Figure 2
In this question you must show all stages of your working.
Solutions relying entirely on calculator technology are not acceptable.

Figure 2 shows a sketch of part of the curve C with equation

3 2 1
y=– x + x + 20
50 5

and a sketch of the line l1 with equation

5y + 2x = 100

(a) State the gradient of l1

(1)
The point P(10, 16) lies on C.
The line l2 is perpendicular to l1 and intersects l1 at P as shown in Figure 2.
(b) Find an equation for l2 , giving your answer in the form ax + by + c = 0
where a, b and c are constants.
(3)
Given that l2 crosses the x-axis at the point Q
(c) find the x coordinate of Q
(2)
Given also that l1 crosses the x-axis at the point R
(d) find the exact area of triangle PQR
(3)
The shaded region, shown in Figure 2, is bounded by C, the x-axis and l1
(e) Find, in simplest form, the fraction of triangle PQR that is shaded.
