Answer Key (Version 2)

Section A

$7.24 \times 10^{-4}$ (1 mark)
$y(x-5) = 3x + 2 \rightarrow xy - 5y = 3x + 2 \rightarrow xy - 3x = 5y + 2 \rightarrow x(y-3) = 5y + 2 \rightarrow x = \frac{5y+2}{y-3}$ (2 marks)
$\xi = \{1, 2, ..., 10\}, A \cup B = \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7\}$ . $(A \cup B)' = \{6, 8, 9, 10\}$ (2 marks)
$y = 12 - 1.5x \rightarrow 5x - (12 - 1.5x) = 7 \rightarrow 6.5x = 19 \rightarrow x = 2.92, y = 3.62$ (approx) or solve via elimination: $3x+2y=12, 10x-2y=14 \rightarrow 13x=26 \rightarrow x=2, y=3$ (3 marks)
$6a(x^2 - 4) = 6a(x-2)(x+2)$ (2 marks)
$y = k/x^2 \rightarrow 8 = k/9 \rightarrow k = 72$ . When $x=2, y = 72/4 = 18$ (2 marks)
$s = r\theta = 8 \times 1.5 = 12\text{cm}$ (2 marks)
$\angle BAC = 40, \angle ACB = 75 \rightarrow \angle ABC = 180 - 115 = 65^\circ$ . $\frac{BC}{\sin 40} = \frac{6}{\sin 75} \rightarrow BC = \frac{6 \times 0.6428}{0.9659} = 3.99\text{cm} \approx 4.00\text{cm}$ (3 marks)
Base $AB = 6-2 = 4$ . Area $= 0.5 \times 4 \times h = 10 \rightarrow h = 5$ . Height is $|y_P - y_{AB}| = |4 - 1| = 3$ . Wait, the area is fixed at 10, but the height is fixed at 3. This means $x$ can be any value if the base is on the x-axis? No, $A$ and $B$ are $(2,1)$ and $(6,1)$ . Base is horizontal. Height is $4-1=3$ . Area $= 0.5 \times 4 \times 3 = 6$ . Since $6 \neq 10$ , there are no values of $x$ that make the area 10 for $y=4$ . Correction for marking: If the question intended $y$ to be unknown, $k$ would be found. As written, the area is constant regardless of $x$ . (3 marks for logic)
$\vec{AB} = \vec{OB} - \vec{OA} = (1-4)\mathbf{i} + (5-(-2))\mathbf{j} = -3\mathbf{i} + 7\mathbf{j}$ . $|\vec{AB}| = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + 7^2} = \sqrt{58} \approx 7.62$ (3 marks)
$25\pi = 0.5 \times 10^2 \times \theta \rightarrow \theta = 0.5\pi$ radians. $\theta = 90^\circ$ (2 marks)
$6x - 3 \le 5x + 4 \rightarrow x \le 7$ . Number line: closed circle at 7, arrow to the left. (3 marks)
Total marks for 10 = 650. Total for 11 = $66 \times 11 = 726$ . New mark $= 726 - 650 = 76$ (2 marks)
$P = \frac{6}{10} \times \frac{5}{9} = \frac{30}{90} = \frac{1}{3}$ (3 marks)
Other side $= \sqrt{13^2 - 5^2} = 12$ . Smallest angle is opposite shortest side (5). $\sin \theta = 5/13$ (2 marks)
$4x^2 / y$ (2 marks)
Gradient $m_1 = 2 \rightarrow m_2 = -1/2$ . $y - (-3) = -0.5(x - 2) \rightarrow y + 3 = -0.5x + 1 \rightarrow y = -0.5x - 2$ (3 marks)
Exterior angle $= 180 - 144 = 36^\circ$ . $n = 360/36 = 10$ sides (2 marks)
$h = \sqrt{10^2 - 4^2} = \sqrt{84} \approx 9.165$ . $V = \frac{1}{3}\pi(4^2)(9.165) \approx 153\text{cm}^3$ (3 marks)
$x = ky^3 \rightarrow 54 = k(27) \rightarrow k = 2$ . When $y=5, x = 2(125) = 250$ (3 marks)

Section B

(a)(i) $PR^2 = 8^2 + 11^2 - 2(8)(11)\cos 62^\circ \rightarrow PR^2 = 64 + 121 - 176(0.469) \rightarrow PR = \sqrt{102.1} \approx 10.1\text{cm}$ (3 marks) (ii) Area $= 0.5 \times 8 \times 11 \times \sin 62^\circ = 44 \times 0.883 = 38.9\text{cm}^2$ (2 marks) (b) $PQ = 8, QS = 8, \angle RQS = 30^\circ, RQ = 11$ . $RS^2 = 8^2 + 11^2 - 2(8)(11)\cos 30^\circ = 64 + 121 - 176(0.866) = 185 - 152.4 = 32.6 \rightarrow RS = 5.71\text{cm}$ (4 marks)
(a) Median = value at 20th position. IQR = $Q_3 - Q_1$ . (4 marks) (b) $P(\text{fail}) = \frac{\text{count below 45}}{40}$ (3 marks) (c) Group 1 is more consistent because a smaller standard deviation indicates data is more closely clustered around the mean. (3 marks)
(a) $AB^2 = 45^2 + 60^2 - 2(45)(60)\cos 110^\circ = 2025 + 3600 - 5400(-0.342) = 5625 + 1846.8 = 7471.8 \rightarrow AB = 86.4\text{m}$ (4 marks) (b) Area $= 0.5 \times 45 \times 20 = 450\text{m}^2$ (3 marks) (c) $\tan \theta = 15/45 = 1/3 \rightarrow \theta = \tan^{-1}(0.333) = 18.4^\circ$ (3 marks)
