QUESTION 9

 Draw a graph of 𝑓 if 𝑓 (𝑥 ) = (𝑥 + 𝑝)2 (𝑥 − 𝑞 ) and
        𝑓 (6) = 0
        𝑓 ′ (0) = 𝑓 ′ (4) = 0
        𝑓 ′ (𝑥 ) < 0 for 0 < 𝑥 < 4
        𝑓 ′ (𝑥 ) > 0 for 𝑥 < 0 𝑜𝑟 𝑥 > 4
        𝑓 (2) = −16

QUESTION 10

 A stone is thrown upward and its height after 𝑡 seconds is given by equation
 ℎ = 18𝑡 − 4𝑡 2 metres.

 10.1      Determine the height of the stone after 2 seconds.                            (2)

 10.2                                                  1                                 (3)
           Determine the velocity of the stone after 1 2 seconds.

 10.3      What is the maximum height that the stone will reach ?                        (4)
                                                                                         [9]
