    This document contains 4 questions about inequalities for a Year 1 Core Physics exam. Question 1 asks students to solve the inequality x^2 - x > 20 using algebra and set notation. Question 2 asks students to prove certain inequalities are true for positive values of x and y, but not for negative values. Question 3 involves showing an inequality is always true and determining if another statement about adding a number and squaring is always, sometimes, or never true. Question 4 asks students to use inequalities to define a shaded region R on a graph bounded by a quadratic curve and line, given information about the curve.

    Q4.

    Figure 1 shows a sketch of a curve C with equation y = f(x) and a straight line l.

    The curve C meets l at the points (−2, 13) and (0, 25) as shown.

    The shaded region R is bounded by C and l as shown in Figure 1.

    Given that

    • f(x) is a quadratic function in x


    • (−2, 13) is the minimum turning point of y = f(x)

    use inequalities to define R.
