2(a)[2]
–4, –1 [2]
B1 for each correct value
2(b)[4]
Correct graph [4]
B3FT for 7 or 8 correct points or B2FT for 5 or 6 correct points or B1FT for 3 or 4 correct points
2(c)(i)[1]
Ruled tangent at x = 1 [1]
2(c)(ii)[2]
6 to 14 nfww [2]
dep on correct tangent or a close attempt at the tangent at x = 1
M1 for rise/run for their tangent, or close attempt at tangent at any point. Must see correct or implied calculation from a drawn tangent.
2(d)[4]
