This was surprising as we thought that the context for Q9 would appear attractive to candidates and, with a focus upon the construction industry, provide a clear opportunity to achieve application marks for the use of case study references.As in the January and June 2014 reports, more work is required on the interpetation of charts, graphs and numerical data.Distinguishing between GDP and GDP gowth showed some very common misunderstandings. Again, as in the January and June 2014 reports, candidates need to learn pecise definitions and have more experience interpreting macroeconomic data.For supported multiple choice questions, simply repeating the stem of the question or simply rejecting by saying cannot be A because it is B is not going to achieve a mark. A rejection mark must be explained.The use of data and context is very important in Section B. In some cases candidates were completing purelygeneric responses, making no rerefence to the data and therefore not really ansering the question. Their knowledge, application and analysis marks were often limited as a result.Diagrams must be drawn correctly for full credit. There were numerous examples of either partiallydrawn AD/AS diagams or incorrectly labelled dagrams. It is important that candidates practice drawing diagrams and labelling them correctly.Candidates must understand the difference between SRAS and LRAS and this is represented in their diagrams. There were some excellent responses where candidates referrred to the effects of investment upon AD and LRAS. This demonstrated good engagement with the issues surrounding high and low levels of investment in bith Q9 and Q10.Question 1This question was generally not well answered with a very low mean mark and a mode of 0.It was surprising how many candidates failed to notice that the question was about GDP growth and not GDP (there are no total GDP figures in the stem of the question or the data table). Many candidates selected Option B for the Part A. This showed that either the candidate did not understand the difference between DP and GDP growth or else had misread the question.Candidates were rewarded for defining GDP growth or economic growth, although many defined GDP and failed to achieve marks.Remember that candidates can achieve 3 marks for the explanation even if they get Part A incorrect; rejection marks are available even if part A is wrong so candidates shold be encouraged to explain why at least one of the distractors is not correct.Question 2There were some very good responses to this question with a mean of 3 and mode of 4 marks. Accurate diagrams were awarded 2 marks along with precise definitions to achieve 3 marks for Part B. Many candidates accurately defined inflation for which they were awarded a mark.The rejection points had to be explained/developed to some extent to be rewarded with a mark. There were many examples of candidates simply offering the unsupported assertion that currency depreciation will increase AD without explaining why or that lower interest rates will create inflationary pressures with no explanation.Question 3Many candidates performed well on this question with a mean of 2 and a mode of 3, most achieving full marks for Part A and then going on to define macroeconomic policy objectives, with relevant examples (including economic growth and environmental sustainability). They then went on to analyse the clash, or trade off, between economic growth and environmental damage. Some tried to explain the clash in terms of the local farmers losing their jobs (increasing unemployment). This was not in the mark scheme as the mine would create employment. The focus of the question was upon economic growth versus environmental degradation.This question was not answered as well, wth a mean and mode of 2 marks. Manycandidates are getting Part A correct and clearly understood the nature of capital investment and the relationship to productivity, AD and LRAS. However, manyfailed to note that investment as a % of GDP in Greece was falling. They talked about investment as a component of AD but did not refer to the impact of falling investment. They were not therefore awarded analysis marks for their response.There were a few examples where candidates provided a diagram – this was acceptable and was rewarded for showing inward shift of AD or of LRAS. Some candidates