Graph of a downward-opening parabola with vertex at (1, 2) intersecting the y-axis at 0, extending into negative y-values as x increases.

Use the trapezium rule with h = 0.2 to find an estimate of the integral

integral subscript 1 superscript 2 open parentheses 4 minus 2 straight x to the power of Inx close parentheses dx

to three significant figures.

The diagram below shows a sketch of the graph of y = x(x-6)2 x ≥0

Graph of a curve with a shaded area from x=1 to x=6, peak at (2, 32). The curve intersects the x-axis at points 1, 5, and between 5 and 6.

The graph has a local maximum point at (2,32) as indicated on the diagram.

Use the trapezium rule with 5 ordinate values to estimate the area shaded.

The energy company Power2 own and maintain a wind farm.

Engineers from Power2 model the power output, P kW (kiloWatts), of a single wind turbine over a twelve-hour period according to the function

straight p open parentheses straight t close parentheses equals 60 plus 5 straight e to the power of 0.7 square root of t end exponent sin space t 0≤ t ≤ 12

where t is the number of hours after 6pm. The graph of y = P(t) is shown below.

Line graph with grid showing a fluctuating data trend. y-axis is P from 0 to 100, x-axis is t from 0 to 12, peaks at 9 and dips at 11.

Estimate the total power generated by this wind turbine between midnight and 4am.

Once every twelve hours, Power? turn each wind turbine off for half an hour for maintenance and safety checks.

Suggest, with a reason, at what time between 6pm and 6am the maintenance and safety checks should be carried out on the wind turbine modelled above.

The XnValdez container ship was carrying 4000 tonnes of crude oil when it ran aground and oil started leaking from its hull into the ocean.

It took 36 days for experts to stop the oil leak.

During that time the leakage rate of the oil, measured in tonnes per day, was recorded every 4 days. The results are shown in the table below.

An environmental disaster is declared if the total amount of crude oil that leaks into the ocean exceeds 2500 tonnes.

Use all the data in the table to decide if environmentalists were right to declare the XnValdez incident an environmental disaster or not.

A stretch of road along Baker Street has a speed limit of 60 mph and traffic is monitored by eight average speed cameras.

Sherlock is driving along Baker Street and passes the first camera at time zero.
