 Question 1)
a)
5 1
BC + b = 2(BC + b) (1)
7 2
5
BC + b = 2BC + b
7
5 1
b − b = BC
 7 2
10 7
− b = BC
14 14
3
b = BC (1)
14
3
BC = b
14
or

1 5 1
(BC + b) = BC + b (1)
2 7 2
1 5 1
BC + b = BC + b
2 14 2
5 1 1
b − b = BC
 14 2 2
10 14 1
− b = BC (1)
28 28 2
1 1
− b = BC
14 2
2
BC = − b (1)
14
1
BC = − b

b)
1 3
OA = 3a and since scale factor of so BE = a (1)
  2 2
3
therefore BF = λ a (1)

c)
 
5 1
AC = −3a + + b (1)
7 21
16 16
= −3a + b therefore AF = µ(−3a + b) (1)
21 21

d)
 
5 3
OF = b+λ a (1)
7 2
16
OF = 3a + µ(−3a + b) (1)
21

1 mark for both equations written correctly.

5 16
coefficient of b : = µ
7 21
3
coefficient of a : λ = 3 − 3µ

15
Therefore µ = 16 and λ = 81 .
Correct values of λ and µ receive 3/3 marks given an appropriate
method.
(1) Indicating one mark awarded.

Question 2)
a) Write down the first 6 Fibonacci numbers, and state the sum < 1 >

1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8
Sum = 20
Cao − 1 mark

b) Consider how the sum changes after each step in the situation above < 2 >

Decreases by 1 - Both marks

c) Write down the maximum final number of friends Daryl can have and why.
<2>

Mention of there being 5 ’steps’/operations/’process’. − 1 mark

If no marks are awarded, give 1 mark for stating the final number is 0.

 Question 3a)
Simplify the expression and find the derivative:
x2/3
 
ln +x1/2
e 1

Solution:
2/3
+x1/2 )
eln(x
= x2/3 + x1/2
e
d  2/3  2 1
x + x1/2 = x−1/3 + x−1/2
dx 3 2
1 mark for simplifying the expression, 1 mark for the correct derivative.
