oh sorry man, that was my last grain!


oh the service is just ghastly nowadays. don't worry I have amazon prime, free next day delivery !
What did you get for the solving equation question? Something starting with xsquared = .....

There are people on this forum who have not yet sat this exam. Some may be asking to confirm questions and answers only to get the questions and answers for when they sit it later today.The grades will rise if you give answers on here. Do not jeopardise your grade by giving answers until tomorrow.


No there are not - everyone sits the examination in the morning and everyone sitting this exam will have of finished it by now.

@TheOtherSide It's fine to discuss this exam today! Edexcel have made sure that all international students are sitting it at the same time throughout their different time zones :h: so chat away!

What percentage will he spend on rent now that question
Damn I got that standard form one VERY wrong...
Also for the one asking about the quadratic where the -2 had changed to -6, was it not just X=2 as it was the vertex of the curve?
And will it matter if I wrote 12/15 instead of 4/5? As it didn't specifically ask for simplest form

Sorry for all the questions!

i got 36%, wbu?

Q1 750cm^3
Q2 too vague and no timeframe
The class is a small sample/biased
Q3 p^7
g^2
k^6
10-5m
n(n-7)
45
90
No not enough varnish cos she needs 50cm^2 but has 37.5cm^2
60
T=5x+20y
(-3,-2)
11 females
100-25pi
36%
I compared median, IQR and range
150
7x10^8
X<7
7/5
2 4/5 in mixed fraction form
4/5
x=-0.4 and 4.4
X=-1.1 and 5.1
X=-1.7 and 4.7
Angle MST 69
Probability is 0.04
X=2&6
a+b
-a+3b
3/4(a+b) for vector
Point s is on both lines and it is point where they intersect
100,25,4
Final questions is (3-root6)/12


do you reckon you would drop a mark for not putting +- 2 and 6?

I got 1cm for the last question oh well
Also I thought the circle theorem question was an alternate angle question?

I think the envelope question was T= 5x + 20y but I have no idea why it was 3 marks


I think alternate segment could have been applied for the circle theorem but I didn't use it. My answer was 69 degrees. Alternate angles tend to be part of parallel lines.

The envelope question is bugging me to. I put the same as you but I think it's wrong. Surely it cannot be worth 3 marks?
For the last question, I got 1/4 - root 6/12 but this can be written as one fraction. So simplify 3/12 - root 6/12 = 3-root6
______
12

People in other regions of the World have not sat this exam yet, hence my comments

i got this too, but then i was talking to people after the exam and apparently it wasn't a right angled triangle? so that could be wrong?
damn i did so gd looooool

Hey, if anybody is willing to contribute the answers, and preferably the questions, then I shall set up a mark scheme for you all. Thanks in advance!

Can people please attach question numbers to their answers? Method would be appreciated.

Is the 60 answer supposed to be the percentage that Ali's rent increased? I bloody hope so, lol
