3 At the beginning of an experiment, an inverted circular cone is filled with sand. The
base radius of the cone is 5 cm and the slant height is 13 cm. Sand is leaking through
a small hole at the bottom of the cone at the rate of 7 cm3s−1 at the instant when the
depth of the sand in the cone is 2.5 cm. Find the rate of decrease of the depth of the
sand at this instant. [5]
[It is given that the volume of a circular cone with base radius r and vertical height h
is 21
3r hπ .]

Fig. 1 shows a piece of square card, ABCD, with sides n cm, where n is a positive constant. A rectangle EFGH, as shown in Fig. 2, is being cut from the card such that
EF = HG = 2x cm and BF = GC = x cm. The rectangle is rolled up to form a cylinder
of height 2x cm, where EH and FG are the circumference of the circular ends of the cylinder, as shown in Fig. 3. The cylinder is placed on a horizontal table top and the volume of this open cylinder is V cm3.

9 A bank has an account for investors. Interest is added to the account at the end of
each year at a fixed rate of 3% of the amount in the account at the beginning of that
year. Mary and Ben both invest money.
(a) Mary decides to invest $x at the beginning of one year and then a further $x at
the beginning of the second and each subsequent year. She also decides that
she will not draw any money out of the account, but just leave it, and any
interest, to build up.
(i) How much will there be in the account at the end of 1 year, including
the interest? [1]
(ii) Show that, at the end of n years, when the interest for the last year has
been added, she will have a total of $ ( )1031.03 1

[3]
(iii) If Mary starts investing at the beginning of 2016 with an amount of
$10 000, at the end of which year will she have, for the first time, at
least $190 000 in her account? [4]
(b) Ben decides that, to assist him in his everyday expenses, he will withdraw the
interest as soon as it has been added. He invests $y at the beginning of each
year. Find the total amount of interest he will receive at the end of n years. [4]
