How many marks would I lose if I did the long division incorrect. Second part finding the normal equation was reliant on first part :frown:

You will probably lose 1-2 marks..you'll receive mostly method marks

Its okay you will receive method marks. They award marks if you use the right method but carry an error forward. Just as long as you've got your method right, you'll defo receive decent amount of marks

Will I only lose 1 mark to putting 2 and not 1/2 on q 5 ii
How many working marks do you think i would get on Q2b.) for finding a range using an incorrect dy/dx found in part a? and how many marks would i loose on question 9c.) for leaving as T= -5ln(1/2/(1+e^-1))
Can anybody remember the questions for 5i and ii?

Nope it was 1/2.


i disagree
from what I can see...I got 66/75 - an A* do we think - or just under? Doesn't matter to an extent because I always knew I'd have to well in C4 for an A* but yeah would be nice to have some sort of idea

For question 2 thought it wanted dy/dx<0.
Original post by chloeabeki
wasn't it between pi and -pi? or was it pi/2?


Pretty sure was -pi/2 and pi/2
what were the marks for each Q?

Wasn't 5 i 0.25arctan(0.75)? Which is around 0.1608 in radians?

It did. dy/dx is positive from -sqrt(5) to sqrt(5)
