For the floor vanishing question was it 7.5 x 5 = 35.5 ?? I got 35.5 and said it wasn't enough

Midpoint. I am so confused as to how that is the answer and not 3,4.75?

Because you are trying to find the midpoint not Q... I think!

25(4-π) maybe?

It does, however you don't need to apparently according to that teachers unofficial mark scheme.

For the question about the tiles I did a completely different method that everyone I've spoke to and came to the conclusion that :
No. because she has enough to cover 37.5m^2 but needs to cover 50m^2 so she's 12.5m^2 short
DID ANYONE GET ANYTHING SIMILAR // know if I will get any marks? I was pretty confident on that question lol

lol, that's what i put too im sure we would at least get full method marks

Is it okay that i wrote 100TT cm^2 - TT25 cm^2 instead of 100TT cm^2 -25 TTcm^2

And I thought this was meant to be in a %age of the entire £800 and not just the rent though i probably just misread lol

Apparently its T = 5x + 20y.

I think i put T = x + 4y, which is the simplified form of 5x + 20y. Is that wrong?

I did not sit the paper - I will need the question information to be able to give you an answer.

Give me answer to the following question
Workout total number of teachers when the probability for female teacher is 3/5 and there are 36 male teachers? It would be my pleasure if u do that

How were we meant to do the distribution of the box plots question? I basically filled the whole space with writing, comparing range, IQ range and median. Were we supposed to work anything out??

You got the right points :smile:

You literally just have to write:

•

range is greater for 18 year olds than 16 year olds

•

interquartile range ""

•

median is lower for 16 year olds than 18 year olds

Am I right in saying that questions 8,9 and 12 are missing from this mark scheme?

8 isn't anymore. 12 is bisectors, so a little harder to put in, but I'm working on it.

Does anyone know if it's possible to do the varnishing floor question with a different method to this mark scheme because I'm pretty sure I got it right but remember doing it differently

Posted from TSR Mobile

If you got the right answer, then normally in the mark scheme, they count all marks, so I wouldn't worry! :smile:
