Equation of a straight line is:
y − y1 = m( x − x1 )
y − 11 = 5( x − 3)
y − 11 = 5 x − 15
y = 5 x − 15 + 11
y = 5x − 4

You are given that f(x) = x4 + ax − 6 and that x − 2 is a factor of f(x). Find the value of a.
x – 2 is a factor of f(x) ∴ f(2) = 0
5.
[3]
f(2) = 24 + a × 2 – 6
= 16 + 2a – 6
= 10 + 2a
10 + 2a = 0
∴a=–5
(i) Find the coefficient of x3 in the expansion of (x2 − 3)(x3 + 7x + 1).
(ii) Find the coefficient of x2 in the binomial expansion of (1 + 2x)7.
(x2 − 3)(x3 + 7x + 1)
= x2 ×(x3 + 7x + 1) − 3 × (x3 + 7x + 1)
= x5 + 7x3 + x2 − 3x3 – 21x − 3
= x5 + 4x3 + x2 – 21x − 3
∴the coefficient of x3 is 4

8. Find the range of values of k for which the equation 2x2 + kx + 18 = 0 does not have real roots. [4]
No real roots means the discriminant b2 – 4ac is
negative.
k 2 − 4 × 2 × 18 < 0
k 2 − 144 < 0
k 2 − 122 < 0
(k − 12)(k + 12) < 0

12. (i) Find algebraically the coordinates of the points of intersection of the curve y = 3x2 + 6x + 10
and the line y = 2 − 4x.

(iii) Hence or otherwise, show that the graph of y = 3x + 6x + 10 is always above the x-axis. [2]
Part-ii
Part-i
3x2 + 6x + 10 = 3(x2 +2x +10/3)
y = 3x2 + 6x + 10 and y = 2 − 4x
= 3{(x +1)2 – 1 +10/3}
∴ 3x2 + 6x + 10 = 2 − 4x
= 3{(x +1)2 +7/3}
3x2 + 10x + 8 = 0
= 3(x +1)2 + 7
(3x + 4)(x + 2)=0
x = – 2 or – 4/3
y = 10 or 22/3

3x + 6x + 10 = 3(x +1) + 7
(x +1)2 is always positive and other term is
positive as well
∴the graph of y = 3x2 + 6x + 10 is always above
the x-axis