provide diagrams but showed increasing investment which was not the case in this question.Question 5This was generally well answered with a mean of 3 and a mode of 4. A large number of candidates got part A correct. Many annotated the diagram correctly (a few created their own diagram) and then showed an understanding of commodities and the likely impact upon production costs (and impact upon SRAS). Some candidates who got Part A incorrect were still able to achieve a mark for Part B by associating commodities with (falling) production costs. Not many candidates seemed to attempt to cover the rejection marks which is always a risky strategy in terms of examination tecnique.It was pleasing to see that centres had apparently taken the advice from the January and June 2014 reports and learned about the impact of commodity prices upon the macroeconomy.Question 6There were many reasonable responses to this question, with a mean of 2 and a mode of 3 marks. Many candidates were able to either define the multiplier (using the correct formula) and/or complete the calculation, achieving 2 marks for Part B. They were less successful in explaining the multiplier, with some vague and confusing explanations. In order to achieve explanation marks it had to be clear that the candidate understand the process and did not just assert that “investment increases AD”.Question 7This was quite well answered with a mean of 2 and a mode of 3 marks. There were some attempts to introduce micro analysis, increasing labour supply reducing costs for firms. Many candidates mentioned an increase in the size of labour force and were rewarded but very few linked this to potential output. Even fewer qualified the impact upon LRAS in terms of labour productivity, skills etc and so analysis marks were quite rarely awarded.Question 8This was generally well done with a mean of 3 and a mode of 4 marks. Candidates who provided a correct diagram achieved full marks. We were looking for a movement along the SRAS curve; many candidates simply labelled the curve as AS. If the diagram was not fully labelled then relatively easy marks were lost. Where there was no explanation of the mechanism (and no diagram) no application or analysis marks were awarded.Most candidates attempted Q10 rather than Q9 for Section B.As in January and June 2014, there were many formulaic answers which failed toapply knowledge to the data/economies in question. Also, there was again some confusion between the “causes” and the “effects” of policies or changes ineconomic variables.Question 9aThis was generally well answered with a mean of 2 and a mode of 3.Many candidates provided reasonable definition of ILO unemployment achieving 1 or 2 marks and with one data reference, usually the percentage change, thus achieving 3 marks . There were very few examples of candidates who went further, to suggest that the rising unemployment may have been due to the collapse of construction industry.Question 9bThe general standard of responses to this question was disappointing, given the clear extracts and data, with a mean of 5 and a mode of 6 marks. We were looking for the use of data to discuss the boom and bust in the construction sector and its impact upon the Spanish economy. Many candidates used the data but did not really develop their analysis or offer much evaluation in terms of the macroeconomic impact. There were some purely generic responses discussing increases in AD with no reference to the Spanish context which could not achieve more that 6 marks for knowledge, application and analysis (KAA).Question 9cThe mean and mode for this qustion was a low 4 marks. There were no marks here for defining unemployment, as these marks are awarded in Q9a. Candidates need to understand that repeated definitions are unlikely to be double marked. Data references were required to lift KAA marks above 4. Again, generic responses can only achieve Level 1KAA. For evaluation marks there had to be an awareness of the potential positive effects f unemployment upon inflation, wages or international competitiveness.Question 9dThere was a mean of 3 and a mode of 4 marks for this question. We were looking for candidates to use the terms surplus and deficit accurately and relate them to the specific data. Then explain the relationship in each case (or implicitly through a logical explanation