Write your Centre number, candidate number and name on all the work you hand in. Write in dark blue or black pen on both sides of the paper. You may use a soft pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid. Answer all the questions. Give non-exact numerical answers correct to 3 significant figures, or 1 decimal place in the case of angles in degrees, unless a different level of accuracy is specified in the question. The use of an electronic calculator is expected, where appropriate. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. The total number of marks for this paper is 50. Questions carrying smaller numbers of marks are printed earlier in the paper, and questions carrying larger numbers of marks later in the paper. At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together. This document consists of 3 printed pages and 1 blank page. © UCLES 2006 [Turn over

2 1 Solve the inequality |2x −7| > 3. [3] 2 (i) Prove the identity cos(x + 30◦) + sin(x + 60◦) ≡(√3) cos x. [3] (ii) Hence solve the equation cos(x + 30◦) + sin(x + 60◦) = 1, for 0◦< x < 90◦. [2] 3 The equation of a curve is y = x + 2 cos x. Find the x-coordinates of the stationary points of the curve for 0 ≤x ≤2π, and determine the nature of each of these stationary points. [7] 4 The cubic polynomial ax3 + bx2 −3x −2, where a and b are constants, is denoted by p(x). It is given that (x −1) and (x + 2) are factors of p(x). (i) Find the values of a and b. [5] (ii) When a and b have these values, find the other linear factor of p(x). [2] 5 The equation of a curve is 3x2 + 2xy + y2 = 6. It is given that there are two points on the curve where the tangent is parallel to the x-axis. (i) Show by differentiation that, at these points, y = −3x. [4] (ii) Hence find the coordinates of the two points. [4] 6 (i) By sketching a suitable pair of graphs, show that there is only one value of x that is a root of the equation x = 9e−2x. [2] (ii) Verify, by calculation, that this root lies between 1 and 2. [2] (iii) Show that, if a sequence of values given by the iterative formula xn+1 = 1 2
ln 9 −ln xn converges, then it converges to the root of the equation given in part (i). [2] (iv) Use the iterative formula, with x1 = 1, to calculate the root correct to 2 decimal places. Give the result of each iteration to 4 decimal places. [3] © UCLES 2006 9709/02/M/J/06

3 7 (i) Differentiate ln(2x + 3). [2] (ii) Hence, or otherwise, show that  3 −1 1 2x + 3 dx = ln 3. [3] (iii) Find the quotient and remainder when 4x2 + 8x is divided by 2x + 3. [3] (iv) Hence show that  3 −1 4x2 + 8x 2x + 3 dx = 12 −3 ln 3. [3] © UCLES 2006 9709/02/M/J/06

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS GCE Advanced/Advanced Subsidiary Level MARK SCHEME for the May/June 2006 question paper 9709 MATHEMATICS 9709/02 Paper 2 Maximum raw mark 50 This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were initially instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began. Any substantial changes to the mark scheme that arose from these discussions will be recorded in the published Report on the Examination. All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills demonstrated. Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the Report on the Examination. The minimum marks in these components needed for various grades were previously published with these mark schemes, but are now instead included in the Report on the Examination for this session. • CIE will not enter into discussion or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes. CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2006 question papers for most IGCSE and GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses.

Mark Scheme Notes Marks are of the following three types: M Method mark, awarded for a valid method applied to the problem. Method marks are not lost for numerical errors, algebraic slips or errors in units. However, it is not usually sufficient for a candidate just to indicate an intention of using some method or just to quote a formula; the formula or idea must be applied to the specific problem in hand, e.g. by substituting the relevant quantities into the formula. Correct application of a formula without the formula being quoted obviously earns the M mark and in some cases an M mark can be implied from a correct answer. A Accuracy mark, awarded for a correct answer or intermediate step correctly obtained. Accuracy marks cannot be given unless the associated method mark is earned (or implied). B Mark for a correct result or statement independent of method marks. • When a part of a question has two or more "method" steps, the M marks are generally independent unless the scheme specifically says otherwise; and similarly when there are several B marks allocated. The notation DM or DB (or dep*) is used to indicate that a particular M or B mark is dependent on an earlier M or B (asterisked) mark in the scheme. When two or more steps are run together by the candidate, the earlier marks are implied and full credit is given. • The symbol √ implies that the A or B mark indicated is allowed for work correctly following on from previously incorrect results. Otherwise, A or B marks are given for correct work only. A and B marks are not given for fortuitously "correct" answers or results obtained from incorrect working. • Note: B2 or A2 means that the candidate can earn 2 or 0. B2/1/0 means that the candidate can earn anything from 0 to 2. The marks indicated in the scheme may not be subdivided. If there is genuine doubt whether a candidate has earned a mark, allow the candidate the benefit of the doubt. Unless otherwise indicated, marks once gained cannot subsequently be lost, e.g. wrong working following a correct form of answer is ignored. • Wrong or missing units in an answer should not lead to the loss of a mark unless the scheme specifically indicates otherwise. • For a numerical answer, allow the A or B mark if a value is obtained which is correct to 3 s.f., or which would be correct to 3 s.f. if rounded (1 d.p. in the case of an angle). As stated above, an A or B mark is not given if a correct numerical answer arises fortuitously from incorrect working. For Mechanics questions, allow A or B marks for correct answers which arise from taking g equal to 9.8 or 9.81 instead of 10.

The following abbreviations may be used in a mark scheme or used on the scripts: AEF Any Equivalent Form (of answer is equally acceptable) AG Answer Given on the question paper (so extra checking is needed to ensure that the detailed working leading to the result is valid) BOD Benefit of Doubt (allowed when the validity of a solution may not be absolutely clear) CAO Correct Answer Only (emphasising that no "follow through" from a previous error is allowed) CWO Correct Working Only - often written by a ‘fortuitous' answer ISW Ignore Subsequent Working MR Misread PA Premature Approximation (resulting in basically correct work that is insufficiently accurate) SOS See Other Solution (the candidate makes a better attempt at the same question) SR Special Ruling (detailing the mark to be given for a specific wrong solution, or a case where some standard marking practice is to be varied in the light of a particular circumstance) Penalties MR -1 A penalty of MR -1 is deducted from A or B marks when the data of a question or part question are genuinely misread and the object and difficulty of the question remain unaltered. In this case all A and B marks then become "follow through √" marks. MR is not applied when the candidate misreads his own figures - this is regarded as an error in accuracy. An MR-2 penalty may be applied in particular cases if agreed at the coordination meeting. PA -1 This is deducted from A or B marks in the case of premature approximation. The PA -1 penalty is usually discussed at the meeting.
