Pergunta 1 Relatório
If \(f(x) = 6x^{3} + 13x^{2} + 2x - 5\) and \(f(-1) = 0\), find the factors of f(x).
Since \(f(-1) = 0\), \((x + 1)\) is a factor of \(f(x) = 6x^3 + 13x^2 + 2x - 5\).
Divide \(f(x)\) by \((x + 1)\):
\[6x^3 + 13x^2 + 2x - 5 = (x + 1)(6x^2 + 7x - 5).\]
Now factor the quadratic \(6x^2 + 7x - 5\). We need two numbers multiplying to \(6\times(-5) = -30\) and adding to \(7\): these are \(10\) and \(-3\):
\[6x^2 + 10x - 3x - 5 = 2x(3x + 5) - 1(3x + 5) = (3x + 5)(2x - 1).\]
Therefore
\[f(x) = (x + 1)(2x - 1)(3x + 5).\]

(a) \(m \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} + n \begin{pmatrix} -1 \\ 2 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 5 \\ -4 \end{pmatrix}\) where m and n are scalars. Find the value of (m + n).
(b) A(-1, 3), B(2, -1) and C(5, 3) are the vertices of \(\Delta\) ABC.
(i) Express in column notation, the unit vectors parallel to AB and AC.

The table shows the frequency distribution of marks scored by some candidates in an examination.
| Marks | 0-9 | 10-19 | 20-29 | 30-39 | 40-49 | 50-59 | 60-69 | 70-79 | 80-89 | 90-99 |
| Freq | 2 | 5 | 8 | 18 | 20 | 15 | 5 | 4 | 2 | 1 |
(a) Draw the cumulative frequency curve of the distribution.
(b) Use your graph to estimate the :
(i) semi-interquartile range of the distribution; (ii) percentage of candidates who passed with distinction if the least mark for distinction was 72.
(a) Cumulative frequency table
| Marks | Frequency | Upper class boundary | Cumulative frequency |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–9 | 2 | 9.5 | 2 |
| 10–19 | 5 | 19.5 | 7 |
| 20–29 | 8 | 29.5 | 15 |
| 30–39 | 18 | 39.5 | 33 |

| 80–89 | 2 | 89.5 | 79 |
| 90–99 | 1 | 99.5 | 80 |
The total number of candidates is \(N=80\). Plot cumulative frequency against the upper class boundaries and draw a smooth increasing ogive.
(b)(i) Semi-interquartile range
\[Q_1\text{ is the }\frac{N}{4}=\frac{80}{4}=20\text{th value.}\]
From the ogive, \(Q_1\approx 32.5\).
\[Q_3\text{ is the }\frac{3N}{4}=\frac{3(80)}{4}=60\text{th value.}\]
From the ogive, \(Q_3\approx 53.0\).
\[\text{Semi-interquartile range}=\frac{Q_3-Q_1}{2}=\frac{53.0-32.5}{2}=\boxed{10.25\text{ marks}}\]
(b)(ii) Percentage passing with distinction
From the ogive, the cumulative frequency at a mark of \(72\) is approximately \(74\).
\[\text{Number scoring at least }72=80-74=6\]
\[\text{Percentage with distinction}=\frac{6}{80}\times100\%=\boxed{7.5\%}\]

(a) If \(A = \begin{pmatrix} -2 & 5 \\ 4 & 3 \end{pmatrix}\) and \(B = \begin{pmatrix} 3 & 1 \\ 2 & 3 \end{pmatrix}\), find the values of x and y such that \(BA = 2\begin{pmatrix} 3 & 7 \\ -2 & x \end{pmatrix} + \begin{pmatrix} y & 4 \\ 12 & -3 \end{pmatrix}\).
(b) Two functions, f and g are defined by \(f : x \to \frac{1}{2}x + 1\) and \(g : x \to \frac{5x - 1}{3}\). Find :
(i) \(g^{-1}\) ; (ii) \(g^{-1} \circ f\).
(a) Compute \(BA\):
\[BA=\begin{pmatrix}3&1\\2&3\end{pmatrix}\begin{pmatrix}-2&5\\4&3\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}-6+4&15+3\\-4+12&10+9\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}-2&18\\8&19\end{pmatrix}\]
Now the right-hand side:

(b)(i) Let \(y=\dfrac{5x-1}{3}\). Then \(3y=5x-1\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{3y+1}{5}\), so
\[g^{-1}(x)=\frac{3x+1}{5}\]
(ii) \(g^{-1}\circ f(x)=g^{-1}\!\left(\tfrac12 x+1\right)=\dfrac{3\left(\tfrac12 x+1\right)+1}{5}=\dfrac{\tfrac32 x+4}{5}=\dfrac{3x+8}{10}\)

