The first, third, and seventh terms of an arithmetic sequence with common difference \(d \neq 0\) are the first three terms of a geometric sequence. (a) Show that the common ratio of the geometric sequence is \(2\).

解題
(a) Let the first term of the arithmetic sequence be \(u_1\). The first, third, and seventh terms are \(u_1\), \(u_1 + 2d\), and \(u_1 + 6d\). Since these form a geometric sequence, we have: \(\frac{u_1 + 2d}{u_1} = \frac{u_1 + 6d}{u_1 + 2d}\) which simplifies to \((u_1 + 2d)^2 = u_1(u_1 + 6d)\). Expanding both sides: \(u_1^2 + 4u_1d + 4d^2 = u_1^2 + 6u_1d\). Subtracting \(u_1^2\) and rearranging: \(4d^2 = 2u_1d\). Since \(d \neq 0\), we can divide by \(2d\) to get \(2d = u_1\). The common ratio \(r\) is \(r = \frac{u_1 + 2d}{u_1} = \frac{2d + 2d}{2d} = 2\). (b) Given \(u_1 = 3\), we find the common difference using \(2d = u_1 \implies d = 1.5\). The sum of the first \(10\) terms of the arithmetic sequence is: \(S_{10} = \frac{10}{2} [2u_1 + 9d] = 5 [2(3) + 9(1.5)] = 5 [6 + 13.5] = 5 [19.5] = 97.5\).
評分準則
(a) M1 for setting up the geometric ratio equation: \(\frac{u_1 + 2d}{u_1} = \frac{u_1 + 6d}{u_1 + 2d}\). A1 for simplifying to find the relation between \(u_1\) and \(d\): \(2d = u_1\). AG for substituting back and showing that \(r = 2\). (b) M1 for finding \(d = 1.5\). M1 for substituting into the arithmetic sum formula. A1 for the correct answer 97.5 (or \(\frac{195}{2}\)).

Let \(f(x) = \frac{3x + 1}{x - 2}\) for \(x \neq 2\). (a) Find an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\). (b) Solve the equation \(f^{-1}(x) = f(x)\).
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Let \(y = \frac{3x + 1}{x - 2}\). Interchanging \(x\) and \(y\) and rearranging to make \(y\) the subject: \(x(y - 2) = 3y + 1 \implies xy - 2x = 3y + 1 \implies y(x - 3) = 2x + 1 \implies y = \frac{2x + 1}{x - 3}\). Thus, \(f^{-1}(x) = \frac{2x + 1}{x - 3}\) for \(x \neq 3\). (b) Setting the two expressions equal: \(\frac{2x + 1}{x - 3} = \frac{3x + 1}{x - 2}\). Multiplying both sides: \((2x + 1)(x - 2) = (3x + 1)(x - 3) \implies 2x^2 - 3x - 2 = 3x^2 - 8x - 3 \implies x^2 - 5x - 1 = 0\). Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{29}}{2}\).
評分準則
(a) M1 for attempting to interchange variables and isolate \(y\). M1 for gathering terms: \(y(x - 3) = 2x + 1\). A1 for \(f^{-1}(x) = \frac{2x + 1}{x - 3}\). (b) M1 for setting up and expanding the equation. A1 for simplifying to \(x^2 - 5x - 1 = 0\). A1 for the correct solutions \(x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{29}}{2}\).

Solve the equation \(\sin(2\theta) = \sqrt{3} \cos\theta\) for \(0 \le \theta \le 2\pi\).
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
Using the double-angle identity \(\sin(2\theta) = 2\sin\theta\cos\theta\), we can rewrite the equation as: \(2\sin\theta\cos\theta = \sqrt{3}\cos\theta\). Rearranging gives: \(\cos\theta(2\sin\theta - \sqrt{3}) = 0\). This gives two branches of equations: 1) \(\cos\theta = 0 \implies \theta = \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\) for the given domain. 2) \(\sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \implies \theta = \frac{\pi}{3}, \frac{2\pi}{3}\) for the given domain. The solutions are \(\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{2\pi}{3}, \frac{3\pi}{2}\).

