Given that 0 ln k e 2 x d x = 12 , find the value of k .

Markscheme / solution

1 2 e 2 x seen       (A1)

attempt at using limits in an integrated expression ( [ 1 2 e 2 x ] 0 ln k = 1 2 e 2 ln k 1 2 e 0 )         (M1)

= 1 2 e ln k 2 1 2 e 0        (A1)

Setting their equation  = 12        M1

Note: their equation must be an integrated expression with limits substituted.

1 2 k 2 1 2 = 12        A1

( k 2 = 25 ) k = 5        A1

Note: Do not award final A1 for  k = ± 5 .
