  • 2(a)(i)[2]

    1, –0.5 oe [2]

    B1 for each

  • 2(a)(ii)[4]

    Correct curve [4]

    B3FT for 6 or 7 correct plots or B2FT for 4 or 5 correct plots or B1FT for 2 or 3 correct plots

  • 2(b)[3]

    y = 2.5 − 2x ruled 1.3 to 1.4 [4]

    B2 B1 for y = k − 2 x or y = px + 2.5 ruled (p ≠ 0) or for [y =] 2.5 − 2x oe identified B1

  • 2(c)[2]

    –1 y = –1 [2]

    B1 B1 FT their k (must be negative)
