8 outside the

brackets.
M1: Correct bracket structure for the trapezium rule. Look for “h/2”(first + last y values +
2(attempt at sum of remaining values)). If one value is missing, allow the M as a slip, but M0 if 1st
or last value repeated. Must be y values used. Incorrect/invisible external bracketing may be
recovered by implication.
A1: Correct bracket “h/2”{…} with all 7 y values used, though allow a minor miscopy of a term if it
is clear the correct value is meant. May be implied by the correct answer.
A1: awrt 12.33
(b)
M1: Attempts to integrate. Power to increase by 1 in at least two terms.
A1: Any two terms correct.
A1: Fully correct. No need for constant of integration. Need not be simplified.
(c)
M1: Applies limits of 2.5 and 4 to their answer to (b) to get the area under C2. Limits may be either
way around for this mark. May be implied by awrt 7.72 and allow if scored from a calculator.
M1: Subtracts their area under C2 from the answer to (a). Must be subtracting a positive number
from “12.33”, so if the limits were the wrong way round (or a negative answer was found in error),
the answer must be made positive before subtracting.
A1: for awrt 4.6 following a correct answer to (a).
