| Topic | Volumes of Revolution |
| Type | Multi-part: volume and stationary points |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 Part (i) requires standard differentiation of a sum involving negative power and linear function, solving dy/dx=0, and using second derivative test—routine calculus. Part (ii) is a straightforward volume of revolution calculation using the standard formula with polynomial expansion. Both parts follow textbook procedures with no novel insight required, making this slightly easier than average. |

A curve has equation $y = (kx - 3)^{-1} + (kx - 3)$, where $k$ is a non-zero constant.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item Find the $x$-coordinates of the stationary points in terms of $k$, and determine the nature of each stationary point. Justify your answers. [7]

\item \includegraphics{figure_3}
The diagram shows part of the curve for the case when $k = 1$. Showing all necessary working, find the volume obtained when the region between the curve, the $x$-axis, the $y$-axis and the line $x = 2$, shown shaded in the diagram, is rotated through $360°$ about the $x$-axis. [5]
\end{enumerate}
