(a) H is the point (-7, 4) and HJ = (10, -6)
- (a)(i)Calculate the magnitude of HJ.[2]
- (a)(ii)Given that HK = 3HJ, find the coordinates of point K.[2]
- (b)(i)Express, as simply as possible, in terms of p and/or q (i) OC,[1]
- (b)(ii)AX,[2]
- (b)(iii)EX.[2]

Mark scheme
Marking points from the official mark scheme (Oct/Nov 2020). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.
- [2] M1 for sqrt(10² + (-6)²) oe; Final answer 11.7 or 11.66... .
- [2] B1 for one coordinate correct; or for (30, -18) seen (vector HK); After 0 scored, SC1 for (-14, 23); Final answer (23, -14).
- [1] 4p + q.
- [2] B1 for BX = 3/5 q or XB = -3/5 q; or M1 for a correct route along the lines of the diagram; Final answer 3p + 2/5 q oe.
- [2] B1 for CX = -2/5 q or XC = 2/5 q; or M1 for a correct route along the lines of the diagram; Final answer 4p - 2/5 q oe.