of deficit). There had to be an explanation of the relationship between unemployment and budget balance for more than 3 marks. Candidates who simply identified a surplus turning into a deficit (without data references), while unemployment increases, failed to explain the relationship. The explanation also needed to be in context for more than 1 mark to be awarded for each relationship. Candidates who just identified 1 relationship (EG high unemployment and budget deficit) could only achieve 3 marks. We were looking for an explanation of the surplus and the deficit for 6 marks.There was a mean of 5 and a mode of 8 marks for this question. Most candidatesreferred to the case study, commenting upon reduced spending and higher taxation. Most completed a correct diagram for up to 4 marks. The use ofcontext then allowed them to access above 6 marks for KAA. The evaluation content in the responses tended to be thin and this restricted access to the higher evaluation marks.Question 10aThis was intended to be a relatively straightforward question targeting basic learning while providing the opportunity for some candidates to demonstrate a more sophisticated understanding of the measure. It was generally answered very well with a mean of 3 and a mode of 4 marks. The main reason for marks being lost was missing elements such as weighting or indexing against a base year.Question 10bThere was a mean a mode of 4 marks for this question.Many responses this question were rather generic. References to the data and/or the UK economy were required to lift the response above 4 marks for KAA. The data emphasised the extent to which inflation is “imported” (cos t-push) as a result of sterling depreciation, however candidates who commented upon the increased demand for UK exports were rewarded. In general, candidates who provided a relevant diagram tended to produce a more focused, coherent response.Question 10cThis question was not well answered, although it was a fairly standard macroeconomic question. There was a low mean of 5 and a mode of just 4 marks. Many candidates failed to use the data effectively and were therefore unable to access above 6 marks for KAA. As in previous series, some confused cause with effect and did not really answer the question.Question 10dThis question was generally answered well, with good definitions, data references and the candidates’ own examples. Many candidates demonstrated a pleasing understanding of the concept of LRAS and full employment, as well as linking to improvements in productivity and efficiency. There was a mean and a mode of 3 marks for this question.Question 10eThere was a mean of 6 and a mode of 7 marks for this question. A diagram was and data references were required to achieve above 6 marks for KAA. There were many generic responses without data references; there were clear references in the data (Extract 2) to low levels of investment in UK economy. Thus candidates who simply discuss the impact of increased investment were not answering in context. The question was about low levels of investment in the UK and the short and long term impact of this. It was not simply a question about investment as a component of AD.Based on their performance on this paper, candidates are offered the following advice:∙Remember to look out for questions that ask you to evaluate your answer.In such questions, try to apply your evaluation to the specific analyticalpoint that you havejust made. For example, rather than a throwawaycomment at the end of a paragraph that "it depends on the elasticity ofthe AS curve" etc., explain what depends on this, why and how this affects your initial argument. Expanding on your evaluative points in this way will help you to achieve higher level evaluation marks.∙Watch your timing throughout the exam, and try to incorporate some time for planning your answers to the longer questions.∙Diagram must be correct to be awarded full marks. Labels for diagrams must show:∙Y-axis: Price Level / CPI (Price on its own is incorrect)∙X-axis: Real output∙SRAS and/or LRAS curves labelled∙AD curve labelled∙Shifted curves labelled correctly∙Changes in price level and real output labelled correctlyGrade BoundariesGrade boundaries for this, and all other papers, can be found on the website on this link:/iwantto/Pages/grade-boundaries.aspxPearson Education Limited.

