OCR (Oxford Cambridge and RSA) is a leading UK awarding body, providing a wide range of qualifications to meet the needs of candidates of all ages and abilities. OCR qualifications include AS/A Levels, Diplomas, GCSEs, Cambridge Nationals, Cambridge Technicals, Functional Skills, Key Skills, Entry Level qualifications, NVQs and vocational qualifications in areas such as IT, business, languages, teaching/training, administration and secretarial skills. It is also responsible for developing new specifications to meet national requirements and the needs of students and teachers. OCR is a not-for-profit organisation; any surplus made is invested back into the establishment to help towards the development of qualifications and support, which keep pace with the changing needs of today’s society. This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which marks were awarded by examiners. It does not indicate the details of the discussions which took place at an examiners’ meeting before marking commenced. All examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills demonstrated. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the published question papers and the report on the examination. OCR will not enter into any discussion or correspondence in connection with this mark scheme. © OCR 2016

6993 Mark Scheme June 2016

Subject-specific Marking Instructions for Additional Mathematics

a Annotations should be used whenever appropriate during your marking.

The A, M and B annotations must be used on your standardisation scripts for responses that are not awarded either 0 or full marks. It is vital that you annotate standardisation scripts fully to show how the marks have been awarded.

For subsequent marking you must make it clear how you have arrived at the mark you have awarded

b An element of professional judgement is required in the marking of any written paper. Remember that the mark scheme is designed to assist in marking incorrect solutions. Correct solutions leading to correct answers are awarded full marks but work must not be judged on the answer alone, and answers that are given in the question, especially, must be validly obtained; key steps in the working must always be looked at and anything unfamiliar must be investigated thoroughly.

Correct but unfamiliar or unexpected methods are often signalled by a correct result following an apparently incorrect method. Such work must be carefully assessed. When a candidate adopts a method which does not correspond to the mark scheme, award marks according to the spirit of the basic scheme; if you are in any doubt whatsoever (especially if several marks or candidates are involved) you should contact your Team Leader.

c The following types of marks are available.

M A suitable method has been selected and applied in a manner which shows that the method is essentially understood. Method marks are not usually lost for numerical errors, algebraic slips or errors in units. However, it is not usually sufficient for a candidate just to indicate an intention of using some method or just to quote a formula; the formula or idea must be applied to the specific problem in hand, eg by substituting the relevant quantities into the formula. In some cases the nature of the errors allowed for the award of an M mark may be specified.

A Accuracy mark, awarded for a correct answer or intermediate step correctly obtained. Accuracy marks cannot be given unless the associated Method mark is earned (or implied). Therefore M0 A1 can never be awarded.

BMark for a correct result or statement independent of Method marks.

6993 Mark Scheme June 2016

d When a part of a question has two or more ‘method’ steps, the M marks are in principle independent unless the scheme specifically says otherwise; and similarly where there are several B marks allocated. (The notation ‘dep *’ is used to indicate that a particular mark is dependent on an earlier, asterisked, mark in the scheme.) Of course, in practice it may happen that when a candidate has once gone wrong in a part of a question, the work from there on is worthless so that no more marks can sensibly be given. On the other hand, when two or more steps are successfully run together by the candidate, the earlier marks are implied and full credit must be given.

e The abbreviation ft implies that the A or B mark indicated is allowed for work correctly following on from previously incorrect results. Otherwise, A and B marks are given for correct work only — differences in notation are of course permitted. A (accuracy) marks are not given for answers obtained from incorrect working. When A or B marks are awarded for work at an intermediate stage of a solution, there may be various alternatives that are equally acceptable. In such cases, exactly what is acceptable will be detailed in the mark scheme rationale. If this is not the case please consult your Team Leader.

Sometimes the answer to one part of a question is used in a later part of the same question. In this case, A marks will often be ‘follow through’. In such cases you must ensure that you refer back to the answer of the previous part question even if this is not shown within the image zone. You may find it easier to mark follow through questions candidate-by-candidate rather than question-by-question.

f Wrong or missing units in an answer should not lead to the loss of a mark unless the scheme specifically indicates otherwise. Candidates are expected to give numerical answers to an appropriate degree of accuracy, with 3 significant figures often being the norm. Small variations in the degree of accuracy to which an answer is given (e.g. 2 or 4 significant figures where 3 is expected) should not normally be penalised, while answers which are grossly over- or under-specified should normally result in the loss of a mark. The situation regarding any particular cases where the accuracy of the answer may be a marking issue should be detailed in the mark scheme rationale. If in doubt, contact your Team Leader.

g Rules for replaced work

If a candidate attempts a question more than once, and indicates which attempt he/she wishes to be marked, then examiners should do as the candidate requests.