Consider the curve \(y = x e^{-2x}\). (a) Find \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}\). (b) Find the equation of the tangent to the curve at the point where \(x = 1\), giving your answer in the form \(y = mx + c\).
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Using the product rule: \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 1 \cdot e^{-2x} + x \cdot (-2 e^{-2x}) = (1 - 2x)e^{-2x}\). (b) When \(x = 1\), the y-coordinate is \(y = 1 \cdot e^{-2} = e^{-2}\). The gradient of the tangent at \(x = 1\) is \(m = (1 - 2(1))e^{-2} = -e^{-2}\). Using the point-slope form: \(y - e^{-2} = -e^{-2}(x - 1) \implies y - e^{-2} = -e^{-2}x + e^{-2} \implies y = -e^{-2}x + 2e^{-2}\).
評分準則

A discrete random variable \(X\) has the following probability distribution: \begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c} x & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 \\ \hline \mathrm{P}(X=x) & 10k^2 & 3k & 0.4 & 0.2 \end{array} where \(k > 0\) is a constant. (a) Find the value of \(k\). (b) Find the expected value of \(X\), \(\mathrm{E}(X)\).
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Since the sum of all probabilities must equal 1, we have: \(10k^2 + 3k + 0.4 + 0.2 = 1 \implies 10k^2 + 3k - 0.4 = 0\). Multiplying the equation by 10 gives: \(100k^2 + 30k - 4 = 0 \implies 50k^2 + 15k - 2 = 0\). Factorizing the quadratic: \((10k - 1)(5k + 2) = 0\). This yields \(k = 0.1\) or \(k = -0.4\). Since \(k > 0\), we have \(k = 0.1\). (b) Substituting \(k = 0.1\) into the distribution: \(\mathrm{P}(X=1) = 0.1\), \(\mathrm{P}(X=2) = 0.3\), \(\mathrm{P}(X=3) = 0.4\), and \(\mathrm{P}(X=4) = 0.2\). The expectation is: \(\mathrm{E}(X) = \sum x \mathrm{P}(X=x) = 1(0.1) + 2(0.3) + 3(0.4) + 4(0.2) = 0.1 + 0.6 + 1.2 + 0.8 = 2.7\).

Let \(f(x) = \sin(x)\) and \(g(x) = \cos(2x)\) for \(0 \le x \le \frac{\pi}{6}\). (a) Show that the curves \(y = f(x)\) and \(y = g(x)\) intersect at \(x = \frac{\pi}{6}\). (b) Find the area of the region enclosed by the curves \(y = f(x)\), \(y = g(x)\), and the \(y\)-axis.
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Substituting \(x = \frac{\pi}{6}\) into both functions: \(f\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \frac{1}{2}\), \(g\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \cos\left(2 \cdot \frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = \frac{1}{2}\). Since both equal \(\frac{1}{2}\), they intersect at this point. (b) Since \(g(x) \ge f(x)\) on \([0, \frac{\pi}{6}]\), the area is: \(A = \int_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{6}} (\cos(2x) - \sin(x)) \mathrm{d}x = \left[ \frac{1}{2}\sin(2x) + \cos(x) \right]_{0}^{\frac{\pi}{6}}\). Evaluating at the upper limit: \(\frac{1}{2}\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) = \frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) + \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{4}\). Evaluating at the lower limit: \(\frac{1}{2}\sin(0) + \cos(0) = 1\). Subtracting the lower limit value: \(A = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{4} - 1\).

