If I remember correctly: -1/8cos(3t)


I had -sec^3(3t)/8 I think?
Some answers:

1. 0.74379 to 5dp
Multiply this by e: 2.02183 to 5dp.

2. 30, 150, 196.6, 343.4 degrees

146.3,326.3 degrees

3. 23\dfrac{2}{3}

4. 12tan3t-\frac{1}{2}\tan 3t
18sec33t-\frac{1}{8}\sec^3 3t
1y3-\dfrac{1}{y^3}

5. Perimeter = Arc Length + Chord Length, arc length is easy, chord length can be found with a right-angled triangle with angle θ2\dfrac{\theta}{2}.
Usual stuff with iterations etc; for function use f(θ)=θ+2sinθ24.5f(\theta)=\theta +2\sin\frac{\theta}{2}-4.5

6. An easy counterexample is a=b=1,c=2,d=3a=b=1, c=2, d=3

7. x=13x=-\dfrac{1}{3} (x=2x=2 doesn't work)

8. a=3,5a=-3,5
b=23b=-\frac{2}{3}

9. f1(x)=123ln(x8)f^{-1}(x)=12-3\ln(x-8)
Domain is [9,+)[9,+\infty)

10. To show hh(x)=xhh(x)=x simply expand out the left.
So it is clear that h is its own inverse and so h1(1)=19h^{-1}(-1)=\frac{1}{9}

That's all I can remember, please correct anything that's wrong :smile:.

EDIT: Just realised I left out diff/int questions.

Differentiation: ln(cosx)\ln(\cos x) gives tanx-\tan x,

tan1(x3)\tan^{-1}(\frac{x}{3}) gives 39+x2\dfrac{3}{9+x^2}

e6x(3x2)4e^{6x}(3x-2)^4 gives 18xe6x(3x2)318xe^{6x}(3x-2)^3

Integration: a=2.3a=2.3

I had different ans for q2 I and 210 and 330 for 2 of them

Does anyone have the paper yet? Also who usually makes unofficial mark schemes / when will one be up?

I posted one above :smile:.
For Q7) x=2 didnt work but I believe x=-2 did, so I had x=-1/3 and x=-2

Wasn't the equation 5x+4=7x|5x+4|=-7x? (I might be mistaken.)
Yeah either that or 5X-4, I'm hoping it was 5X-4 now!

But then x=13x=-\frac{1}{3} is not a solution so it can't be 5x45x-4.
I'm slightly surprised that people found that easier than last year's paper... I'm anticipating getting 60/61 on that, which definitely won't be 90 UMS... I'll have to compensate on C4. :sigh:

Did you check my unofficial ms, maybe you picked up more marks than you thought? :smile: (Although I can't guarantee they're all correct.)
Yep you're right, damn

Is it 90 UMS in BOTH c3 and c4, or 180 over both papers for an A*?

I'm not even aiming for an A* but I'm not sure what the boundaries are for it
Can someone run through how question 2a was supposed to be done? I only managed to get two solutions, so I'm guessing I mucked up the algebra. Hopefully I won't lose all 6 marks...
Does anyone remember how integration and differentiation question looked like? I remember only ln(cosx)

e^6x (4x-5)^4?

I think I've misremembered the inside of the bracket though but the rest is right.

and tan^-1 (X/3)

180 over both.

I did, and it doesn't seem that I did, I'm afraid. :colondollar:
I also got a much more complicated expression for the second derivative in terms of y in question 3b)...
WJEC and its weird papers. :facepalm:
what is 54/75 UMS wise?
also what did everyone get for the value of a in 7b integration question, i got 0.1
