Professor Vinculum investigated the migration season of the Bulbul bird from their natural wetlands to a warmer climate.

He found that during the migration season their population, P could be modelled by 1350 400(1.25) tP -= + , t ≥ 0 , where t is the number of days since the start of the

migration season.

(a) Find the population of the Bulbul birds,

(i) at the start of the migration season.

(ii) in the wetlands after 5 days. [3]

(b) Calculate the time taken for the population to decrease below 1400. [2]

(c) According to this model, f nd the smallest possible population of Bulbul birds during the migration season. [1]

Tommaso plans to compete in a regional bicycle race after he graduates, however he needs to buy a racing bicycle. He f nds a bicycle that costs 1100 euro (EUR). Tommaso has 950 EURand invests this money in an account that pays 5 % interest per year, compounded monthly.

(a) Determine the amount that he will have in his account after 3 years. Give your answer correct to two decimal places. [3]

The cost of the bicycle, C , can be modelled by C =20x+1100 , where x is the number of years since Tommaso invested his money.

(b) Find the dif erence between the cost of the bicycle and the amount of money in Tommaso’s account after 3 years. Give your answer correct to two decimal places. [3]

After m complete months Tommaso will, for the f rst time, have enough money in his account to buy the bicycle.

Where an answer is incorrect, some marks may be given for a correctmethod, provided this is shown by written working. You are therefore advised to show all working.

On her f rst day in a hospital, Kiri receives u1 milligrams (mg) of a therapeutic drug. The amount of the drug Kiri receives increases by the same amount, d , each day. On the seventh day, she receives 21mg of the drug, and on the eleventh day she receives 29 mg.

(a) Write down an equation, in terms of u1 and d , for the amount of the drug that she receives

(i) on the seventh day;

(ii) on the eleventh day. [2]

(b) Write down the value of d and the value of u1 . [2]

Kiri receives the drug for 30 days.

(c) Calculate the total amount of the drug, in mg, that she receives. [3]

Ted is also in a hospital and on his f rst day he receives a 20 mg antibiotic injection. The amount of the antibiotic Ted receives decreases by 50 % each day. On the second day, Ted receives a 10mg antibiotic injection, on the third day he receives 5mg, and so on.

(d) (i) Find the amount of antibiotic, in mg, that Ted receives on the f fth day.

(ii) The daily amount of antibiotic Ted receives will f rst be less than 0.06 mg on the k th day. Find the value of k .

(iii) Hence f nd the total amount of antibiotic, in mg, that Ted receives during the f rst k days. [9]

The braking distance of a vehicle is def ned as the distance travelled from where the brakes are applied to the point where the vehicle comes to a complete stop.

The speed, s m s- 1, and braking distance, d m, of a truck were recorded. This information is summarized in the following table.

Speed, s m s- 1 0 6 10

Braking distance, d m 0 12 60

This information was used to create Model A, where d is a function of s , s ≥ 0 .

Model A: d (s) = ps2 + qs , where p , q∈

At a speed of 6 m s- 1 , Model A can be represented by the equation 6 p + q = 2 .

(a) (i) Write down a second equation to represent Model A, when the speed is 10m s- 1 .

(ii) Find the values of p and q [4]

(b) Find the coordinates of the vertex of the graph of y = d (s) . [2]

(c) Using the values in the table and your answer to part (b), sketch the graph of y = d (s) for 0 ≤ s ≤ 10 and - 10 ≤ d ≤ 60 , clearly showing the vertex. [3]

(d) Hence, identify why Model A may not be appropriate at lower speeds. [1]

Additional data was used to create Model B, a revised model for the braking distance of a truck.

Model B: d (s) = 0.95 s2 - 3.92 s

(e) Use Model B to calculate an estimate for the braking distance at a speed of 20 m s- 1 . [2]

The actual braking distance at 20 m s- 1 is 320m .

(f) Calculate the percentage error in the estimate in part (e). [2]

(Question 3 continued)

It is found that once a driver realizes the need to stop their vehicle, 1.6 seconds will elapse, on average, before the brakes are engaged. During this reaction time, the vehicle will continue to travel at its original speed.

A truck approaches an intersection with speed s m s- 1 . The driver notices the intersection’s traf c lights are red and they must stop the vehicle within a distance of 330 m.

(g) Using model B and taking reaction time into account, calculate the maximum possible speed of the truck if it is to stop before the intersection. [3]