Let \(f(x) = x e^{-2x}\) for \(x \in \mathbb{R}, x \ge 0\).
(a) (i) Find \(f'(x)\). (ii) Hence, find the exact coordinates of the local maximum point on the graph of \(y=f(x)\). [4]
(b) Find the exact \(x\)-coordinate of the point of inflexion on the graph of \(y=f(x)\), and justify why it is a point of inflexion. [4]
(c) Find the exact area of the region bounded by the curve \(y=f(x)\), the \(x\)-axis, and the vertical line \(x = \ln 2\). [5]
(d) The region described in part (c) is rotated through \(2\pi\) radians about the \(x\)-axis to form a solid of revolution. Write down, but do not evaluate, an integral expression for the volume of this solid. [2]
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) (i) Using the product rule: \(f'(x) = 1 \cdot e^{-2x} + x \cdot (-2 e^{-2x}) = (1 - 2x)e^{-2x}\)
(ii) For a local maximum, set \(f'(x) = 0\): \((1 - 2x)e^{-2x} = 0 \implies 1 - 2x = 0 \implies x = \frac{1}{2}\) Since \(x = \frac{1}{2}\), the corresponding \(y\)-coordinate is: \(f\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) = \frac{1}{2} e^{-2(1/2)} = \frac{1}{2e}\) Thus, the local maximum point is \(\left(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2e}\right)\).
(b) To find the point of inflexion, find \(f''(x)\) using the product rule: \(f''(x) = -2e^{-2x} + (1-2x)(-2e^{-2x}) = (-2 - 2 + 4x)e^{-2x} = 4(x-1)e^{-2x}\) Set \(f''(x) = 0\): \(4(x-1)e^{-2x} = 0 \implies x = 1\) Justification: For \(x < 1\), \(f''(x) < 0\) (the curve is concave down). For \(x > 1\), \(f''(x) > 0\) (the curve is concave up). Since the second derivative changes sign at \(x = 1\), there is a point of inflexion at \(x = 1\).
(c) The area \(A\) is given by: \(A = \int_{0}^{\ln 2} x e^{-2x} \, dx\) Using integration by parts, let \(u = x \implies du = dx\) and \(dv = e^{-2x}\,dx \implies v = -\frac{1}{2}e^{-2x}\): \(\int x e^{-2x} \, dx = -\frac{1}{2}x e^{-2x} - \int -\frac{1}{2}e^{-2x} \, dx = -\frac{1}{2}x e^{-2x} - \frac{1}{4}e^{-2x}\) Evaluating this from \(0\) to \(ln 2\): \(A = \left[ -\frac{1}{2}x e^{-2x} - \frac{1}{4}e^{-2x} \right]_{0}^{\ln 2}\) \(A = \left( -\frac{1}{2}(\ln 2)e^{-2\ln 2} - \frac{1}{4}e^{-2\ln 2} \right) - \left( 0 - \frac{1}{4}e^{0} \right)\) Since \(e^{-2\ln 2} = (e^{\ln 2})^{-2} = 2^{-2} = \frac{1}{4}\): \(A = \left( -\frac{\ln 2}{8} - \frac{1}{16} \right) + \frac{1}{4}\) \(A = \frac{-2\ln 2 - 1 + 4}{16} = \frac{3 - 2\ln 2}{16}\)
(d) The volume \(V\) of the solid of revolution is: \(V = \pi \int_{0}^{\ln 2} [f(x)]^2 \, dx = \pi \int_{0}^{\ln 2} x^2 e^{-4x} \, dx\)

