F1/FP1 WFM01/01 IAL answers

was very hard compared to papers jan 24-jan 26, id expect around 60 for an A

Q1.

dont remember c

k=20.4

inverse was 1/10k-204 and then the changed c

Q2.

focus (5/2,0) diretrix x=-5/2

points where (35/2, 5 root 7) (35/2, -5 root 7)

Q3.

a+b=1/2 ap=3/2

a^3 + b^3 = -15/6 or divided by 4 i dont remember

32x^2 + 230x + 575 = 0

Q4. i dont remember

Q5.

proved within the intervals

the interval bisection was [5.05, 5.075]

f prime x = 1/10 -3/2 x^1/2 + 4x^-1/2 + 8x^-3/2

estimate for beta was i think 3.324 or something along those lines

Q6.

other root was 1-4i

z^2 - 2z + 17

factoriised form f(z)= (z^2 - 2z + 17)(3z-2)(4z+9)

A = - 5 B = 148 C = 359

argand diagram had points 1+4i 1-4i 2/3 and -9/4

Q7.

first was a strech of scale factor of 3 parralel to y axis

second was (0, -1) for top row and (-1, 0) bottom row

product was (0, -3) and bottom row (-1, 0)

last part was insane by the way, had to derive my own area of a hexagon which turned out to be wrong, so i think ill get 1-2 marks but the answer was 1.96

Q8.

indcution dont really know hot explain but f(k) was factorisable in f(k+1) with a 5(2 to the power of 2k)

Q9

first proof was explanatory

could not prove second, anyone did it? i plugged in point so got 1

last one was 10 got it wrong tho
