Paper 1 4. (a) gf : x → x2 + 6x + 2
gf (x) = x2 + 6x + 2

3 30 = u2 – 8u + 16 + 6u – 24 + 2
4 40 = u2 – 2u – 6
∴ g(x) = x2 – 2x – 6

Based on the above arrow diagram,

(a) the object of 40 is 3,

When particle B returns to O, aB =12(4) – 14 = 34 m s–2
sB = 0

t(2t 2 – 7t – 15) = 0 

t(2t + 3)(t – 5) = 0 v = a dt

v = (12 – 6t) dt
t = 0, – 3 or 5 v = 12t – 3t2 + c

When t = 0, v = 15. Thus, c = 15
t = 0 and t = – 3 are not accepted ∴ v = 12t – 3t2 + 15

s = (12t – 3t2 + 15) dt v >0
s = 6t 2 – t 3 + 15t + c 12t – 3t 2 + 15 > 0
When t = 0, s = 0. Thus, c = 0. 3t 2 – 12t – 15 < 0

3t2 – 12t – 15 = 0 –1 < t < 5
t2 – 4t – 5 = 0
(t – 5)(t + 1) = 0 Since the values of t cannot be negative,
t = 5 or –1 therefore 0 ≤ t < 5.
t = –1 is not accepted