Two lines \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) are defined by the following vector equations:
(a) Show that \(L_1\) and \(L_2\) intersect, and find the coordinates of their point of intersection, \(P\). [5]
(b) Find the angle \( \theta \) between the lines \(L_1\) and \(L_2\). [4]
(c) Let \(A\) be the point on \(L_1\) corresponding to \( \lambda = 4 \). (i) Find the coordinates of \(A\). (ii) Find the shortest distance from \(A\) to the line \(L_2\). [6]
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) To show the lines intersect, we equate the vector equations component-by-component: 1) \(-1 + \lambda = 1 \implies \lambda = 2\) 2) \(\lambda = \mu \implies \mu = 2\) 3) \(3 = 1 + \mu\) Substituting \(\mu = 2\) into the third equation yields \(3 = 1 + 2 = 3\), which is consistent. Therefore, the lines intersect. The point of intersection \(P\) is found by substituting \(\lambda = 2\) into \(L_1\): \(P = (-1+2, 2, 3) = (1, 2, 3)\).
(b) The direction vectors are \(\mathbf{d}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 1 \\ 1 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}\) and \(\mathbf{d}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}\). The angle \(\theta\) between them satisfies: \(\cos \theta = \frac{\mathbf{d}_1 \cdot \mathbf{d}_2}{|\mathbf{d}_1| |\mathbf{d}_2|}\) \(\mathbf{d}_1 \cdot \mathbf{d}_2 = (1)(0) + (1)(1) + (0)(1) = 1\) \(|\mathbf{d}_1| = \sqrt{1^2 + 1^2 + 0^2} = \sqrt{2}\) \(|\mathbf{d}_2| = \sqrt{0^2 + 1^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{2}\) \(\cos \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}} = \frac{1}{2}\) Since the angle between lines is acute, \(\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}\) (or \(60^\circ\)).
(c) (i) At \(\lambda = 4\), point \(A\) has coordinates: \(A = (-1+4, 4, 3) = (3, 4, 3)\).
(ii) Method 1 (Geometric): The point of intersection is \(P(1, 2, 3)\). The vector \(\vec{PA}\) is: \(\vec{PA} = \mathbf{a} - \mathbf{p} = \begin{pmatrix} 3-1 \\ 4-2 \\ 3-3 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 2 \\ 0 \end{pmatrix}\) The length of \(\vec{PA}\) is: \(|\vec{PA}| = \sqrt{2^2 + 2^2 + 0^2} = \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2}\) Since \(\theta = \frac{\pi}{3}\) is the angle between \(L_1\) and \(L_2\), the shortest distance \(d\) from \(A\) to \(L_2\) is: \(d = |\vec{PA}| \sin \theta = 2\sqrt{2} \sin \left(\frac{\pi}{3}\right) = 2\sqrt{2} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \sqrt{6}\).
Method 2 (Vector projection): Let \(Q\) be the foot of the perpendicular from \(A\) to \(L_2\). Then \(Q\) has coordinates \((1, \mu, 1+\mu)\). The vector \(\vec{AQ} = \begin{pmatrix} 1-3 \\ \mu-4 \\ 1+\mu-3 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} -2 \\ \mu-4 \\ \mu-2 \end{pmatrix}\). For \(\vec{AQ}\) to be perpendicular to the direction of \(L_2\), \(\mathbf{d}_2\): \(\vec{AQ} \cdot \mathbf{d}_2 = 0 \implies 0(-2) + 1(\mu-4) + 1(\mu-2) = 0\) \(2\mu - 6 = 0 \implies \mu = 3\). Then \(\vec{AQ} = \begin{pmatrix} -2 \\ -1 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix}\). Its magnitude is \(|\vec{AQ}| = \sqrt{(-2)^2 + (-1)^2 + 1^2} = \sqrt{6}\).

解題
(a) Let \( S = 1 + \omega + \omega^2 + \omega^3 + \omega^4 \). This is a finite geometric series with first term \( 1 \) and common ratio \( \omega \neq 1 \). Using the sum formula: \( S = \frac{\omega^5 - 1}{\omega - 1} \) Since \( \omega = e^{i \frac{2\pi}{5}} \), we have: \( \omega^5 = \left( e^{i \frac{2\pi}{5}} \right)^5 = e^{i 2\pi} = 1 \) Therefore, \( S = \frac{1 - 1}{\omega - 1} = 0 \).
(b) By Euler's formula, \( \omega^k = \cos\left(\frac{2k\pi}{5}\right) + i \sin\left(\frac{2k\pi}{5}\right) \). Since \( 1 + \omega + \omega^2 + \omega^3 + \omega^4 = 0 \), the real part of the sum must also be equal to zero: \( 1 + \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{6\pi}{5}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{8\pi}{5}\right) = 0 \) Using the cosine identity \( \cos(2\pi - \theta) = \cos \theta \): \( \cos\left(\frac{8\pi}{5}\right) = \cos\left(2\pi - \frac{2\pi}{5}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) \) \( \cos\left(\frac{6\pi}{5}\right) = \cos\left(2\pi - \frac{4\pi}{5}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) \) Substituting these back into the equation yields: \( 1 + 2\cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) + 2\cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) = 0 \) \( 2\left( \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) \right) = -1 \) \( \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) + \cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) = -\frac{1}{2} \).
(c) Let \( x = \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) \). Using the double-angle identity for cosine: \( \cos\left(\frac{4\pi}{5}\right) = \cos\left(2 \cdot \frac{2\pi}{5}\right) = 2\cos^2\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) - 1 = 2x^2 - 1 \) Substituting this into the result from part (b): \( x + (2x^2 - 1) = -\frac{1}{2} \) Multiply by 2 to clear fractions: \( 4x^2 + 2x - 2 = -1 \implies 4x^2 + 2x - 1 = 0 \) Solving this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula: \( x = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{2^2 - 4(4)(-1)}}{2(4)} = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{20}}{8} = \frac{-2 \pm 2\sqrt{5}}{8} = \frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{5}}{4} \) Since \( \frac{2\pi}{5} \) is in the first quadrant (i.e. \( 0 < \frac{2\pi}{5} < \frac{\pi}{2} \)), we must have \( \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) > 0 \). Since \( \sqrt{5} > 1 \), the positive solution is selected: \( \cos\left(\frac{2\pi}{5}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{5} - 1}{4} \).

Arthur invests $5000 in an account that pays a nominal annual interest rate of \(4.2\%\) compounded monthly. At the same time, Beatrice invests $5500 in an account that depreciates at a rate of \(1.5\%\) per year.
Find the minimum number of complete years, \(n\), it takes for Arthur's investment to be worth more than Beatrice's investment.
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
Let \(t\) be the time in years.
Arthur's investment value after \(t\) years is given by: \(A(t) = 5000 \left(1 + \frac{0.042}{12}\right)^{12t} = 5000 (1.0035)^{12t}\)
Beatrice's investment value after \(t\) years is given by: \(B(t) = 5500 (1 - 0.015)^t = 5500 (0.985)^t\)
We want to find the minimum integer \(n\) such that \(A(n) > B(n)\).
Using a GDC to find the intersection of \(y = 5000 (1.0035)^{12t}\) and \(y = 5500 (0.985)^t\): \(5000 (1.0035)^{12t} = 5500 (0.985)^t\)
Taking the natural logarithm of both sides: \(\ln(5000) + 12t \ln(1.0035) = \ln(5500) + t \ln(0.985)\) \(t \left(12 \ln(1.0035) - \ln(0.985)\right) = \ln(1.1)\) \(t \approx 1.67\) years.
Since \(n\) must be an integer representing complete years: For \(n = 1\): \(A(1) = 5000 (1.0035)^{12} \approx \$5214.09\) \(B(1) = 5500 (0.985)^1 = \$5417.50\) Here, \(A(1) < B(1)\).
Thus, the minimum number of complete years is \(2\).

The temperature, \(T\) in \(^\circ\text{C}\), of a room over a 24-hour period is modeled by the function \(T(t) = a \cos(b(t - c)) + d\), where \(t\) is the time in hours, \(0 \le t \le 24\).
The maximum temperature is \(26^\circ\text{C}\) and occurs at \(14:00\) (\(t = 14\)). The minimum temperature is \(16^\circ\text{C}\).
(a) Find the values of \(a\), \(b\), \(c\), and \(d\), where \(a > 0\), \(b > 0\), and \(0 \le c \le 24\). (b) Find the total amount of time, in hours, during the 24-hour period for which the temperature is above \(23^\circ\text{C}\).
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) The amplitude \(a\) is: \(a = \frac{\text{max} - \text{min}}{2} = \frac{26 - 16}{2} = 5\)
The vertical shift \(d\) is: \(d = \frac{\text{max} + \text{min}}{2} = \frac{26 + 16}{2} = 21\)
The period is 24 hours, so: \(b = \frac{2\pi}{\text{Period}} = \frac{2\pi}{24} = \frac{\pi}{12}\)
Since the maximum occurs at \(t = 14\), we can choose the horizontal shift \(c = 14\). So the function is \(T(t) = 5 \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{12}(t - 14)\right) + 21\).
(b) We want to find the interval where \(T(t) > 23\): \(5 \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{12}(t - 14)\right) + 21 > 23\) \(\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{12}(t - 14)\right) > 0.4\)
Using a GDC to solve \(T(t) = 23\) on the interval \(0 \le t \le 24\), we find the intersection points: \(t_1 \approx 9.572\) \(t_2 \approx 18.428\)
The temperature is above \(23^\circ\text{C}\) between these two times. Total duration = \(18.428 - 9.572 = 8.856\) hours.

(a) The total surface area of a closed rectangular box with a square base is: \(A = 2x^2 + 4xh = 400\)
Expressing \(h\) in terms of \(x\): \(4xh = 400 - 2x^2\) \(h = \frac{400 - 2x^2}{4x} = \frac{100}{x} - \frac{x}{2}\)

A drone flies from point A on a bearing of \(060^\circ\) for a distance of \(8\text{ km}\) to point B. It then changes direction and flies on a bearing of \(150^\circ\) for a distance of \(12\text{ km}\) to point C.
(a) Find the distance from point A to point C. (b) Find the bearing of point C from point A.
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Let us determine the angle \(\angle ABC\). The bearing from A to B is \(060^\circ\). If we draw a North-South line through B, the angle between the South-pointing ray and the line segment BA is \(60^\circ\) (alternate interior angles). The bearing from B to C is \(150^\circ\), which is \(30^\circ\) East of South. Therefore, the angle \(\angle ABC = 60^\circ + 30^\circ = 90^\circ\).
Since triangle ABC is a right-angled triangle at B: \(AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2 = 8^2 + 12^2 = 64 + 144 = 208\) \(AC = \sqrt{208} \approx 14.4222\text{ km}\)
To 3 significant figures, the distance is \(14.4\text{ km}\).
The bearing of B from A is \(060^\circ\). Since the path from B to C moves clockwise from the direction of AB, the bearing of C from A is: \(\text{Bearing} = 60^\circ + 56.31^\circ = 116.31^\circ\)
To 3 significant figures, the bearing is \(116^\circ\).

The weights of chocolate bars produced by a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 150 grams and a standard deviation of 3.5 grams. (a) Find the probability that a randomly chosen chocolate bar weighs less than 145 grams. [3] (b) A sample of 10 chocolate bars is chosen at random. Find the probability that at least 2 of these bars weigh less than 145 grams. [4] (c) Chocolate bars weighing more than \(k\) grams are classified as 'premium'. Given that 15% of the chocolate bars are classified as premium, find the value of \(k\). [3] (d) A customer buys a pack of 5 premium chocolate bars. Find the probability that a randomly selected premium chocolate bar from this pack weighs more than 155 grams. [5]
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
(a) Let \(X\) be the weight of a chocolate bar. We have \(X \sim N(150, 3.5^2)\). Using a GDC to find \(P(X < 145)\): \(z = \frac{145-150}{3.5} = -1.42857\). Thus, \(P(X < 145) \approx 0.0765637\). To 3 significant figures, this is 0.0766. (b) Let \(Y\) be the number of chocolate bars weighing less than 145 grams in a sample of 10. Then \(Y \sim B(10, 0.0765637)\). We need to find \(P(Y \ge 2) = 1 - P(Y \le 1)\). Using the binomial cumulative distribution on a GDC: \(P(Y \le 1) \approx 0.824490\). Therefore, \(P(Y \ge 2) = 1 - 0.824490 = 0.175510 \approx 0.176\). (c) We are given \(P(X > k) = 0.15\), which is equivalent to \(P(X \le k) = 0.85\). Using the inverse normal function on a GDC: \(k \approx 153.6275\). To 3 significant figures, \(k = 154\). (d) We want to find the probability that a premium chocolate bar weighs more than 155 grams. This is a conditional probability: \(P(X > 155 \mid X > k)\). Since \(155 > 153.6275\), the intersection \(P(X > 155 \cap X > 153.6275) = P(X > 155)\). We calculate \(P(X > 155)\) using a GDC: \(P(X > 155) \approx 0.0765637\). Then, \(P(X > 155 \mid X > k) = \frac{P(X > 155)}{P(X > k)} = \frac{0.0765637}{0.15} \approx 0.510425\). To 3 significant figures, the probability is 0.510.

