2. The Edexcel Mathematics mark schemes use the following types of marks:
‘M’ marks
These are marks given for a correct method or an attempt at a correct method. In Mechanics
they are usually awarded for the application of some mechanical principle to produce an
equation.
e.g. resolving in a particular direction, taking moments about a point, applying a suvat
equation, applying the conservation of momentum principle etc.
The following criteria are usually applied to the equation.
M marks are sometimes dependent (DM) on previous M marks having been earned.
e.g. when two simultaneous equations have been set up by, for example, resolving in two
directions and there is then an M mark for solving the equations to find a particular quantity –
this M mark is often dependent on the two previous M marks having been earned.
‘A’ marks
These are dependent accuracy (or sometimes answer) marks and can only be awarded if the
previous M mark has been earned. E.g. M0 A1 is impossible.
‘B’ marks
These are independent accuracy marks where there is no method (e.g. often given for a
comment or for a graph)
These are some of the traditional marking abbreviations that will appear in the mark
schemes.
4. All A marks are ‘correct answer only’ (cao.), unless shown, for example, as A1 ft to
indicate that previous wrong working is to be followed through. After a misread
however, the subsequent A marks affected are treated as A ft, but manifestly absurd
answers should never be awarded A marks.
5. For misreading which does not alter the character of a question or materially simplify
it, deduct two from any A or B marks gained, in that part of the question affected.
2. Formula
Attempt to use correct formula (with values for a, b and c).
2. Integration
n +1
Power of at least one term increased by 1. ( x → x
n
)
Use of a formula
Where a method involves using a formula that has been learnt, the advice given in recent examiners’
reports is that the formula should be quoted first.
Method mark for quoting a correct formula and attempting to use it, even if there are small
mistakes in the substitution of values.
Where the formula is not quoted, the method mark can be gained by implication from correct
working with values, but may be lost if there is any mistake in the working.
Exact answers
Examiners’ reports have emphasised that where, for example, an exact answer is asked for, or
working with surds is clearly required, marks will normally be lost if the candidate resorts to using
rounded decimals.

previous method mark.
A1 21x + 4 y − 68 = 0 or any equivalent multiple where the coefficients are integers and all terms
are on one side of the equation. If they state values which contradict the equation then the
equation takes precedence.

The question says “In this question you must show detailed reasoning. Solutions relying on
calculator technology are not acceptable”. Correct answers do not imply full marks.
(a)
M1 Multiplies out the bracket to achieve a cubic, takes out a linear factor or cancels the x
leading to a quadratic factor (usually 2 x 2 + x − 15 ). Award for ...x(...x 2 ...x ...) or
...x(...x ...)(...x ...) May be implied by eg x(2 x − 5)( x + 3) May see = 0 or may be implied.
dM1 Attempts to solve their quadratic either by factorising or using the quadratic formula or
completing the square. They cannot just state the roots and the fully factorised version or
values of a, b and c must match their quadratic. It is dependent on the previous method
mark. The = 0 can be implied and the factorised quadratic may appear under their solutions.

dM1 Attempts to find the negative reciprocal to find the gradient of the normal. It is dependent on
the previous method mark.
M1 It is for the attempt to find the normal line passing though (9,8) , using a changed gradient
from f (9) and substituting x = 0 . Alternatively, they may just use their gradient of the
normal to determine where the line crosses the y-axis knowing that for every “3 units to the
left it is 1 up”. Condone a changed gradient from finding f (9) instead of from f (9) for
this mark.

B1 A positive cubic shape with a local maximum and a local minimum drawn anywhere on a
set of axes. Do not be concerned regarding the location of the minimum. Mark of the
intention to draw a cubic so condone aspects which may appear linear or slips of the pen.
k
B1 Intersects (not just meet) the x-axis at x = to the right of the y-axis and has a local
2
maximum (or minimum) on x = −4 which must be to the left of the y-axis. If there is a
contradiction between the labelling on the graph and values stated separately then the graph
labels take precedence. Condone for example (−4, 0) labelled as (0, − 4) as long as it is in
the correct position on the axis
B1 y-intercept is −16k (which must be below the x-axis) If there is a contradiction between the
labelling on the graph and the y-intercept stated separately then the graph label takes
precedence. Condone for example (0, − 16k ) labelled as (−16k , 0) as long as it is in the
correct position on the axis

(a)(ii)
B1 Correct shaped curve in the first or second quadrant. It must not cross either axis. Do not be
concerned by any labelled asymptotes or extra “branches” appearing in these quadrants.
Mark the intention to draw a graph which does not have a clear turning point.
B1 Correct curves in the first and second quadrants and no other curves appearing in quadrants
3 and 4 (unless the cubic from (i) has been drawn on the same axes). Mark the intention to
draw a graph tending towards the axes and does not have a clear turning point. If any
asymptotes are labelled or indicated with dashed lines which are not the coordinate axes
then withhold this mark.
(b) This mark can only be awarded provided both graphs are the correct shape and
position in part (a) (the intercepts with the axes are not needed for this mark)
B1 One root because the two graphs intersect each other once (only). Condone alternative
wording which implies they “meet” once. Do not allow references to intersecting the axes.

with labelled coordinates in the main body of working takes precedence. There must
be a sketch to score any marks.
B1 Sketch reflected in the y-axis with the intention to have the higher maximum turning point in
quadrant 1 and the lower maximum turning point in quadrant 2. Do not be concerned which
side of the y-axis the minimum turning point is located.
B1 Either two correct pairs of coordinates or all x coordinates correct or all y coordinates
correct. Do not be concerned with the relative locations of the coordinates in relation to each

x = ..., y = ... ) Do not be concerned with the relative locations of the coordinates in relation
