1. (a) Sketch the curve with equation

$$y = a ^ { x } + 4$$ where \(a\) is a positive constant greater than 1
On your sketch, show

• the coordinates of the point of intersection of the curve with the \(y\)-axis
• the equation of the asymptote of the curve

The table shows corresponding values of \(x\) and \(y\) for $$y = 2 ^ { x } - 2 x$$ with the values of \(y\) given to 4 decimal places as appropriate.
Using the trapezium rule with all the values of \(y\) in the given table,
(b) obtain an estimate for \(\int _ { 2 } ^ { 3.5 } \left( 2 ^ { x } - 2 x \right) \mathrm { d } x\), giving your answer to 2 decimal places.
(c) Using your answer to part (b) and making your method clear, estimate

1. \(\int _ { 2 } ^ { 3.5 } \left( 2 ^ { x } + 2 x \right) \mathrm { d } x\)
2. \(\int _ { 2 } ^ { 3.5 } \left( 2 ^ { x + 1 } - 4 x \right) \mathrm { d } x\)
