C1 question 9

Hi, if i did question 9 wrong as putting in the wrong n as i completely forgot that he is already 10 years old, then how many marks would i lose, i only did part b and c wrong. I did the right formula and everything, just the n'th term i put wrong, hopefully i get some marks out xD

You should receive some marks for partly answering the question however, having said that if you didn't follow through with the correct value of n then you will not receive additional marks but we should all remain optimistic :smile: if the mark scheme contains similar calculations to yours then the examiners will you give some method marks.
