  1. Please check the examination details below before entering your candidate information Candidate surname Pearson Edexcel Centre Number Other names Candidate Number International Advanced Level Tuesday 8 January 2019 Morning (Time: 1 hour 30 minutes) Mathematics Advanced Subsidiary Pure Mathematics PI You must have: Paper Reference WMAl 1101 Total Marks Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables (Lilac), Calculator Candidates may use any calculator allowed by the regulations of the Joint Council for Qualifications. Calculators must not have the facility for symbolic algebra manipulation, differentiation and integration, or have retrievable mathematical formulae stored in them. Instructions Use black ink or ball-point pen. If pencil is used for diagrams/sketches/graphs it must be dark (HB or B). Fill in the boxes at the top of this page with your name, centre number and candidate number. Answer all questions and ensure that your answers to parts of questions are clearly labelled. Answer the questions in the spaces provided — there may be more space than you need. You should show sufficient working to make your methods clear. Answers without working may not gain full credit. Inexact answers should be given to three significant figures unless otherwise stated. Information • A booklet 'Mathematical Formulae and Statistical Tables' is provided. There are 12 questions in this question paper. The total mark for this paper is 75. • The marks for each question are shown in brackets — use this as a guide as to how much time to spend on each question. Advice • Read each question carefully before you start to answer it. • Try to answer every question. • Check your answers if you have time at the end. • If you change your mind about an answer, cross it out and put your new answer and any working underneath.
