How was the higher paper?
I will be interested to know from students on high B, hoping to perhaps get an A

you were supposed to draw the line y=4 then see where they intersect, but i instead moved the entire graph down by 4 then measured where it intersected y=0

do you think that will still be correct


idk what your tallking about. Im talking about the ones where you had to take out the compass and draw the lines and ****

Pretty easy, going to be high grade boundaries.
I got the 4=(X+3)^2 or whatever it was question wrong, but I expanded them properly and all that stuff it's just my factorisation and answer that was wrong how many marks will I get?

Depends on how many marks, presuming it was ~4, You'd probably get 2/4
It was a right angled triangle with the sides attaching to the right angle both being 'square root 2' / 2. Then a shaded portion inside the right angles triangle making a thin triangle on the hypotenuse if that makes sense. The length of the side minus the base of the shaded triangle was 'square root 3' /3. Then it asked for the exact area of the shaded triangle.
does anyone remember the marks for each question?
think I lost more than 20marks

Not necessarily

Hey, if anybody is willing to contribute the answers, and preferably the questions, then I shall set up a mark scheme for you all. Thanks in advance!

Can people please attach question numbers to their answers? Method would be appreciated.

This will be updated as I go along.

You know question 14 - the one that was 100-25π - the question said leave your answer in its simplest form. I'm just wondering, were we supposed to put 25(4-π) ? Or is it "simpler" to put 100-25π ? :smile:
Is it for question3 if i answered, some people may interpret answers as being different from others and some people may never eat crips.
Area of prism 750 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Wasn't the probability tree 0.8 x 0.95? Some people are saying 0.8 and 0.04?
Can someone remind me what Q18 was?
