Let (x, y) be the coordinates of P.

x2 – 24x + 144 + y2 – 30y + 225 = 169

x2 + y2 – 24x – 30y + 200 = 0
The equation of G is x2 + y2 – 24x – 30y + 200 = 0.

14. (a) Note that f (–4) = –64a – 16b + 32 and f (4) = 64a – 16b + 32.
Since f (–4) = –f (4), we have b = 2. 1M
By comparing the constant terms, we have
32 = 2n
n = 16 1A
By comparing the coefficients of x, we have

 (b) (i) g (x) = hx3 + kx2, where h and k are non-zero constants.
So, we have 8h + 4k = 16 and –h + k = 1. 1M
Solving, we have h = 1 and k = 2.
g (x) = x3 + 2x2 1A
(ii) f (x) = g (x)
(x + 2)(3x – 8x + 16) = x3 + 2x2

(x + 2)(3x2 – 8x + 16) = x2(x + 2)

(x + 2)(2x2 – 8x + 16) = 0
x + 2 = 0 or 2x2 – 8x + 16 = 0
(–8)2 – 4(2)(16) 1M
= –64
<0
The quadratic equation 2x2 – 8x + 16 = 0 does not have real roots. 1A
Hence, the equation f (x) = g (x) has only one real root.
The claim is agreed. 1A

The range of the distribution exceeds 19 kg.