(a) Find the equation of the tangent to curve \(\frac{x^{2}}{4} + y^{2} = 1\) at point \(1, \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\).
(b) Express \(\frac{3x + 2}{x^{2} + x - 2}\) in partial fractions.
(a) Differentiate \(\dfrac{x^2}{4}+y^2=1\) implicitly:
\[\frac{2x}{4}+2y\frac{dy}{dx}=0\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=-\frac{x}{4y}\]
At \(\left(1,\tfrac{\sqrt3}{2}\right)\): \(\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-\dfrac{1}{4\cdot\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}=-\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt3}=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{6}\).
Tangent: \(y-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{6}(x-1)\). Multiplying through by 6 and simplifying:
\[\sqrt3\,x+6y=4\sqrt3\quad\text{or}\quad x+2\sqrt3\,y=4\]
(b) Factorise the denominator: \(x^2+x-2=(x+2)(x-1)\). Write
\[\frac{3x+2}{(x+2)(x-1)}=\frac{A}{x+2}+\frac{B}{x-1}\Rightarrow 3x+2=A(x-1)+B(x+2)\]
Put \(x=1\): \(5=3B\Rightarrow B=\tfrac53\). Put \(x=-2\): \(-4=-3A\Rightarrow A=\tfrac43\).

If \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are the roots of the equation \(2x^{2} - 7x + 4 = 0\), find the equation whose roots are \(\frac{\alpha}{\beta}\) and \(\frac{\beta}{\alpha}\).

\[\alpha + \beta = \frac{7}{2},\qquad \alpha\beta = \frac{4}{2} = 2.\]
Sum of the new roots \(\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta} + \dfrac{\beta}{\alpha} = \dfrac{\alpha^2 + \beta^2}{\alpha\beta}\). Using \(\alpha^2 + \beta^2 = (\alpha+\beta)^2 - 2\alpha\beta\):

Product of the new roots \(\dfrac{\alpha}{\beta}\cdot\dfrac{\beta}{\alpha} = 1\).
The required equation is \(x^2 - (\text{sum})x + (\text{product}) = 0\):

A particle of mass 400g is moving under the action of two forces \(F_{1} = (35N, 210°), F_{2} = (35\sqrt{3} N, 300°)\) and a resistance of 40N. Find the magnitude of the
(a) resultant of \(F_{1}\) and \(F_{2}\).
(b) resultant force acting on the particle.
Resolve each force into components \((F\cos\theta,\ F\sin\theta)\).
\(F_{1}=(35,210^{\circ})\): \(\cos210^{\circ}=-\frac{\sqrt3}{2},\ \sin210^{\circ}=-\frac12\), so \(F_{1}=\left(-\tfrac{35\sqrt3}{2},\,-\tfrac{35}{2}\right)\approx(-30.31,\,-17.5)\).
\(F_{2}=(35\sqrt3,300^{\circ})\): \(\cos300^{\circ}=\frac12,\ \sin300^{\circ}=-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}\), so \(F_{2}=\left(\tfrac{35\sqrt3}{2},\,-\tfrac{35\cdot3}{2}\right)\approx(30.31,\,-52.5)\).
(a) Resultant of \(F_{1}\) and \(F_{2}\):
\[R=\big(-30.31+30.31,\ -17.5-52.5\big)=(0,\,-70)\]
Magnitude \(=\sqrt{0^{2}+(-70)^{2}}=70\text{N}\), directed vertically downward (along \(270^{\circ}\)).
(b) The 40N resistance opposes the motion, i.e. it acts opposite to this 70N resultant. The net (resultant) force acting on the particle is therefore
\[70-40=30\text{N}\]

A tyre manufacturing company researched into the life span of one type of their motorcycle tyres. The results were as follows :
| Distance (100km) |
10-19 | 20-29 | 30-39 | 40-49 | 50-59 | 60-69 |
| Number of tyres | 30 | 69 | 93 | 57 | 36 | 15 |
(a) Draw a histogram for the distribution.
(b) Use the histogram to estimate the mode.
(a) Histogram
Since all the class intervals have the same width, namely 10 (in units of 100 km), the bar heights are proportional to the frequencies. Use continuous class boundaries as follows:
| Distance (100 km) | Class boundaries | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| 10–19 | 9.5–19.5 | 30 |
| 20–29 | 19.5–29.5 | 69 |
| 30–39 | 29.5–39.5 | 93 |
| 40–49 | 39.5–49.5 | 57 |
| 50–59 | 49.5–59.5 | 36 |
| 60–69 | 59.5–69.5 | 15 |
(b) Estimate of the mode
The modal class is \(30\text{–}39\), with boundaries \(29.5\text{–}39.5\). From the intersection of the diagonals drawn in the modal rectangle on the histogram, the modal value is approximately \(33.5\).
Equivalently,
\[\text{Mode}=29.5+\frac{93-69}{(93-69)+(93-57)}\times 10\]
\[=29.5+\frac{24}{60}\times10=\boxed{33.5}\]
Thus, the estimated modal tyre life span is \(\boxed{33.5\times100=3350\text{ km}}\).
