Candidates may use any calculator permitted by Pearson regulations. Calculators must not have the facility for algebraic manipulation, differentiation and integration, or have retrievable mathematical formulae stored in them. Instructions ∙ Use black ink or ball-point pen. ∙ If pencil is used for diagrams/sketches/graphs it must be dark (HB or B). ∙ Answer all questions and ensure that your answers to parts of questions are clearly labelled. ∙ Answer the questions in the spaces provided – there may be more space than you need. ∙ You should show sufficient working to make your methods clear. Answers without working may not gain full credit. ∙ Inexact answers should be given to three significant figures unless otherwise stated. Information ∙ A booklet ‘Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables’ is provided. ∙ There are 14 questions in this paper. The total mark is 100. ∙ The marks for each question are shown in brackets – use this as a guide as to how much time to spend on each question. Advice ∙ Read each question carefully before you start to answer it. ∙ Try to answer every question. ∙ Check your answers if you have time at the end. ∙ If you change your mind about an answer, cross it out and put your new answer and any working underneath.
