    struggled on a few qs like the ksin(theta) thing didnt have a clue so thought I'll make them into simultaneous equations as 2 variables kinda thing :/ I think fairly straight forward paper over all but some of my answers seemed wrong but method marks hopefully. CORE 4

    I made so many stupid mistakes. In the Rates of change question my differentiation was wrong which just threw the whole question off. Also, in the last question I thought it was a revolution round the x axis when the question said y so I didn't do that either.

    If you got part 9(ii) marginally wrong, are you likely to get follow through marks for part 9(iii)? If so how many?

    What did people get for the question where you had to find K and c? I ended up getting something like 0.0295 and 38 which im guessing is completely wrong!!

    I thought it was an alright paper, found it all pretty straight forward about from the c and k one, i attempted it and im guessing you get simulataneous inequalities? i have no idea but i hope i get 1 or 2 marks for that. the rest was quite easy
