WJEC Unit 3 Specimen Q14
14. (a) A cylindrical water tank has base area \(4 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 2 }\). The depth of the water at time \(t\) seconds is \(h\) metres. Water is poured in at the rate \(0.004 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }\) per second. Water leaks from a hole in the bottom at a rate of \(0.0008 \mathrm { hm } ^ { 3 }\) per second. Show that $$5000 \frac { \mathrm {~d} h } { \mathrm {~d} t } \equiv 5 - h$$ [Hint: the volume, \(V\), of the cylindrical water tank is given by \(V = 4 h\).]
(b) Given that the tank is empty initially, find \(h\) in terms of \(t\).
(c) Find the depth of the water in the tank when \(t = 3600 \mathrm {~s}\), giving your answer correct to 2 decimal places.
WJEC Unit 3 Specimen Q15
15. Prove by contradiction the following proposition. When \(x\) is real and positive, $$4 x + \frac { 9 } { x } \geq 12$$ The first line of the proof is given below.
Assume that there is a positive and a real value of \(x\) such that $$4 x + \frac { 9 } { x } < 12$$

\hline \end{tabular} \end{center} a) Differentiate each of the following functions with respect to \(x\). i) \(x ^ { 5 } \ln x\)
ii) \(\frac { \mathrm { e } ^ { 3 x } } { x ^ { 3 } - 1 }\)
iii) \(( \tan x + 7 x ) ^ { \frac { 1 } { 2 } }\)
b) A function is defined implicitly by $$3 y + 4 x y ^ { 2 } - 5 x ^ { 3 } = 8$$ Find \(\frac { \mathrm { d } y } { \mathrm {~d} x }\) in terms of \(x\) and \(y\).

The function \(f ( x )\) is defined by $$f ( x ) = \frac { \sqrt { x ^ { 2 } - 1 } } { x }$$ with domain \(x \geqslant 1\).
a) Find an expression for \(f ^ { - 1 } ( x )\). State the domain for \(f ^ { - 1 }\) and sketch both \(f ( x )\) and \(f ^ { - 1 } ( x )\) on the same diagram.
b) Explain why the function \(f f ( x )\) cannot be formed.

a) Show that \(\sin \theta = \theta - \frac { 2 \pi } { 3 }\).
b) i) Show that \(\theta\) lies between \(2 \cdot 6\) and \(2 \cdot 7\).
ii) Starting with \(\theta _ { 0 } = 2 \cdot 6\), use the Newton-Raphson Method to find the value of \(\theta\) correct to three decimal places.