(a) The volume of a cylinder is given by \(V = \pi r^2 h = 500\), which gives \(h = \frac{500}{\pi r^2}\). The total surface area of a closed cylinder is \(A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h\). Substituting \(h\) into the surface area equation: \(A = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r \left(\frac{500}{\pi r^2}\right) = 2\pi r^2 + \frac{1000}{r}\). (b) To find the minimum surface area, we differentiate \(A\) with respect to \(r\): \(\frac{dA}{dr} = 4\pi r - \frac{1000}{r^2}\). Setting \(\frac{dA}{dr} = 0\) gives \(4\pi r^3 = 1000 \implies r^3 = \frac{250}{\pi}\). Thus, \(r = \left(\frac{250}{\pi}\right)^{1/3} \approx 4.30127\text{ cm}\). The minimum surface area is \(A(4.30127) = 2\pi (4.30127)^2 + \frac{1000}{4.30127} \approx 116.24 + 232.49 = 348.73\text{ cm}^2\). To 3 significant figures, \(r = 4.30\text{ cm}\) and \(A = 349\text{ cm}^2\). (c) (i) The cost is given by the sum of the top/bottom cost and the curved side cost: \(C = 0.05(2\pi r^2) + 0.03\left(\frac{1000}{r}\right) = 0.10\pi r^2 + \frac{30}{r}\). (ii) To minimize cost, we differentiate \(C\) with respect to \(r\): \(\frac{dC}{dr} = 0.20\pi r - \frac{30}{r^2}\). Setting \(\frac{dC}{dr} = 0\) gives \(0.20\pi r^3 = 30 \implies r^3 = \frac{150}{\pi}\). Thus, \(r = \left(\frac{150}{\pi}\right)^{1/3} \approx 3.6278\text{ cm}\). The minimum cost is \(C(3.6278) = 0.10\pi (3.6278)^2 + \frac{30}{3.6278} \approx 4.135 + 8.269 = 12.404\) dollars. To 3 significant figures, \(r = 3.63\text{ cm}\) and the minimum cost is $12.40. (d) Since the local minimum of the cost function occurs at \(r \approx 3.63\text{ cm}\) (which is within the interval \([3, 6]\)), the cost function decreases on \([3, 3.63]\) and increases on \([3.63, 6]\). The maximum cost must therefore occur at one of the boundaries. We check the boundary values: At \(r = 3\): \(C(3) = 0.10\pi(3)^2 + \frac{30}{3} = 0.9\pi + 10 \approx 12.827\) dollars. At \(r = 6\): \(C(6) = 0.10\pi(6)^2 + \frac{30}{6} = 3.6\pi + 5 \approx 16.310\) dollars. Since \(16.310 > 12.827\), the maximum possible cost is $16.31 (occurring when \(r = 6\)).

(a) The midline of the wave is \(d = \frac{\text{Max} + \text{Min}}{2} = \frac{12 + 4}{2} = 8\). The amplitude of the wave is \(a = \frac{\text{Max} - \text{Min}}{2} = \frac{12 - 4}{2} = 4\). The time between high tide and low tide is 6 hours, which represents half of the full cycle. Thus, the period of the function is \(2 \times 6 = 12\) hours. This gives \(b = \frac{2\pi}{\text{Period}} = \frac{2\pi}{12} = \frac{\pi}{6}\). Since high tide (the maximum) occurs at \(t = 3\), the cosine function is shifted to the right by 3 units, so \(c = 3\). Thus, \(H(t) = 4 \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{6}(t - 3)\right) + 8\). (b) Maxima occur at intervals of 12 hours starting at \(t = 3\). Within the domain \([0, 24]\), these occur at \(t = 3\) and \(t = 15\). The coordinates of the local maxima are \((3, 12)\) and \((15, 12)\). Minima occur at intervals of 12 hours starting at \(t = 9\). Within the domain \([0, 24]\), these occur at \(t = 9\) and \(t = 21\). The coordinates of the local minima are \((9, 4)\) and \((21, 4)\). (c) We solve the inequality \(H(t) \ge 9.5\) for \(0 \le t \le 24\). We first find the intersection points by solving \(4 \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{6}(t - 3)\right) + 8 = 9.5\). Using a GDC to find the solutions in the domain \([0, 24]\): \(t_1 \approx 0.734\) hours, \(t_2 \approx 5.266\) hours, \(t_3 \approx 12.734\) hours, \(t_4 \approx 17.266\) hours. The boat can enter safely when \(t \in [0.734, 5.266]\) and \(t \in [12.734, 17.266]\). The duration of the first interval is \(5.266 - 0.734 = 4.532\) hours. The duration of the second interval is \(17.266 - 12.734 = 4.532\) hours. Total safe time \(= 4.532 + 4.532 = 9.064\) hours. To 3 significant figures, this is 9.06 hours. (d) To find the rate of change of the height at 12:00, we evaluate the derivative \(H'(t)\) at \(t = 12\). Differentiating \(H(t)\): \(H'(t) = -4 \left(\frac{\pi}{6}\right) \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{6}(t - 3)\right) = -\frac{2\pi}{3} \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{6}(t - 3)\right)\). At \(t = 12\): \(H'(12) = -\frac{2\text{\pi}}{3} \sin\left(\frac{9\pi}{6}\right) = -\frac{2\text{\pi}}{3} \sin\left(\frac{3\pi}{2}\right) = -\frac{2\pi}{3}(-1) = \frac{2\pi}{3} \approx 2.09\text{ meters per hour}\).
