A1 N2
[4 marks]
(i)
A1A1 N2
(ii) METHOD 1
correct working that leads to the correct answer, involving the correct expression for the 19th derivative A2
eg
(accept ) A1 N1
METHOD 2
correct working involving recognizing patterns in coefficients of first three derivatives (may be seen in part (b)(i)) leading to a general rule for 19th coefficient A2
eg
(accept ) A1 N1
[5 marks]
(i) valid approach using product rule (M1)
eg
correct 20th derivatives (must be seen in product rule) (A1)(A1)
eg
A1 N3
(ii) substituting (seen anywhere) (A1)
eg
evidence of one correct value for or (seen anywhere) (A1)
eg
evidence of correct values substituted into A1
