Candidates may use any calculator EXCEPT those with the facility for symbolic algebra, differentiation and/or integration. Thus candidates may NOT use calculators such as the Texas Instruments TI 89, TI 92, Casio CFX 9970G, Hewlett Packard HP 48G

Instructions to Candidates In the boxes on the answer book, write the name of the examining body (Edexcel), your centre number, candidate number, the unit title (Pure Mathematics P2), the paper reference (6672), your surname, other name and signature. When a calculator is used, the answer should be given to an appropriate degree of accuracy. Information for Candidates A booklet Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables is provided. Full marks may be obtained for answers to ALL questions. This paper has seven questions. Advice to Candidates You must ensure that your answers to parts of questions are clearly labelled. You must show sufficient working to make your methods clear to the Examiner. Answers without working may gain no credit.

The curve C has equation y = 2e x + 3 x 2 + 2. The point A with coordinates (0, 4) lies on C. Find the equation of the tangent to C at A. (5) The root of the equation f(x) = 0, where f ( x) = x + ln 2 x 4 is to be estimated using the iterative formula x n +1 = 4 ln 2 x n , with x 0 = 2.4. (a) Showing your values of x1, x2, x3,, obtain the value, to 3 decimal places, of the root. (4) (b) By considering the change of sign of f(x) in a suitable interval, justify the accuracy of your answer to part (a). (2)

A population of deer is introduced into a park. The population P at t years after the deer have been introduced is modelled by 2000 a t P= , 4 + at where a is a constant. Given that there are 800 deer in the park after 6 years, (a) calculate, to 4 decimal places, the value of a, (4) (b) use the model to predict the number of years needed for the population of deer to increase from 800 to 1800. (4) (c) With reference to this model, give a reason why the population of deer cannot exceed 2000. (1)