If there are two or more attempts at a question which have not been crossed out, examiners should mark what appears to be the last (complete) attempt and ignore the others.

NB Follow these maths-specific instructions rather than those in the assessor handbook.

h For a genuine misreading (of numbers or symbols) which is such that the object and the difficulty of the question remain unaltered, mark according to the scheme but following through from the candidate’s data. A penalty is then applied; 1 mark is generally appropriate, though this may differ for some units. This is achieved by withholding one A mark in the question.

Note that a miscopy of the candidate’s own working is not a misread but an accuracy error.

OCR (Oxford Cambridge and RSA) is a leading UK awarding body, providing a wide range of qualifications to meet the needs of candidates of all ages and abilities. OCR qualifications include AS / A Levels, Diplomas, GCSEs, Cambridge Nationals, Cambridge Technicals, Functional Skills, Key Skills, Entry Level qualifications, NVQs and vocational qualifications in areas such as IT, business, languages, teaching / training, administration and secretarial skills. It is also responsible for developing new specifications to meet national requirements and the needs of students and teachers. OCR is a not-for-profit organisation; any surplus made is invested back into the establishment to help towards the development of qualifications and support, which keep pace with the changing needs of today’s society. This report on the examination provides information on the performance of candidates which it is hoped will be useful to teachers in their preparation of candidates for future examinations. It is intended to be constructive and informative and to promote better understanding of the specification content, of the operation of the scheme of assessment and of the application of assessment criteria. Reports should be read in conjunction with the published question papers and mark schemes for the examination. OCR will not enter into any discussion or correspondence in connection with this report. © OCR 2016

OCR Report to Centres – June 2016

Additional Mathematics – 6993

General

Candidates found one or two questions tricky and the mean score was a little down on last year.

Centres will be aware that the assessment cannot test all the specification content in one

examination; the requirement is to cover the whole specification within a few years. There is no

requirement within the specification for specific proportions of the assessment per topic.

Consequently, the percentage of the topics will vary from year to year. Candidates who are

thoroughly prepared for the examination will find no difficulty with this, but those who are

prepared for specific topics could struggle.

Question 1

This was an easy start to the paper and most candidates obtained the correct answer. The most

common error was incorrect processing of signs leading to 1 2 6 4x x and a final answer of

5

6x . Much less common, though more disturbing at this level, was to write

1 2( 3) 1( 3)x x . Very few had to be penalised for using treating the question as an

equation.

Question 2

There were very few incorrect answers to this question. A very small percentage of candidates

differentiated and it was rare to see the coordinates substituted the wrong way round. Just a few

were penalised for not writing the equation properly as ‘y =.....’.

Question 3

The most common error was to obtain 3

tan4

x rather than 4

tan3

x . The second most common

error was in not obtaining the 2nd

value correctly.

The alternative method was to square both sides and use Pythagoras.

However, there are problems with this approach because the result 2 216 9sin or cos

25 25x x

will yield 4 values for x, 2 of which satisfy the equation 4

tan3

x . There is a fair amount of

extra work to obtain the correct answer by this method as the values that do not satisfy the given

equation need to be rejected. This is a typical case where an alternative method is perfectly

acceptable but takes very much more time.

Question 4

(i) Most substituted the correct value but there were a few who substituted x = 2. This was

a “show that” question and so all the calculations need to be shown.

An alternative method was, instead of using the factor theorem, to divide f(x) by (x 2) to show

that there was no remainder. This was a lot of work for 1 mark, but fortunately on this occasion

what was done could be used in part (ii).

(ii) The derivation of the quadratic factor was required here but credited if it was seen in (i).

Clearly it was not sufficient to say that the quadratic factor did not factorise. It was necessary to

set it equal to 0 and to attempt to solve, usually by showing that the discriminant was negative.

Some substituted factors of 6 into the cubic in an attempt to show 2 was the only root which was

also clearly insufficient as it depends on any roots being integers.

OCR Report to Centres – June 2016

5

It was disappointing to see candidates who had been successful so far writing “therefore (x 2) is

the only root”.

Question 5

(i) This was successfully completed by the vast majority with just a few adding together the

smallest lengths for all three sides.

