Question
A function f is given by f(x)=(2x+2)(5−x2).
The graph of the function g(x)=5x+6x−6 intersects the graph of f.
Expand the expression for f(x).
Find f′(x).
Draw the graph of f for −3⩽x⩽3 and −40⩽y⩽20. Use a scale of 2 cm to represent 1 unit on the x-axis and 1 cm to represent 5 units on the y-axis.
Write down the coordinates of the point of intersection.

(A1)(A1)(ft)(A1)(ft)(A1)
Notes: Award (A1) for correct scale; axes labelled and drawn with a ruler.
Award (A1)(ft) for their correct x-intercepts in approximately correct location.
Award (A1) for correct minimum and maximum points in approximately correct location.
Award (A1) for a smooth continuous curve with approximate correct shape. The curve should be in the given domain.
