This document appears to be an exam paper for a Cambridge International AS & A Level Mathematics exam. It contains instructions for candidates on how to complete the exam, as well as two multi-part math problems. The first problem asks students to find the equation of a curve given its derivative and that it passes through the point (8,5). The second problem asks students to find the set of values of c for which a given quadratic curve and linear line intersect at two distinct points. The document provides space for students to show their work and solutions to each problem. It also provides information such as the total marks, number of pages, and exam code at the top and bottom.