(ii) Most candidates correctly used the cosine rule and gained the method mark without

necessarily finding the correct angle. A number made several attempts with different

combinations of lengths without appreciating the geometry of the problem. Some candidates

appeared to be wary of using 20.5 as an upper value and opted for 20.4. Some even used

inconsistent values such as 11.5 and 12.5 in the numerator and denominator of the cosine rule. It

was a good discriminator as candidates were required to think to select the correct combination of

lengths.

Question 6

(i) The majority of candidates found this a very challenging question with the 100 m

difference creating a conceptual difficulty in applying the equations of motion. A significant

number wrote down all the equations of motion that they could remember, made a faltering start

and moved on. A number did successfully obtain the correct answer by trial and error but others

amazingly got 400 m by rather more dubious means. Often the values of 1.5 and 2 were used as

velocities rather than accelerations and a common result was 2 × 200 s. This question clearly

differentiated between those who could apply their knowledge to a problem and those who could

not.

(ii) This part was not attempted by many who had failed in part (i) but those who had found a

distance in part (i) often obtained the method mark in this part.

Question 7

The three dimensional nature of this problem caused difficulty to many candidates who could not

appreciate the nature of the isosceles and right-angled triangles.

(i) Many candidates used unnecessary calculations and the result was not stated often. Many

found PB in this part and did not mention it in part (ii).

(ii) Strong candidates realised that triangle PQB was right-angled at P and proceeded to get 4

marks in a couple of lines. Others, however, found BQ by very long-winded ways including the

application of the sine or cosine rule in the right-angled triangle. Some did not appreciate where

the right angle was and used the incorrect ratio. This was another question that tested the ability

of candidates to apply their knowledge in unfamiliar circumstances.

Question 8

(i) While most candidates were successful with this question a surprising number struggled

with the expansion. Even those who expanded (1+δ)(1+ δ) then multiplied the result by (1+δ)

often made careless numerical errors. The most successful candidates used Pascal’s triangle,

although there were still careless errors, leaving the answer as 13+3δ+3δ

2+δ

3, forgetting the

coefficients or giving every term a coefficient of 3.

(ii) Few students were clear or confident in their explanations. Most recognised the squared

and cubed terms would be smaller, and have less significance or make less difference but few

proceeded to say they were so small to be negligible, or approximated to zero.

(iii) Most correctly substituted and a number used the guidance provided in part (ii). However,

too many candidates expanded 0.9(1+δ) incorrectly, obtaining 0.9+0.9δ and thus an incorrect

answer. Even those who did this correctly and found δ, often did not go on to find x. This shows a

lack of attention to detail that is concerning at this level of mathematics.

Question 9

(i) This part was generally well answered. The vast majority of candidates differentiated

correctly. Some then set this equal to zero and attempted to solve it but most substituted

x = 3. There was again some careless numerical work resulting in 12 as the gradient rather than

6, however generally the gradient was used with the correct coordinates to find the equation of

the line. There was some carelessness arithmetic. For instance, )3(65 xy often

became 136 xy . A number of students used the normal gradient instead, a lack of

thoroughness in reading the question.

(ii) This part was less well answered. Candidates recognised that the gradient of 6 was

relevant and needed to be used but many were unsure how to use it. A number tried to use the

equation of a line with 6 and obviously had no direction with which to continue the question.

Many candidates did correctly equate d

d

y

xand ‘their’ 6 and then solve correctly to obtain the

correct x value. From this point there was again a disappointing number of careless errors when

substituting to find y; this lack of scrupulousness cost marks here and elsewhere in the paper.

Question 10

(i) This question, in common with previous years, was very well answered, the vast majority

of candidates achieving full marks. There were the usual and expected mistakes of shading the

wrong sides, not plotting accurately enough, or confusing the axes so the lines were plotted

incorrectly, but on the whole candidates were very successful.

(ii) This part was less successful than part (i) although candidates were generally accurate. A

few just identified the relevant point and did not find the maximum amount; others attempted

decimal points or points outside the feasible region resulting in incorrect answers.

Question 11

A large number of candidates made little or no attempt at this question, possibly because they

thought it was simply a mechanics question. Very few scored full marks.

(i) The most common error was to say OP = 20t and similarly for OQ.

(ii) Of those who made it successfully to this part, a large number failed to get the final A1

mark through faulty expansion – not least because of the number of 0s involved!

(iii) A fair number made some headway this part, though by no means all equated their

derivative to zero. Some candidates seemed to be uncomfortable with finding d

d

y

x when “y” was

not a function of x but of x2.

