Paper 1 Markscheme

Instructions to Examiners
Note: The number of marks for each question has been increased to 8. Where there are 2 marks
(e.g. M2, A2) for an answer do NOT split the marks unless otherwise instructed.

1 Method of Marking

(a) All marking must be done using a red pen.

(b) In this paper, the maximum mark is awarded for a correct answer, irrespective of the method
used. Thus, if the correct answer appears in the answer box, award the maximum mark and
move onto the next question; in this case there is no need to check the method.

(c) If an answer is wrong, then marks should be awarded for the method according to the
markscheme. (A correct answer incorrectly transferred to the answer box is awarded the
maximum mark.)

2 Abbreviations

The markscheme may make use of the following abbreviations:

M Marks awarded for Method

A Marks awarded for an Answer or for Accuracy

G Marks awarded for correct solutions, generally obtained from a Graphic Display Calculator,
irrespective of working shown

C Marks awarded for Correct answers (irrespective of working shown)

R Marks awarded for clear Reasoning

3 Follow Through (ft) Marks

Errors made at any step of a solution can affect all working that follows. To limit the severity of the
penalty, follow through (ft) marks should be awarded. The procedures for awarding these marks
require that all examiners:

(i) penalize the error when it first occurs;

(ii) accept the incorrect answer as the appropriate value or quantity to be used in all subsequent
working;

(iii) award M marks for a correct method and A(ft) marks if the subsequent working contains no
further errors.

Follow through procedures may be applied repeatedly throughout the same problem.
 -4- N05/5/MATSD/SP1/ENG/TZ0/XX/M+

The following illustrates a use of the follow through procedure.

Markscheme Candidate’s Script Marking

$ 600 × 1.02 M1 Amount earned = $ 600 × 1.02 3 M1
= $ 612 A1 = $ 602 ° A0
$ (306 × 1.02) + (306 × 1.04) M1 Amount = 301 × 1.02 + 301 × 1.04 3 M1
= $ 630.36 A1 = $ 620.06 3 A1(ft)

Note that the candidate made an arithmetical error at line 2; the candidate used a correct method at
lines 3, 4; the candidate's working at lines 3, 4 is correct.

However, if a question is transformed by an error into a different, much simpler question then:

(i) fewer marks should be awarded at the discretion of the Examiner;

(ii) marks awarded should be followed by “(d)” (to indicate that these marks have been awarded at
the discretion of the Examiner);

(iii) a brief note should be written on the script explaining how these marks have been awarded.

4 Using the Markscheme

(a) This markscheme presents a particular way in which each question may be worked and how it
should be marked. Alternative methods have not always been included. Thus, if an answer is
wrong then the working must be carefully analysed in order that marks are awarded for a
different method in a manner which is consistent with the markscheme.
In this case:
(i) a mark should be awarded followed by “(d)” (to indicate that the marks have been
awarded at the discretion of the Examiner);

(ii) a brief note should be written on the script explaining how these marks have been awarded.

Where alternative methods for complete questions are included, they are indicated by
METHOD 1, METHOD 2, etc. Other alternative solutions, including graphic display
calculator alternative solutions are indicated by OR. For example:

Mean = 7906/134 (M1)

= 59 (A1)
OR
Mean = 59 (G2)

sinθ
(b) Unless the question specifies otherwise, accept equivalent forms. For example: for tan θ .
cosθ
On the markscheme, these equivalent numerical or algebraic forms will be written in brackets after
the required answer. Paper setters will indicate the required answer, by allocating full marks at that
point. Further working should be ignored, even if it is incorrect. For example: if candidates are
asked to factorize a quadratic expression, and they do so correctly, they are awarded full marks. If
they then continue and find the roots of the corresponding equation, do not penalize, even if those
roots are incorrect i.e., once the correct answer is seen, ignore further working.

(c) As this is an international examination, all alternative forms of notation should be accepted. For
G
example: 1.7, 1·7, 1,7 ; different forms of vector notation such as u , u , u ; tan −1 x for arctan x.

5 Accuracy of Answers

If the level of accuracy is specified in the question, a mark will be allocated for giving the answer to
the required accuracy.

There are two types of accuracy error. Candidates should be penalized once only IN THE PAPER
for an accuracy error (AP). Award the marks as usual then write –1(AP) against the answer and also
on the front cover.

Rounding errors: only applies to final answers not to intermediate steps.

Level of accuracy: when this is not specified in the question the general rule unless otherwise stated
in the question all numerical answers must be given exactly or to three significant figures applies.

• If a final correct answer is incorrectly rounded, apply the AP

OR
• If the level of accuracy is not specified in the question, apply the AP for answers not given to 3
significant figures. (Please note that this has changed from May 2003).

Incorrect answers are wrong, and the accuracy penalty should not be applied to incorrect answers.

6 Graphic Display Calculators

Many candidates will be obtaining solutions directly from their calculators, often without showing any
working. They have been advised that they must use mathematical notation, not calculator commands
when explaining what they are doing. Incorrect answers without working will receive no marks.
However, if there is written evidence of using a graphic display calculator correctly, method marks
may be awarded. Where possible, examples will be provided to guide examiners in awarding these
method marks
