21
(a) Make \(c\) the subject of \(\;A = \dfrac{c}{y} - 5z\) (2)
(b) Write down the value of \(g^0\) (1)
(c) Factorise \(\;x^2 - 11x + 24\) (2)
| Scheme | Marks |
|---|---|
e.g. \(A + 5z = \dfrac{c}{y}\) oe or \(Ay = c - 5yz\) oe | M1 |
| \(c = y(A + 5z)\) | A1 |
| (2) |
Notes
M1: for a correct first step e.g. add \(5z\) to both sides or multiply all terms by \(y\)
A1: oe

Notes
M1: or for \((x \pm a)(x \pm b)\) where \(ab = 24\) or \(a + b = -11\)
