1. (a) Solve 𝑙𝑜𝑔4 𝑥 + 6𝑙𝑜𝑔𝑥 2 = 4 , [5]

(b)

The diagram above (not drawn to scale) shows the graph of 𝑦 = 𝑙𝑜𝑔2 𝑥 between x = 1 and x = 8.
The shaded region, bounded by 𝑦 = 𝑙𝑜𝑔2 𝑥 , the line y = 3, and the x and y axes, is rotated about
the y-axis to form a solid.

(i) Show that the volume of the solid formed is given by 𝑉 = 𝜋 ∫0 𝑒 𝑦 𝑙𝑛4 𝑑𝑦 . [3]

𝑎
(ii) Hence find the value for the volume of the solid in the form ln 𝑏
𝜋 where a and b are real
numbers. [3]

2. The Barbados Water Authority has a reservoir which is to be partly refilled by water supplied by
a desalination plant. The desalinated water contains a small quantity of salt and it has been
determined that the differential equation

𝑑𝑄 𝑄
𝑑𝑡
=5− 10

where Q is the quantity of salt, in kg, in the reservoir on any day and t is the time in days,
describes the rate of change of salt in the reservoir.

Assume there was no salt in the reservoir originally; solve this differential equation to
find Q, the quantity of salt in the reservoir at any time t. [6]

Use the trapezium rule with three intervals of equal width to estimate the area of the shaded
region. [4]
