Who got t= 5x + 20 y


Yeah I got that :smile:)

No that's the probability that it wasn't going to rain AND it get's cancelled, or the other way around. It was 0.8*0.95 though.


ah **** i thought it said does rAIN and get cancelled ****

Questionnaire question-
Wants to know how many crisps people buy
His question-
How often do you buy crisps?
Choices were- often, sometimes and never

What is two things wrong with this question?(2)
Design a suitable question(2)
He asked people in his maths class why may this not be a good sample?(1)
Is there a google doc being uploaded or are people literally just writing their answers on here? I can't see an attachment. If there is how do I download it?

Think u got 18a). Wrong I got 2 and a fraction because it was 15 then tines that by 2 reminder what u minus

Yes the mixed fraction should be 2 12/15, that's what I did at least.

Yes I got that too

It must be in exact form which just means surds. It doesn't need to be an integer value.


I managed to wipe out all of my surds because of using Pythagoras multiple times… slightly concerned but it was only 3 marks I guess ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

For the question with the answer 10-5m, is it wrong to put 5(2-m)?

What is two things wrong with this question?(2) options were vague and biased question

What was the question that had 60 as the answer? Dw if you cant rememeber i was jw


Probability was 0.05 because they gave us a value of 0.95

Posted from TSR Mobile[ I got the method marking right I think I just got the mixed fraction wrong so you are probs right ]

I did 0.8 x 0.95 and got 75% as my answer. Was that right???

What about that probability one about Dan: I got 69, I had to work backwards🙃

Why would you use pythagorus for area?
Pretty sure the shaded region question was 100-25π .. anyone else get that?

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


Can't the question about point S also be about how S splits the line OT into the ratio 3:1 (i think it's line OT, cant remember which line. i mean the one that we hadn't already been told about by the paper)

The question said "what is the probability it does NOT rain, AND it gets cancelled" though? So it was 0.8*0.05=0.04
Can anyone write down the marks with the questions pls so i know what marks I think I got?

0.76

8 x 90 + 8 x 5 then divide by 1000

as you're doing 8/10 * 95/100 = 760/1000

I got 72 for circle there on I think

Same :biggrin: Somewhat reassuring, but loads of people at my school seemed to get 69
