AQA Mathematics MD01 Decision 1 – Friday 24th June [Exam Discussion Thread]

Did anyone else get P=£515 for the last question? I think I got X=21 and y=10, which gave £515

Cheers. Wasn't it 2x≥y though?

The question said "x is atleast twice as many as y" which I'm sure is x ≥ 2y. So if for example y is 50 then x is 100, which is twice as many.

Nah cause it said X had to be at least twice at large as y

ahhhh i see thx.

so i plotted 2x>y but got the correct subsequent x and y values (24 and 8) and correct profit

how many marks do u think I dropped?
M1 for wrong line
A1 for wrong feasible region?

I got that too, was your x = 24 and y = 8?

I'm looking at the June 2015 paper and from the looks of it you probably lost only 2 (B1) marks, which is fine.

EDIT oh yeah another for getting the inequality wrong for the question before lol

Calm ur tits you penguin virgin i bet you couldnt even get a ***** on bin weevils

Did anyone get £505 for the last question

I did and someone else earlier in the thread did but apparently it's wrong, should've been £520 or something.


I assume it will carry ft marks though for reading the wrong points...maybe...I didn't look at Decision mark schemes a lot before the exam

any *UMS ideas for 65 raw?

I got £505 too, the last section was 3 marks so we should pick up atleast 1 ft mark.

That's not too bad then. I did a rough count up assuming I'd got that wrong and I had about 61/62...but I was incredibly harsh on myself so that's a worst case scenario.

I really need an A but after how abysmal core 3 was I highly doubt it.

The question said "x is atleast twice as many as y" which I'm sure is x ≥ 2y. So if for example y is 50 then x is 100, which is twice as many.

Core 3 will be low dw Literally no-one I asked found it easy and twitter was going mental. 60 was an A last year so you should safely by around an A boundary, even if it goes up by 1 or two marks which it most likely will.
