) $m = -\frac{1}{2}$ . $y - 4 = -\frac{1}{2}(x - 3) \implies 2y - 8 = -x + 3 \implies y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 5.5$ . $m = -0.5, c = 5.5$ . [3] (b) $-\frac{1}{2}x + 5.5 = x^2 - 2x - 1 \implies x^2 - 1.5x - 6.5 = 0$ . $2x^2 - 3x - 13 = 0$ . $x = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{9 - 4(2)(-13)}}{4} = \frac{3 \pm \sqrt{113}}{4}$ . $x_1 \approx 3.41, x_2 \approx -1.91$ . $y_1 \approx 3.80, y_2 \approx 6.46$ . Coordinates: $(3.41, 3.80)$ and $(-1.91, 6.46)$ . [6]

Question 12 (a) Area = $\frac{1}{2} |(0(0-3) + 4(3-5) + 6(5-0) + 2(0-0))| = \frac{1}{2} |(0 - 8 + 30 + 0)| = \frac{1}{2} |22| = 11$ sq units. [6] (b) Midpoint $OP = (2, 0)$ . Midpoint $QR = (\frac{6+2}{2}, \frac{3+5}{2}) = (4, 4)$ . Grad = $\frac{4-0}{4-2} = 2$ . Eq: $y - 0 = 2(x - 2) \implies y = 2x - 4$ . [3]