SAT2数学level2经典考题讲解

SAT2数学level2经典考题讲解

解析:这道题目最本质的考点是:syntheticdivision(综合除法)。

但是对于考生而言,首先要理解的关键数学术语是zero,零点。

什么是零点呢?零点是使得方程的因变量(dependent variable, 即f(x))等于0 (即:图像与x轴相交)的x的值。

以下给出这个方程的图像,从中我们要找出蓝色的曲线和X轴(横轴)相交的三个点的x坐标值。

就本题而言,既然题目说-1是一个零点,那么就将x=-1带入方程,会发现f(x)确实等于0.那么,另外的使方程等于0的x的值应该怎么求得呢?方法1:画图求解,(考场上实际操作可能性为0)。

如上图所示,三个让方程与横轴相交的点的x值分别为-3.5,-1,3。

所以,-1给出来的情况下,另外两个点应该选择C。

但是,考场上根本不可能有时间和工具供我们画图,因此这个方法不是实际操作可行的方法,不予考虑。

方法2:代入法既然是选择题,就可以用带入法求解。

带入法求解的时候,要遵循以下两个原则:(1)带入常见的数值来检验是否正确;(2)在常见数值中带入易于计算的数值来看是否正确。

按照这两个原则,在5个选项中首先带入1来运算,因为好计算,还因为出现了3次。

当x=1时候,f(x)=-36,显然不是0,因此有1的ADE都不是答案。

下一步,在剩下的BC两个选项中,要检验的是-3,因为两项都有3,说明3一定是答案,而-3和-7/2中,-3更方便于计算,于是决定用-3来检验。

当x=-3时候,f(x)=12,显然不是0,因此答案不是B而是C.由此可见,代入法是一个smart strategy,是带有一点小聪明的策略。

在代入法的过程中耗时的长短体现了考生的判断和逻辑分析。

但是,即使可以凭借这种方法选择答案,这也不。

MATHEMATICSGCE Advanced Subsidiary Level Paper 8709/01Paper 1General commentsThe response to this paper was pleasing. There were many excellent scripts and the presentation was generally good. Candidates seemed to have sufficient time to answer all the questions and there was little evidence of later questions being rushed. Much time was lost, however, on Question 3, by candidates who interpreted the word ‘sketch’ as ‘accurate graph’. Many candidates also need to read the rubric which requests that answers to angles should be given correct to 1 decimal place, unless otherwise ments on specific questionsQuestion 1The majority of candidates elected to form a quadratic equation in x by eliminating y from the given equations. Only about half of these recognised the need to set b ² − 4ac to 0, and many others failed to set the quadratic to 0 before applying b ² − 4ac = 0. Many candidates preferred to equate the gradient of the line with the differential of x ² − 6x + 14 and then to obtain x , y and finally k . This method was usually successful,but setting the gradient to either 0 or to 2 were common errors.Answer : k = 10.Question 2(i)Most candidates realised the need to take 2 out of the expression, but errors such as ‘2x 2 − 12x + 11 = 2(x 2 − 12x + 5.5) leading to 2(x − 6)2 + …’ were common.(ii)This was badly answered with many candidates either substituting x = 0 or obtaining a table ofvalues. The answer −7 ≤ f (x ) ≤ 11 was common, as was f (x ) ≥ 11. Many candidates failed to realise that there was a link with part (i), (i.e. f(x ) ≥ c ) and preferred to use calculus to find the minimum point (3, −7). Even then it was not automatic to state f (x ) ≥ −7.Answers : (i) 2(x − 3)2 − 7; (ii) f(x ) ≥ −7.Question 3(i) Most candidates correctly drew the graph of y = cos x , although ‘V’ shapes were common. Very fewdrew the graph of y = cos3x correctly, most thinking either that the graph lay between −3 and +3 or that the graph of y = cos x had the same shape as y = cos3x between 0 and 2p . Many candidates wasted considerable time by ignoring the instruction ‘sketch’ and instead drawing accurate graphs.(ii)Only a handful of candidates realised that for f to have an inverse it needed to be 1 : 1 and that this only occurred for 0 ≤ x ≤ p , leading to k = p .Answers : (i) Sketch; (ii) k = p .Question 4Candidates should realise that a request for an answer in terms of p and 3means that use of a calculator will lead to loss of marks. Many candidates failed to realise that angle POQ = 31p or that cos30º = 213.Use of s = r θ with θ in degrees occurred occasionally and a common error was to assume that the radius of the arc PXQ was PS rather than PO . The most common error however was to express cos30° = OS6 as OS = 6cos30°.Answer : 4p + 83.Question 5This was well answered and a half of all attempts were completely correct. Occasionally the surface area was given as 3x 3 and there were solutions in which areas of only 3 or 5 faces were considered.Differentiation was usually correct. In part (ii), although the chain rule was usually correctly quoted for the variables concerned, there were misunderstandings over tA d d = 0.14 and often the rate of decrease of x was given as x t d d rather than t x d d .Answers : (i) A = 14x ² andx A d d = 28x ; (ii) 0.0025.Question 6At least a half of all attempts were completely correct. There were occasional errors in the calculation of the gradient of AB , but most candidates realised that the gradient of the line L 2 was −121¸. There were a few misunderstandings of the relationship between L 1 and L 2, particularly from weaker candidates who automatically involved the mid-point of the line AB . The solution of the simultaneous equations was very well done.Answer : (4, 6).Question 7(i)Although a few candidates took ‘(2s + c )² = 4s ² + c ² ’ and ‘(2c − s )² = 4c ² ± s ² ’, most correctlycancelled the 4cos θsin θ and reduced the expression to 5s ² + 5c ² and from there to 5. Others however divided throughout by 5 and stated the answer as 1.