6. A boy saves some money over a period of 60 weeks. He saves 10 p in week 1 , 15 p in week \(2,20 \mathrm { p }\) in week 3 and so on until week 60 . His weekly savings form an arithmetic sequence.

1. Find how much he saves in week 15
2. Calculate the total amount he saves over the 60 week period. The boy's sister also saves some money each week over a period of \(m\) weeks. She saves 10 p in week \(1,20 \mathrm { p }\) in week \(2,30 \mathrm { p }\) in week 3 and so on so that her weekly savings form an arithmetic sequence. She saves a total of \(\pounds 63\) in the \(m\) weeks.
3. Show that $$m ( m + 1 ) = 35 \times 36$$
4. Hence write down the value of \(m\).

7. The point \(P ( 4 , - 1 )\) lies on the curve \(C\) with equation \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x ) , x > 0\), and $$f ^ { \prime } ( x ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 } x - \frac { 6 } { \sqrt { } x } + 3$$

3. On the axes on page 17, sketch the curve with equation \(y = 4 x - 5 - x ^ { 2 }\) showing clearly the coordinates of any points where the curve crosses the coordinate axes. \includegraphics[max width=\textwidth, alt={}, center]{089c3b5b-22ab-4fa2-8383-4f30cefa792a-11_1143_1143_260_388}

9. The line \(L _ { 1 }\) has equation \(4 y + 3 = 2 x\) The point \(A ( p , 4 )\) lies on \(L _ { 1 }\)

1. Find the value of the constant \(p\). The line \(L _ { 2 }\) passes through the point \(C ( 2,4 )\) and is perpendicular to \(L _ { 1 }\)
2. Find an equation for \(L _ { 2 }\) giving your answer in the form \(a x + b y + c = 0\), where \(a , b\) and \(c\) are integers. The line \(L _ { 1 }\) and the line \(L _ { 2 }\) intersect at the point \(D\).
3. Find the coordinates of the point \(D\).
4. Show that the length of \(C D\) is \(\frac { 3 } { 2 } \sqrt { } 5\) A point \(B\) lies on \(L _ { 1 }\) and the length of \(A B = \sqrt { } ( 80 )\)
   The point \(E\) lies on \(L _ { 2 }\) such that the length of the line \(C D E = 3\) times the length of \(C D\).
5. Find the area of the quadrilateral \(A C B E\).

10. \begin{figure}[h] \end{figure} Figure 1 shows a sketch of the curve \(C\) with equation \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x )\) where $$f ( x ) = x ^ { 2 } ( 9 - 2 x )$$ There is a minimum at the origin, a maximum at the point \(( 3,27 )\) and \(C\) cuts the \(x\)-axis at the point \(A\).

1. Write down the coordinates of the point \(A\).
2. On separate diagrams sketch the curve with equation
   1. \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x + 3 )\)
   2. \(y = \mathrm { f } ( 3 x )\) On each sketch you should indicate clearly the coordinates of the maximum point and any points where the curves cross or meet the coordinate axes. The curve with equation \(y = \mathrm { f } ( x ) + k\), where \(k\) is a constant, has a maximum point at \(( 3,10 )\).
3. Write down the value of \(k\).
