General Marking Guidance

• All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the first candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the last.

• Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must be rewarded for what they have shown they can do rather than penalised for omissions.

• All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded. Examiners should always award full marks if deserved, ie if the answer matches the mark scheme. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the candidate’s response is not worthy of credit according to the mark scheme.

• Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by which marks will be awarded and exemplification may be limited.

• Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has replaced it with an alternative response.

• Mark schemes will indicate within the table where, and which strands of, QWC is being assessed. The strands are as follows:

i) ensure that text is legible and that spelling, punctuation and grammar are accurate so that meaning is clear. Comprehension and meaning is clear by using correct notation and labelling conventions.

ii) select and use a form and style of writing appropriate to purpose and to complex subject matter. Reasoning, explanation or argument is correct and appropriately structured to convey mathematical reasoning.

iii) organise information clearly and coherently, using specialist vocabulary when appropriate. The mathematical methods and processes used are coherently and clearly organised and the appropriate mathematical vocabulary used.

Guidance on the use of codes within this mark scheme M1 – method mark A1 – accuracy mark B1 – working mark C1 – communication mark QWC – quality of written communication oe – or equivalent cao – correct answer only ft – follow through

AB is a straight line.

Pinkal is trying to find the value of the angle marked x

This is what she does.

y = 38° because the angles next to each other on a straight line add up to 160°z = 52° because y + z comes to 90°

x = 318 because angles around a point add up to 360°

Pinkal has made some mistakes.

14 There are some beads in a bag. The beads are either green, blue or yellow.

A bead is selected at random from the bag.

is green.

Work out the smallest number of beads there could be in the bag.

16 Greg thinks that he has a biased dice. He throws the dice 200 times and records the score on the dice each time.

Information about the scores on the dice is shown in the table.

Score on the dice 1 2 3 4 5 6

Frequency 23 37 33 35 20 52

(a) Is the dice biased? You must show clearly how you obtained your answer.(2)

Here is the graph of y = f(x) = x2 − 4x + 7 for values of x from −2 to 4

(a) On the grid draw the graph of y = f(x+1) for values of x from −2 to 3(2)

The algebraic equation of another graph is y = g(x) = x2 − 3

y = f(x) can be mapped onto y = g(x) by a transformation.

* (b) Describe fully this transformation. You must show clearly how you obtained your answer.