(ii)Most realised the need to collect terms and to express 7sin θ = 4cos θ as tan θ =74. Despite having the formula on the formula sheet, many expressed tan θ as cos θ ÷ sin θ, or were unable to manipulate the expressions correctly. Candidates need to read questions closely, for many omitted to find the corresponding values of θ. It was very rare for candidates to go wrong over which quadrants to use.Answers : (i) a ² + b ² = 5; (ii) tan θ =74, θ = 29.7º or 209.7º. Question 8At least a quarter of all candidates failed to read the question carefully and took the progression as being arithmetic. Of the other attempts, many were completely correct and it was surprising to see some weaker candidates scoring highly on this question. Some wrote down all the amounts for the first 10 years of operation, and others incorrectly took the n th term as ar n . In part (ii) common errors were to take the 20th term rather than the sum of 20 terms and the formula for sum of 20 terms was often taken as S n = 21n (1 - r n - 1)/(1 - r ). It was pleasing that in part (iii) the majority of candidates realised the need to findthe sum to infinity.Answers : (i) 775kg; (ii) 17 600kg; (iii) 20 000kg.Question 9(i)About a half of all candidates took the equation of the curve to be the equation of the tangent and astraight line with gradient 21 was depressingly common. Surprisingly enough, many of these candidates then realised the need to integrate the given expression for xy d d and produced this in part (ii). The integration was generally good, though common errors were to fail to cope with the negative power, to ignore the integral of −3 or to fail to realise the need to include and evaluate the constant of integration.(ii)Most realised the need to setx y d d to 0 to find the stationary point and despite a few algebraic slips,most obtained x = 2. Answers : (i) y = 212x -− 3x + 31; (ii) (2, 22).Question 10There were many excellent responses to this question and the candidates’ ability to calculate ‘scalar product’was impressive. Unfortunately, too many marks were lost in the first part through failure to obtain correct expressions for the vectors MN and MD . A surprising number of candidates totally ignored the dimensions of the problem (i.e. OA = 6cm, OC = 8cm and OB = 16cm) and gave their answers with coefficients of i , j and k as ±1 or ±21. Others were able to cope with but struggled with the fact that N was the mid-point of AC . Even then, all the method marks available for part (ii) were usually obtained.Answers : (i) MN = −3i − 8j + 4k , MD = −6i + 8j + 8k ; (ii) −14, 97º.Question 11Many candidates scored highly on the question, but for weaker candidates, failure to recognise the need for ‘function of a function’ led to loss of marks. Surprisingly, several candidates took the gradient of the tangentto be the gradient of the normal and calculated −1 ÷ xy d d , but otherwise part (i) was usually correct. The follow through mark for part (ii) was nearly always obtained, though a few candidates put y = 0 rather than x = 0.In part (iii), the integration was surprisingly better than the differentiation in part (i) and more candidates included the ‘81’ than the ‘8’ in part (i). Most candidates worked about the x -axis and realised the need to subtract areas. Use of limits was generally correct, though 0 to 5 was often used instead of 0 to 3. The most common error was to automatically assume that the value of any expression at 0 is 0. Candidates choosing to work about the y -axis fared badly because it was very rarely realised that the limits for the line were different from the limits for the curve.Answers : (i) 5y = 4x + 13; (ii) (0, 2.6); (iii) 1516 or 1.07 unit 2 .Paper 8709/02Paper 2General commentsFew high marks were scored by candidates, largely due to candidates’ weaknesses in certain areas of the syllabus, such as integration and iteration techniques. There was a general tendency to use degrees, rather than radians, for angles.Conversely, there were certain key techniques, such as differentiation of functions, that were commonly the source of many marks for candidates.Work was clear and neat, with no evidence of candidates running out of time at the end of the paper. Comments on specific questionsQuestion 1Many candidates scored full marks and recognised that each value of tan x gave rise to two values of x. Weaker solutions, that scored no marks, showed no use of the condition sec2x = 1 + tan2x and intractable equations involving both cos x and sin x, with neither of these having been eliminated, were common.Answer: x = 135º or 315º, 56.3º or 236.3º.Question 2(i)As the answer was given, weaker candidates struggled to produce it via errors such as u2 = 2x+1and 4x = 2.2x = 2u. However, most candidates obtained the given result correctly.