The number of solutions was two as the two graphs intersected each other twice. And the question was x^2(x-2) so because the outside x is squared, it just touches the zero, comes back down, then up again through two.

Does anyone know how many marks for the question on sketching X^2 (X-2)

3 marks
Then one mark for saying how many real solutions it has!

Guys do you know for question 2, what was the set of values for x?

Sigh...do you really think edexcel would be so retarded that they allow international students to go on the internet and see other people talking about the exam? They have a different paper, and different grade boundaries.

It is, however, against forum rules so yeah, I'd advise people to stop talking about answers for now.

To be fair, Edexcel didn't introduce international papers until June 2013 haha.

TSR haven't caught up yet and changed the rules, that's why we're not allowed to discuss Edexcel exams on the same day.
