READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST Write your name, class and registration number in the spaces at the top of this page and on all the work you hand in. Write in dark blue or black pen. You may use a pencil for any diagrams or graphs. Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid. Answer all questions. If working is needed for any question it must be shown with the answer. Omission of essential working will result in loss of marks. Calculators should be used where appropriate. If the degree of accuracy is not specified in the question, and if the answer is not exact, give the answer to three significant figures. Give answers in degrees to one decimal place. For , use either your calculator value or 3.142, unless the question requires the answer in terms of . At the end of the examination, fasten all your work securely together. The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question. The total number of marks for this paper is 100.

Water flows out at different rates from two taps A and B, when turned on to its fullest. Water flows out from Tap A at x litres per minute and from tap B at 5 litres per minute faster than tap A. A rectangular tank with dimensions of 300 cm by 250 cm by 120 cm is to be filled with water. It takes 5 hours longer to fill the tank with water using tap A alone than by using tap B alone. (a) (b) Find the volume of the tank in litres. Write down an expression, in terms of x, the time taken to fill the tank by using only (i) tap A, (ii) tap B. Form an equation in x and show that it reduces to x 2 + 5 x 150 = 0 . Solve the equation x 2 + 5 x 150 = 0 . [1]
