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, i.e. 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, are 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 sc - special case

The swimming pool has two identical sides in the shape of a trapezium. All other sides are rectangular.

The length of the pool is 12 m. The width of the pool is 4 m. The depth of the pool is 2.1 m at the deep end and 1.1 m at the shallow end.

Rafa fills the pool up with water from a hosepipe. The surface of the water is to be 10 cm from the top of the pool.

Rafa turns on the hosepipe at 09 00 on Monday and water fills at a rate of 200 ml per second.

When the pool is full, Rafa turns off the tap. At what time will this be?Show your working.

14 Gerry has an ingot of steel that he is going to turn into ball bearings.

The ingot is in the shape of a cuboid and it cost him £50.

The dimensions of the cuboid are 30 cm, by 15 cm by 8 cm to the nearest mm. The ball bearings are spheres of diameter 5 mm to the nearest tenth of a millimetre.

Gerry melts the ingot and recasts the metal without losing any of the steel. He sells all the ball bearings he makes at 10 ball bearings for 1 pence.

Work out the least profit Gerry could make if he sells all of the ball bearings.