(iv) This part was generally very well answered even by those who had made little headway in

the other parts.

Question 12

This was an easily accessible question, but despite a high level of competence in algebraic

manipulation, better training in setting out solutions more systematically would lead to fewer

errors.

(i) Many candidates understood the concepts behind this question and were able to access

this part. Very few were unable to produce the correct "negative reciprocal". Where there were

errors it was often in the collecting together of the constants after the values (8, 3) had been

substituted into the correct equation.

(ii) It was a rare candidate who failed to recognise that this was a question on simultaneous

equations. Most chose the sensible method of substitution to solve them and did so successfully,

although elimination was also seen. Testing which points lay on both lines was rarely seen. A

small minority made mistakes in basic arithmetic and were unaware that they had done so;

centres should encourage students to check their answers. Rearrangement of the equation

3x y = 1 to y = 1 3x was an error seen not infrequently.

(iii) Many candidates knew how to find the length of a line. Those who had obtained the

coordinates of Q successfully in (ii) went on to get this part correct on the whole. Many

candidates converted to decimal form, but centres would do well to encourage surd form,

especially as decimal form usually encourages writing numbers to, say, 3 significant figures.

(iv) Nearly all students knew the basic formula for the equation of a circle and most knew that

the radius was their answer to part (iii). One fairly common error was to halve the answer

obtained in part (iii). Another was to give the radius and not the radius squared. Here, candidates

with an approximate answer in (iii), obtained only an approximate answer here, and this was

penalised.

(v) This was, as expected, very discriminatory part with only a small minority of candidates

knowing how to find the point on the line, although many knew that parallel lines have equal

gradients. Candidates should be encouraged to draw their own rough diagrams for geometry

questions to help them with problem solving strategies. With a diagram, the vector can clearly be

seen and the point found. Candidates who embarked on finding the points of intersection of the

circle with a general line of the form y = 3x + c, presumably to find the values of c that gave

coincident points, could not work it through to completion. This would be another example of an

alternative, long-winded, method that would require much more work than the marks available

would justify.

Question 13

Although this question was of a familiar type, and expressed in terms of money, which usually

makes it easier for candidates to realise what is going on, it still proved challenging to many.

(i) The majority of candidates who were making a reasonable attempt at the paper were able

to gain both marks, albeit some of them having mixed units.

(ii) When there were two fractions from part (i) to be combined into an equation, the expected

error of 5 being added to the wrong term was quite common. A surprisingly common error was

to multiply one of the equations by 5, in effect, saying that five times as many buns could be

bought rather than five more.

Assuming there was an equation of the correct form, fractions were usually cleared successfully.

A significant number of candidates who had the wrong units in their initial equation then realised

part way through that there was a problem and tried to adjust, not always successfully.

Consequently, there was plenty of 'fudging' evident. This also included those who had added 5 to

the wrong term in their initial equation and obtained the wrong sign in the printed answer.

(iii) A good number of candidates showed sound examination technique by picking up the

question at this point, even when the first two parts had defeated them. Ironically, those who

didn’t and left this part blank, had already demonstrated success on similar work elsewhere in the

paper!

The formula was the usual method of solution, and the correct answers found and usually

expressed in context. Some candidates continue to misquote the quadratic formula or make

careless slips when substituting in values.

Those who chose to factorise were normally successful. Completing the square, as expected, was

the least common and least successful method of solution.

Some candidates should have been alerted by their impractical answers: loaves for 7p, for

example!

Question 14

(i) Many candidates were able to answer this question correctly. The type of mistakes that

were seen when forming the two equations included candidates not dealing with the negative sign

correctly when squaring or to form a quadratic by having a2 in the equation.

Most candidates were able to go on correctly to solve the simultaneous equations with sufficient

working shown. Some candidates did not read the question and showed that the values worked

rather than solving the equations.

Candidates who had more success in solving the two equations usually attempted to do so with

the equations in their simplified form.

(ii) Most candidates were able to find the midpoint but not all went on to show that this point

was on the curve. Some attempted to but did not show sufficient evidence by evaluating the

indices.

(iii) Many candidates appreciated the need for integration for this question. Many were able to

integrate the curve correctly and the majority recognising that this was not the complete answer.

Finding the equation of the line was good but the combination of subtracting two areas with

negative limits proved too much for many. This was compounded by the fact that most candidates

used integration to find the area under the line, rather than find the area of a trapezium.
