Section A: Lines and Basic Coordinate Geometry

1. [3 marks]
Gradient $m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{5 - (-3)}{-4 - 2} = \frac{8}{-6} = -\frac{4}{3}$.
Answer: $-\frac{4}{3}$ (3 marks: 1 for correct formula, 2 for correct substitution and answer)

2. [3 marks]

Equation: $y - 4 = -1(x - 3) \Rightarrow y = -x + 7$.
Answer: $y = -x + 7$ (4 marks: 1 midpt, 1 grad, 1 perp grad, 1 eqn)

4. [4 marks]
$2x + y = 7$ → (1); $x - 3y = -2$ → (2). From (1) $y = 7 - 2x$. Sub into (2): $x - 3(7-2x) = -2 \Rightarrow x - 21 + 6x = -2 \Rightarrow 7x = 19 \Rightarrow x = \frac{19}{7}$. Then $y = 7 - 2(\frac{19}{7}) = \frac{49-38}{7} = \frac{11}{7}$.
Answer: $\left(\frac{19}{7}, \frac{11}{7}\right)$ (4 marks: 2 for x, 2 for y)

5. [4 marks]
$x^2 - 3x + 1 = 2x + 1 \Rightarrow x^2 - 5x = 0 \Rightarrow x(x-5)=0 \Rightarrow x=0,5$.

6. [4 marks]
$C = \left(\frac{3+(-1)}{2}, \frac{-2+8}{2}\right) = (1, 3)$.

7. [3 marks]
Gradient $FG = \frac{3-1}{0-(-2)} = 1$; gradient $GH = \frac{7-3}{4-0} = 1$. Same gradient and shared point G ⇒ collinear.

(a) Perpendicular gradient to $-\frac{1}{2}$ is $2$. Through $(0,5)$: $y = 2x + 5$. [3]
(b) x-intercept: $0 = 2x + 5 \Rightarrow x = -2.5$, so $(-2.5, 0)$. [2]
(c) Intercepts: $(0,5)$ and $(-2.5,0)$. Area = $\frac{1}{2} \times 2.5 \times 5 = 6.25$ sq units. [2]

12. [4 marks]
$x^2-6x + y^2+4y = 12 \Rightarrow (x-3)^2 -9 + (y+2)^2 -4 = 12 \Rightarrow (x-3)^2+(y+2)^2 = 25$. Centre $(3,-2)$, radius $5$.
Answer: $(x-3)^2+(y+2)^2=25$, centre $(3,-2)$, r=5 (4 marks)

13. [4 marks]
$x^2 + (x+1)^2 = 25 \Rightarrow 2x^2+2x-24=0 \Rightarrow x^2+x-12=0 \Rightarrow (x+4)(x-3)=0$.

Answer: $M(-4,-3), N(3,4)$ (4 marks)

14. [4 marks]
Sub: $x^2 + (2x+5)^2 = 5 \Rightarrow 5x^2+20x+20=0 \Rightarrow x^2+4x+4=0 \Rightarrow (x+2)^2=0$. One solution ⇒ tangent.
