Answer all the questions.

Omission of essential working will result in loss of marks.
You are reminded of the need for clear presentation in your answers.
If the numerical answer is not exact, give your answer to 1 decimal place for angles in degrees
and 3 significant figures for all others unless otherwise stated in the question.
The number of marks is given in brackets [ ] at the end of each question or part question.

Sketch the graph of y f ( x ) showing the above information clearly. (You are not required to find
the x-intercepts) [3]
