D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussion
Hi guys, I will do an unofficial mark scheme from what I can remember:
1.) draw network, then it was length 8 and a,c,e,g or something can't remember exactly but it had 4 arcs.
2.) relatively straightforward.
- application something to do with differentiation
-root 5 why is it included... not sure.
3.) For this graph theory question I can't remember exactly what I had but for part 2, i had one circle with a circle in it. and i had a little circle just touching the big circle.
4.)X = number of motors of type X made
etc
inequalities: there was one with x>5 and y>5 (greater than or equal to)
and 2 more i cant remember...
the max profit was where the two lines intersected.
for the last part the inequality changed and u just had to plot and give integer values.
5.) probably the hardest question, but bcoz it said 9 bags... u had to reject 9, and assign 0-7 to doubles and 8 to single.
You have to make your own simulations for day 4.
and i got 0.6 as final probability for last question.. i added all my probs up i had 4 (4/6) and one 2/6, then divide by 5.
6.) 14 minutes was min time, after you draw the network.. and critical activities i can't remember
1 dummy used for the initial drawing of the network
took 2 ppl to do it in min time
min time for one just add them all up 5.5 i think( excluding the 10 one h) or 15.5 if u add h on, question didn't really make it that clear.
and then u had to draw a critical network showing the 5.5 then the 10 then he 5.5 again and 10 three times...

Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussioncant remember sorry if you tell me more info then I can answer it.. did u get all my other answers?(Original post by Aaqil)
Q4) did you get 1750 or 1500 from the maximum profit -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official DiscussionI got 1450 vs 1500, 1500 was what I put down.(Original post by Aaqil)
Q4) did you get 1750 or 1500 from the maximum profit
For the last 2 parts of the last CPA question I got 46.5 and 26.5, I believe.
Overall the exam wasn't that bad, just the algorithm application in real life (what was that about??!) I didn't manage to answer. -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionye i got 46.5 and 26.5 yes.. did u get 0.6 for probability thing on simulations(Original post by Naum)

Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussiondid you get my answers for the rest?(Original post by Laura5494)
When i drew the second activity on arc network i got a value of 35.5 minutes to complete the baking of three buns.... :/
But yes I got 26.5 for the last part. -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official DiscussionI got £1500 for the maximum profit in the first bit, but when the constraint changed to 10x+12y<180, I got the maximum profit as £1450, with x=11 and y=5(Original post by sreddy17)
did you get my answers for the rest? -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionye ok did u get 0.6 for simulations or what(Original post by Laura5494)

Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussion1 dummy(Original post by Sufian_TRP)
Were there any dummies in Q6?? -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionwhat did u get for simulations question(Original post by Bennyboy260692)
I meant to bring this paper home so I could upload to here for people to see, but they gave me an S2 paper when I asked at the end -.- -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionu have to reject 9 because there are 9 bags and u have 10 numbers!! do u get me?(Original post by Laura5494)
No i didn't. I didn't know how to start with the first rule. I wasn't sure whether to use 8/9 and 1/9 or 4/5 and 1/5 because the bags were connected together... :/
So i ended up getting an overall probability of a half which I am pretty sure is wrong
-
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionpretty sure its just the 1(Original post by It's Jo :))
I got 3 dummies... -
Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionand the question said each of the 9 bags has an equal probability(Original post by Laura5494)
No i didn't. I didn't know how to start with the first rule. I wasn't sure whether to use 8/9 and 1/9 or 4/5 and 1/5 because the bags were connected together... :/

Re: D1 Ocr Mei June 2012 Official Discussionon day 2 there were 9 bags right? if each has an equal probability then u must assign 0-7 to double and 8 to single bags. and reject 9 do u get that?(Original post by Laura5494)
Yes but 8 of the bags were connected. Thats what confused me. So overall there were 5 sets of bags.
Ahh i flopped it :/
oh dont worry it will be fine
