I forgot to put +c for the final answer but I had it in my previous steps (before simplifying). Do you think I will still lose the mark?

It depends on the state of your working. The official line on this is all the components have to be correctly written in a single expression. Now, if you had the +c on a line with everything integrated correctly, you might just get the accuracy mark. It's a close thing though.

for question 5 i graphed the inequality. But since i had originally thought the surd was larger, i graphed 3-2r2 as a negative value, but i got the final possible values correct. Would i lose a mark?
what grade would be 65-66%?? Low B or high C?

I don't think you would lose a mark for that. Whether you graphed it on the positive x side or the negative, the possible set of values still must be smaller than 3-2sqrt2.
Some people don't even use the graph method, some just picture it in their head:smile:
What grade is 50/75 and how many UMS? I did so bad in that paper

Sick :biggrin: I got 71 min. 73 max. Made some of the most stupid mistakes ever but should still be decent UMS :biggrin:


i think i made the most stupid mistake by totally forgetting to calculate x in the question "express in terms of y blah blah blah" XDD

A tip for the future, if you ever need it. The y intercept for that line was +1 if you remember. So if it was on the negative side, there would be no way it could cut the y intercept on. If you get what I mean :biggrin:

Any predictions for grade boundaries Arsey? I figured 59-61 for an A, sound reasonable?

Also, question 5 a, I didn't start out with b^2 - 4ac < 0. I started with > 0. How many marks would I have lost? I ended up with the right answer, I think.

Probably 1 mark
