READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your name and class 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 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. You are expected to use a graphic calculator. Unsupported answers from a graphic calculator are allowed unless a question specifically states otherwise. Where unsupported answers from a graphic calculator are not allowed in a question, you are required to present the mathematical steps using mathematical notations and not calculator commands. You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers. At the end of the examination, arrange your answers in NUMERICAL ORDER. Place this cover sheet in front and fasten all your work securely together. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.

Three sisters Audrey, Catherine and Gladys went on a shopping spree while on holiday. They bought items for their sister Eliza, who could not go due to her A level examinations. After returning home, they could not recall the prices of the items they had bought, but they had their credit card statements with the total amounts they each had spent. The list of items that each sister had bought and the amount on their statements are summarised in the table below: Type of Item (Price) High heels ($x per pair) Facial Mask ($y per box) Handbags ($z per piece) Credit Card Statement ($) Catherine 5 10 3 1298.20 Audrey 2 7 8 1158.30 Gladys 3 15 5 1837.70 [3] [1]

(i) Find the values of x, y and z. (ii) Hence evaluate the total cost of their gift to Eliza, which consists of 1 pair of high heels, 5 boxes of facial mask and 2 handbags. 2. A sequence is defined by u1 = 1 and u n +1 =
n + 1 u n for n 1 . n2 (i) Write down the values of u 2 , u 3 , u 4 and u 5 .

(ii) Hence make a conjecture for u n in terms of n. Prove your conjecture using mathematical induction. 3. In an East Asia ancient culture, there is a war monument which is formed by placing concentric circular slabs of granite on top of each other. The slabs of granite are of decreasing measurements. (i) The first slab of the monument has diameter 200 cm and the diameter of each subsequent slab is three-quarters the diameter of the previous slab. Show that the total sum of the cross-sectional circular area of the slabs used will be less than 72 000 cm2, no matter how many slabs there are. (ii) The first slab of the monument has thickness 50 cm and each subsequent slab has thickness d cm less than of that for the previous slab. Given that the maximum possible number of slabs is 14, find the largest integer value of d. (iii) Given that d = 3, write down an expression in terms of n for the volume of the nth slab and hence evaluate the total volume of the monument which consist of 14 slabs.
