This is a contribution to Performance Tables. You can ignore it.

I also got 45, what do you mean by 'contribution to Performance Tables' ? I'm so confused

Didn't you notice the "ignore it" bit?

Schools are judged by Performance Tables - each qualification contributes points towards them. Parents and students can then use them to compare different institutions by looking at the points per candidate and points per entry. Ofsted use them too.

Well done all.

13. (i) $5x+6y \leq 60$ and $4x+3y \leq 36$ (3 marks)

(ii) Plot inequalities (4 marks)

(iii) $V=3.5X+3Y$ and 33 cubic metres (5 marks)


)

sorry if being thick here, I have not done this since o level many years ago


I get

5(4)+6(20/3)<=60
4(4)+3(20/3)<=36
so
(4,20/3) satisfies all inequalities and

3.5(4)+3(20/3)=34

so is this not the max?

Hi Mr M, have you got the actual paper, please? thanks

For question 4i) you'll get 2 out of 4 most probably
9ii) you will get either 2 or 3 out of 4, depending on whether you put in tan-1(3) (i think that's what it was) as well as tan-1(-1) (might be the other way round)
for 13i) you will still get full marks
and yes, 68(circa) will most definitely be an A. it was an exceedingly hard paper; the hardest paper so far is june 2012, where the grade boundary for an A is 64. This paper was much harder than that; so assuming that the grade boundary will be the same, or even lower, you will have scored an A most definitely
