PSLE MATH PAPER 1 TRIAL EXAM
The purpose of this exam is to give students the LEARNING EXPERIENCE of doing a PSLE Math paper under EXAM CONDITIONS, so that they and their parents are able to gauge their LEVEL OF READINESS for the actual PSLE exam paper.
The paper has been set as close as possible to the latest PSLE exam standard of difficulty. Since Paper 1 is only 50 mins, after the answer scripts have been collected, each student will be given the same paper with the model answers for discussion, as IMMEDIATE FEEDBACK is very important in learning. The students will be informed of their P1 marks via sms to parents.
Dates & Times of Exams (choose one):
(1) 14 Aug (Fri), 6 pm – 7.45 pm
(2) 15 Aug (Sat), 9.30 am – 11.15 am.
Fee: $30 (inclusive of discussion, marking and model answers)
Location: Blk 644, Bukit Batok Central, #01-68. S(650644).

PSLE MATH SEP HOLIDAY INTENSIVE REVISION
Mid-year (SA1) results important for DSA to JC or Poly
I think many students are not aware of this. If you are good in sports and intend to apply to a JC or Poly via DSA in June, they will look at your mid-year exam results. Thus you should aim to at least pass all your O-level subjects with a B4/B3 average at the least, else the JC or Poly would tell you to re-apply again with your prelim results instead.
The problem is, the S4 mid-year exam is always the hardest exam to do well in due to the following reasons:
(1) Teachers would have just finished teaching some topics and then the exam comes;
(2) There is little or no revision time for older topics;
(3) It tests the S3 topics as well and in the case of Math it tests all the topics from S1;
(4) Exam-setters typically make it very hard in order to “wake-up” the students.
Thus S4 students often fail most of their subjects for SA1. The results don’t matter much if you are NOT applying to JCs or Polys via DSA in June. But even if you don’t intend to use DSA, poor results at SA1 doesn’t bode well for your performance in the prelims, which in turn will not give you the confidence you need to face the O-levels.
THUS DOING WELL AT SA1 IS STILL IMPORTANT NO MATTER HOW BUSY YOU ARE. PLEASE PRIORITIZE YOUR TIME CORRECTLY AND AIM TO DO WELL IN ALL EXAMS.

Hi, we tried to rush it out. This might not be the most appropriate suggested solutions. Feel free to comment and discuss. Let me know if I make mistakes. Thanks!
Also, we might not respond too fast as we will be trying to do the paper 2 for h2 math later too.
ERRATA:
4(ii) I made a silly mistake substituting the equations back in. You should get (4, 18) and (8,6) as the answers.
Many thanks to those who point out my mistakes.

MOCK EXAMS FOR SCIENCE PRACTICAL
The following is a suggested solution by our H2 and H1 Math Tutor, Mr. Teng. Please note that it is a suggested solutions and was rushed out. Mr. Teng omitted several presentation steps out of convenience. There might be alternative solutions at times too. Feel free to comment and discuss. We will try our best to answer.
Errata:
Qn3 I misread it. Answer should be 2/3 and need not be evaluated.
Qn5i I copied wrongly off GC. answer should -3+4i. It shouldn’t affect the back parts.
Qn7 I copied wrongly off GC. So rounding off, the answers should α=1.885(3dp)
Advice and tips from Mr Teng for H2 Math exam 2014 paper 2
Please focus on tomorrow’s paper 2 and not let paper 1 affect you too much.
Errata:
Qn3 I misread it. Answer should be 2/3 and need not be evaluated.
Qn5i I copied wrongly off GC. answer should -3+4i. It shouldn’t affect the back parts.
Qn7 I copied wrongly off GC. So rounding off, the answers should α=1.885(3dp)
Much thanks for those that point it out.

Suggested answers to GCE O Level 2014 A. Math (4047) Paper 2
1(i) When t = 0, 20 + A = 80, so A must be equal to 60.
1(ii) k = 0.288 (to 3 SF)
1(iii) Since t > 3.82, it is safe to give the food 4 min after removal from the microwave.
———————————————————————————————————–
2(i) Remainder = – 12
2 (ii) f(-2) = 0, so (x+2) is a factor of f(x). Solving f(x) = 0, x = -2, 1/2 or 3.
———————————————————————————————————-
3(i) Length of rectangle = 9/2 + Sqrt(3)/6
3(ii) c = -1
———————————————————————————————————–
4(I) 2.25 4
(ii) 8x^2 + 5x + 64 = 0
———————————————————————————————————–
5(a) x^2 – 8x + 32 = 0. No real solution because discriminant is less than 0.
5(b) y = 1/x^2
———————————————————————————————————–
6(I) Use the fact that triangle ACE is isosceles and the alternate-segment theorem to state that angle ACE = angle ABC. Angle DEF = angle ECA + angle EAC.
6(ii) angle DFE = 2 x angle ACB.
6(iii) Use the fact that angle BAC = 180 deg – (angle BAF + angle CAE).
So 2 x (angle BAC) = 360 deg – 2(angle BAF + angle CAE).
———————————————————————————————————-
7(I) p = 3 and q = 2
7(ii) (a) increasing
7(ii) (b) decreasing
7(iii) It is a maximum point
7(iv) 0

Suggested answers to GCE O Level 2014 A. Math (4047) Paper 1
1. k = -2
2. sqrt(26)/26
3. 1.75
4. -3/x – 2/x^2 + 4/(x-2)
5(i) v = 0.263
5(ii) around v = 0.231
5(iii) around f = 0.120
6. (i) Remember that when there is a mixture of trigo functions which cannot fit into a single trigo identity, convert all the given trigo functions into sine and cosine. Start with the LHS, the more complicated expression. You will reach the key stage where
LHS = 1 / [(1 – sin^2@)/(sin@cos@)] = 1/ (cos^2@/sin@cos@) = 1/(cos@/sin@) = tan@
6(ii) acute angle, so @ = 1.05.
7(i) A = (h, 2h); B = (7h/4, 2h); C = (h, h/2)
7(ii) Area of trapezium = 21 sqr units.
8. Integrate f'(x) to get f(x) with a +c. Use f(pi/2) = 0 to get c = 1/4. Differentiate f'(x) to get f”(x)= 4cos4x + 2sin2x. Proceed to add f”(x) to 4f(x) to get the RHS.
9(i) Pure inequality question. Solve 2x^2 + 5x – 12 > 0 by sketching a quadratic graph. Ans: {x : x < -4 U x > 3/2}
9(ii) Show that the (b^2 – 4ac) of (4x^2 + 4x + 1 = 0) is zero.
9(iii) a = -1.
