Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables (Yellow), calculator

Candidates may use any calculator permitted by Pearson regulations.


Calculators must not have the facility for symbolic algebra 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).
• Fill in the boxes at the top of this page with your name, centre number and candidate
number.
• 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.
Answer 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 4 questions in this paper. The total mark for this paper is ‘32’ marks.
• The marks for each question are shown in brackets
– use this as a guide 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.
