Original post by LogicalFallacy

That was correct.

I put 750cm2 do you think they will give 2 marks instead of three or none ?

How many marks do you think I can pick up for working out on questions 25 (inverse proportion which I got the wrong answers for) and question 26 (got all the working but wrote a different answer :frown:

)?

You'll get 2 marks, stating the units of measurement was pretty important, probably easiest 3 mark question I've ever seen O.o

Did get get the constant as 100? if not then 0/4

for question 26 1 mark for working out the area of big triangle, 1 mark for small triangle and 1 mark for correct final answer.

If I got 84-90 marks (min-max), how many do I need in the calculator paper, to secure an A*? Thanks

With the question that said write a suitable question for the crips etc, would this get full marks:

How many times a week do you buy crisps?

0-3 , 4-7, 7-11, >11

Thank You

Incorrect.

X = 5+x/2 = 1

5+x = 2

x = -3

Y = 7+y/2 = 2.5

7+y = 5

y = -2

Final coordinates are -3,-2

Nope, I only realised at the very end (before I could change) anything that k=100 which isn't much use but I wrote the formula for y = k / x2 - idk if that will get me any marks.

I think I got 2/3 marks for the last question.

If what you're saying is true then I am looking at 93 marks!! (Which is pretty decent but I'll be aiming for higher in the calculator)

Can you explain your reasoning, as to where I went wrong. If I have remembered the co-ordinates correctly, then I am correct. Were the co-ordinates not (1,2.5 and 5,7) and we were asked to find the mid-point? In this case, I am correct; so I must have misread the question?