(ii)Many candidates obtained the correct result u = 1 + 13» 4.6055, but then failed to solve for x = ln u¸ ln2.Answer: (ii)x = 2.20.Question 3(i)Most candidates correctly sketched the line 2y = x + 1, but very few obtained a plot of 2y = ½x− 4½,and most graphs showed portions of that line below the x-axis.(ii)There were a pleasing number of fully correct solutions, sometimes based on ‘trial and error’, or simply by quoting the answer. Weaker solutions involved squaring one or both of the equations of the two lines, but with only one side being squared, e.g. 2y = (x− 4)2.Answer: (ii)x = 1.5, y = 1.25.Question 4Although many candidates noted that ln y = lnA + n ln x, wrong answers were often based on false variants, such as ln y = (A n)ln x. There was a marked tendency to substitute the values (1, 2.4) and (4, 0.6) into the original equation y = A x n rather than into the ln y versus ln x relation.Answer: n = −0.6, A = e3 = 20.1Question 5(a)This part was very well done, with a sound grasp of all the essential ideas.(b)There were many excellent solutions, and this question was admirably handled. Only occasionallywas the derivative of xy given as xx y d d only.Answers : (a)94, (b) y + 4x = 14.Question 6(i)Although this part presented little or no problems, candidates struggled thereafter.(ii)Almost all candidates expressed u 2 = tan −12 in degrees , without noting the vast disparity between this value and that of u 1 = 1. (iii)Almost no one could cope with this part, failing to spot that, as n ® ¥, u n and u n + 1 tend to the samelimiting value, this latter being the required value x m .Answer : (ii) 1.08.Question 7(i)There were many sign errors, for example, cos 2x ≡21(1 − cos2x ), and often a factor ‘2’ was omitted. (ii)Candidates failed to remove brackets and use the twin results of (i). Many candidates believedthat ()()[]f f f f ¢==+òò3,3d d cos 3sin 23322x x x x x or f ¢2.Answer : (ii) ()83413+p » 9.36.Paper 8709/04Paper 4General commentsThe paper was generally well attempted. However candidates often failed to obtain answers correct to three significant figures, even when correct methods were used. This is a problem which Centres are urged to address. Most inaccuracy arises from premature approximation.There is clearly a problem too, with terminology. Familiarity with and understanding of terms germane to the syllabus are expected. In very many cases candidates attempted to find forces when work done by forces was required, and coefficient of friction when frictional force was required.Inappropriate use was made of µR F = in both Question 5 and Question 7.Comments on specific questionsQuestion 1Most candidates answered this question correctly.A few candidates used sine instead of cosine; some did not use the given angle, obtaining the incorrect answer of 2400 J.Mis-reading 30 N and 10o as 10 N and 30owas fairly common.Answer : 2360 J.Question 2Most candidates scored the two marks in part (i) of the question. However mistakes were frequently made in part (ii), the most common of which were:Showing the maximum speed as 12.5 ms-1 (from 1500/120) despite having the correct answer in (i).Having a positive slope for the constant speed stage.Having a positive slope for the deceleration stage.Failing to terminate the deceleration stage on the t-axis, even in cases where the slope is negative.Showing a slope for the acceleration stage which is as steep, or steeper, than that for the deceleration stage.Answers: (i) 25 ms-1; (ii)Sketch.Question 3This question was well attempted.Many candidates failed to score the last two marks because they gave the wrong direction (downwards instead of upwards) for the frictional force.Many candidates lost the final mark because of lack of accuracy.Answer: P = 0.768.Question 4Most candidates recognised the need to integrate the given v(t) in part (i), although some obtained s = 4t2 – 0.04t4 using the inappropriate constant speed formula ‘speed = distance /time’, and some obtained s = 2t2 – 0.06t4 using the inappropriate constant acceleration formula s = ut + ½ at2 via s = ½ (4 – 0.12t2)t2.Some candidates who did integrate found problems in dealing with the constant of integration. Some found it to be equal to 100 leading to the equation 2t2 – 0.01t4 = 0 and some left the constant as ‘c’ and were thus unable to solve 2t2 – 0.01t4 + c = 100.Most candidates recognised that setting s(t) = 100 leads to a quadratic equation in t2, but attempts to solve the quadratic were generally rather poor. A common approach was to say t2(2 – 0.01t2) = 100 Þt2 = 100 or 2 – 0.01t2 = 100 Þt2 = 100 or t2 = -9800, or a variation of this erroneous method.Frequently candidates used a basically correct method for the quadratic, but called the repeated root t instead of t2.Yet another erroneous approach was to use the quadratic formula, but with a = 2 and b = -0.01, instead of the other way round.In part (ii) most candidates recognised the need to differentiate v(t) and most did this correctly.Answers: (i)t = 10; (ii) slowing down.Question 5Almost all candidates answered part (i) correctly, but in part (ii) most candidates used a circular argument in which the required result was implicitly assumed.In part (iii) most candidates recognised the need to resolve forces horizontally and vertically on B. In some cases the weight of B was omitted when resolving vertically, but generally candidates obtained equations with the correct numbers of terms.A number of candidates failed to realise the need also to resolve forces vertically on R in order to be able to quantify the tension occurring in their equations.A common error in resolving forces onB vertically was to have the wrong sign for the tension term, giving the normal component as 0.5 N in cases which were otherwise correct.Many candidates incorrectly used µR instead of F for the frictional component, giving an answer forµinstead of an answer for F.Answers:(i)T AR = T BR ;(iii) 5.5 N, 4.33 N.Question 6Almost all candidates obtained the correct answer in part (i).Candidates also correctly found the speed of P at the instant that Q strikes the ground. However it is doubtful that many candidates were correctly motivated to find this speed, judging from the absence of correct work, from almost all candidates, beyond this stage. Very few candidates appreciated that P is moving under gravity whilst the string is slack.A few candidates did obtain the distance travelled upwards by P, under gravity, but many such candidates failed to double this distance to obtain the required answer.Answers: (i) 1.11 ms-2; (ii) 0.316 s; (iii) 1 m.Question 7In part (i) many candidates obtained the gain in gravitational potential energy correctly, but asserted incorrectly that this is the work done against the resistance to motion. Others obtained the work done by the car’s engine correctly, but asserted that this is the required answer.Among the candidates who had all three terms present in the work/energy equation, many made sign errors.Many candidates used the formula ‘WD = Fd cos a inappropriately (= 1800´500 cos 6o).Many candidates who found a quantity of work of some sort, divided this quantity by 500 to obtain an answer for the resistance, believing this to be what was required for the answer.A few candidates approached part (i) by first resolving forces on the car to find the magnitude of the resistance, and then multiplying by the distance travelled. Such candidates were generally successful. However almost all of the candidates who set out to find the magnitude of the resistance asserted that this was the answer sought, demonstrating an absence of understanding of work done.In part (ii) many candidates obtained the gain in kinetic energy correctly, but asserted incorrectly that this is the work done by the car’s engine.Very few candidates had all four terms present in the work/energy equation. It was very common for one or both of the gain in gravitational potential energy and the work done by the resistance to be omitted.Much the most common approach in part (ii) was to assume, implicitly and wrongly, that the acceleration is constant. In this case a special ruling allowed candidates to score up to 2 marks. Very few achieved this however; rarely were all four terms present in the equation of motion, and multiplication of the driving force by the distance was often omitted.In both parts (i) and (ii) it was very common to see µR written for the resistance to motion, and sometimes a value for ‘coefficient of friction’ was found.Although a candidate’s (erroneous) method for finding the work done by the car’s engine in part (ii) implies that the driving force is constant (usually 2360 N), this was often followed in part (iii) by actual values (usually 9440 and 2360) in the ratio 4:1 at the top and bottom of the hill. Where such cases led to the correct answer of 10:1 for the required ratio, using relatively correct working, Examiners allowed 1 mark out of 3 to be scored.Some candidates scored all three marks in part (iii), and in a few cases these were the only marks scored in the question.Answers: (i) 273 000 J; (ii) 1 180 000 J; (iii) 10:1.Paper 8709/06Paper 6General commentsThe paper produced a wide range of marks. All questions were well attempted, with almost everyone finishing in the required time. It was pleasing to see that most candidates worked to at least 4 significant figures and corrected to 3 at the end.Comments on specific questionsQuestion 1There was, alas, about one fifth of candidates who could not do the standard deviation, squaring Σx to find Σ(x 2). An accuracy mark was also lost by those who worked to 3 significant figures throughout, instead of 4significant figures and correcting to 3 at the end. Candidates who just wrote down the correct answers from their calculator gained full marks, while other candidates received no marks for just incorrect answers.Answers : 13.1, 2.76.Question 2This, the first serious question on permutations and combinations in the new syllabus, showed that most candidates had covered the topic and had an idea how to start. However, many candidates failed to associate the words in order , which were written in italics to bring attention to them, with the associated permutations, and wrote 10C 6 instead of 10P 6. The second part was well attempted.Answers : (a) 151 200; (b) 144.Question 3This was a straightforward question, which gained full marks for many candidates.Answers : (i) 0.82; (ii) 0.293.Question 4(i) The histogram had a variety of frequency densities, ranging from frequency/class width,frequency/midpoint, class width/frequency, cumulative frequency/class width, and many other combinations. The good point is that nearly all candidates realised that some adjustment had to be made. Axes were labelled and headings were clear.(ii)This part was the worst answered part of the whole paper. Many candidates did not attempt it,some found the probability of one church having less than 61 people, and then multiplied it by 3, or just left it as a single probability. A few candidates used combinations. Both cubing and combinations were acceptable.Answer : (ii) 0.171 or 0.172.Question 5The normal distribution does not offer many varieties of approach, either finding a probability as in part (i) or finding an x as in part (ii). The second part proved too difficult for many candidates. Many could not read the tables backwards, and many seemed to use the body of the tables rather than the critical values part at the foot of the page. This resulted in a slightly different z -value, which was not penalised this time, but could be in future. Part (iii) involved appreciating that a probability is just that, and an associated number can beobtained from P(S ) = )n()n(E S . Candidates who used a continuity correction gained one mark only in each part.Answers : (i) 0.117; (ii) 20.4; (iii) 23.Question 6This question was well done by the majority of candidates. Some candidates did not appear to understand what ‘fewer’ meant, and some even found P(0) + P(1) + P(2) …up to P(9)! They were not penalised except in terms of time. Part (ii) also produced many good solutions. There was the usual number of wrong and absent continuity corrections and muddles with standard deviation and variance of course, but overall it was a pleasingly answered question.Answers: (i) 0.849; (ii) 0.0519.Question 7Most candidates managed part (i) and this showed them how to approach part (ii), with mixed success, but provided they had some probabilities in their distribution table, credit was given for applying their knowledge of mean and variance. A small percentage of candidates failed to recognise that ‘mean’ was the same as E(X), and divided their E(X) by the number of different values of X that they had.Answers: (ii)XProb0.16710.520.330.0333(iii) 1.2, 0.56.。
