  1. Linear equations · 3 marks

    Solve \(5 - 2(3 - x) = 4x - 9\)

    Worked answer
    1. Expand: 5 − 6 + 2x = 4x − 9, so −1 + 2x = 4x − 9.
    2. Add 9 and subtract 2x: 8 = 2x.
    3. x = 4.

    Answer: \(x = 4\)

  2. Graphs · 4 marks

    A line \(L\) has equation \(2y = 6x + 8\).

    (a) Find the gradient of \(L\).

    (b) Write down the coordinates of the point where \(L\) crosses the \(y\)-axis.

    (c) Does the point \((3, 13)\) lie on \(L\)? Show how you decide.

    Worked answer
    1. Divide by 2 to get y = mx + c: y = 3x + 4.
    2. (a) The gradient is 3.
    3. (b) The y-intercept is (0, 4).
    4. (c) When x = 3, y = 9 + 4 = 13, so (3, 13) is on L.

    Answer: (a) \(3\) (b) \((0, 4)\) (c) Yes, \(3 \times 3 + 4 = 13\)

  3. Transformation geometry · 1 marks

    A translation maps the point \(A(2, 3)\) to the point \(A'(-1, 7)\).

    Write down the column vector of the translation.

    Worked answer
    1. The x-coordinate changes by −1 − 2 = −3.
    2. The y-coordinate changes by 7 − 3 = 4.

    Answer: \(\begin{pmatrix} -3 \\ 4 \end{pmatrix}\)

What this paper covers

Both Foundation tier papers can test the whole 4MA1 specification at Foundation level:

We haven't mapped this paper question by question yet, so here are our revision units for the whole specification. Each opens the practice for that unit.

Formula booklet

International GCSE Mathematics A formulae sheet (Higher tier) · Pearson Edexcel · 4MA1 specification, Appendix 5 (current)

4MA1 has no separate booklet: the Higher tier formulae sheet is printed inside every exam paper and in Appendix 5 of the specification (the link).

Questions students ask

Where is the June 2025 Paper 1F mark scheme?

The mark scheme button above opens Pearson's own copy.

What are the grade boundaries for 4MA1 June 2025?

Pearson publishes the official boundaries for every series on its grade boundaries page (opens in a new tab). They are set for the qualification (both papers together), so we link there rather than quote them.

What is the difference between 1F and 1FR?

R papers are the version sat in some time zones. They follow the same specification, length and mark scheme style, so both are good practice.
