b) Assume the rate of increase of the volume of water in the cone is . Find the rate of change of the depth of water, leaving your answer in terms of .

Answer:

Q5:
, . The point P (k, 2) is a point of the curve with these parametric equations.

a) Find the value of k.

Answer: (note that

b) Find the equation of the tangent at P,. Give your answer in the form , where p and q are exact real constants.

Answer:

Q6:

Given that when , solve the differential equation

Answer:

Q8:

a) Find

Answer :

A sketch of C, is shown above, as is the finite region R between and . This region is rotated through radians about the x-axis to form a solid of revolution.

b) Find the exact value of the volume of the solid generated.

Answer:


-stationary points: 1+-sqrt2
-rate of change of depth=8/3pi
-integral= 3/8lnu(5+4x^2/3)
-vol of revolution=0.68 (not exact i know) included pi^3 and pi
-binomial expansion=17.6- let x=0.1 and then times by 10

k=6-pi/2
-lambda=-8/5
cos(x)=4/sqrt21
area=12sqrt5


I agree with all this, except I think lambda was -5/4 and Q was (4,8.5,5.5)

You know the the substitution question, did it ask you to turn the U back into X


I think you always have to turn u back into x

I got -5/2 for the lamda

Yup it was -5/2

Thanks how much was it out of tho?


It was 2 marks for part a and 5 marks for part b
I've defo not done well... this paper was rlly hard
Here are my worked solutions to Qs 1 to 4 of the paper. The rest after lunch.

how many marks was part a and b for that question? I think a was 2, but can't remember b.

Made the same mistake


b was 5

do you want to tell us the answer then


It was pi^3/64 + pi/16
lmao. 100% on everything but i might have forgotten to put any +Cs for integration. RIP.

*****ng *******s there goes my a*
Don’t think you have to change the u to x...

For the stationary points, I messed up the quadratic, and for the vector question, i messed up lambda.
How many marks do you think I'll lose given that all the working before it was correct?
Didn’t specify

What did you get as your tangent using pi/2?
