Question 10 3 marks

The line has equation $y = 2x - 3$.

(a) Find $y$ when $x = 4$. 1 mark

(b) State the gradient. 1 mark

(c) State the y-intercept. 1 mark

Model Answer

(a) $y = 2(4) - 3 = 5$ [1]

(b) Gradient $= 2$ [1]

(c) y-intercept $= -3$, at $(0, -3)$ [1]

Question 11 4 marks

(a) Find the nth-term rule for $4, 7, 10, 13, \ldots$. 2 marks

(b) Solve $4x - 7 = 2x + 5$. 2 marks

Model Answer

(a) The common difference is 3 [1], so $T_n = 3n + 1$ [1].

(b) $2x = 12$ [1], so $x = 6$ [1].
