UNOFFICIAL MARKSCHEME Edexcel Maths Calculator paper 09/06/2016

Do u remember what the question was? Because I need help with that as well lol


Posted from TSR Mobile

can anyone please explain question on the fuel? i adding on the 2 journey to work and back and the parking fee but got something around 30?

Do you think I could get 3/6 marks if I only worked it out until the 40.0052 degrees part?

For the stratified sampling i rounded 10.8 to 10 instead of 11, will i lose a mark?

Wasn't the last question like 1/2 * 7 * 8 Sin(X) = 18


56Sin(x) = 36

Sin^-1(36/56) = X

x = 40

???

I think I did it wrong then.

Same, the paper was pretty easy but I did rush at the end

i did the exact same. do we atleast get a single mark?

Hi I'm going to start and unofficial markscheme so add your answers
Reps are not necessary but would be appreciated

Sorry for the hold up with the questions
1. Order numbers correctly and include a key (Stem and leaf) (3 marks)
b) 9/20=
0.45 (2 marks)
2a. 5a*2b*3c =
30abc (1 mark)
b. Factorise fully 3y +6 =
3(y+2) (1 mark)
c. Expand x(x-3)=
x^2-3x (1 mark)
3. Perimeter of a rectangle with side lengths x and x+4 is 45
x+x+x+4+x+4= 4x+8
4x+8=45
4x=37
x=9.25 (3 marks)
4. Smallest packet was best value for money because it was cheapest per bag of crisps (4 marks)
5. 4 times as many red than green: There were 0.4 blue and 0.15 yellow.
0.4+0.15+4x+x=1
0.55+5x=1
5x=0.45
x=0.09
4x=0.36
Green- 0.09 Red- 0.36 (3 marks)
6a. Body mass index= m/h^2
Mass= 50kg
Height= 1.57m

7. Trial and error. x^3-5x=34 with a number between 3 and 4
x^3-5x=34
3.7 gives you 32.153 which is too small
3.8 gives you 35.872 which is too big
So you go in the middle at 3.75 and if it is too big then its you go with the smaller option and viceversa so 3.75 gives you 33.984375 which is too small so you go for the larger option of 3.8
3.8 (4 marks)
