Markscheme

* This question is from an exam for a previous syllabus, and may contain minor differences in marking or structure.

evidence of integration      (M1)

eg    f'xdx , 6e2x

correct integration (accept missing +c)      (A1)

eg    12×6e2x , 3e2x+c

substituting initial condition into their integrated expression (must have +c)       M1

eg    3e2×ln4+c=20

 

Note: Award M0 if candidate has substituted into f' or f''.

 

correct application of logab=bloga rule (seen anywhere)      (A1)

eg    2ln4=ln16 , eln16 , ln42

correct application of elna=a rule (seen anywhere)      (A1)

eg    eln16=16 , eln42=42

correct working      (A1)

eg    3×16+c=20 , 3×42+c=20 , c=-28

fx=3e2x-28        A1 N4
