This investigation is about finding numbers that have the same Number Stem. The possible Number Stems are the nine integers from 1 to 9. Here is how to calculate the Number Stem of a number. Step 1 Add the digits of the number to get a total. Step 2 If the total is 9 or less, STOP. Otherwise, add the digits of the total. Step 3 Repeat Step 2. Examples Number 124 Number 893 Step 1 1 + 2 + 4 = 7 Step 1 8 + 9 + 3 = 20 Step 2 STOP Step 2 2 + 0 = 2 Number Stem is 7.

6 0607/62/M/J/17 © UCLES 2017 B MODELLING ELEVATORS (20 marks) You are advised to spend no more than 45 minutes on this part. This task is about the mass an elevator carries and the time it takes to move between floors. EasyUp is a company that makes elevators. For each type of elevator, the company uses two mathematical models. Model 1 The company models the masses of the passengers using the elevator. Model 2 The company models the time it takes the elevator to move between floors. 1 The EasyUp-5 elevator carries a maximum of 5 passengers. (a) For Model 1, the company estimates that • 10 2 of the passengers have a mass of 50 kg • 10 4 of the passengers have a mass of 70 kg • 10 4 of the passengers have a mass of 85 kg. From the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 • 0 and 1 give a mass of 50 kg • 2, 3, 4 and 5 give a mass of 70 kg • 6, 7, 8 and 9 give a mass of 85 kg.

Types of mark M Method marks, awarded for a valid method applied to the problem. A Accuracy mark, awarded for a correct answer or intermediate step correctly obtained. For accuracy marks to be given, the associated Method mark must be 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 in principle independent unless the scheme specifically says otherwise; and similarly where there are several B marks allocated. The notation ‘dep’ is used to indicate that a particular M or B mark is dependent on an earlier mark in the scheme. Abbreviations awrt answers which round to cao correct answer only dep dependent FT follow through after error isw ignore subsequent working nfww not from wrong working oe or equivalent rot rounded or truncated SC Special Case soi seen or implied
