What did people get for the miles question?

like 110.2 or something lol
1. For the miles between Pertrol station and berlin i got 200km or something

It was where 1 mile = 1.6km

he drove 25 miles? 25x 1.6km = 40km

so 240km - 40km = 200km

What did you guys get for the similtanious equations?

I ended up getting x=5 and y=-3
also what did you get for the mean age of girls?

I messed up so badly. didnt finish and cpuldnt focus. fuuuuucccckkkkkk. want to die.
Trying to remember more stuff of what i wrote, mhm. (Everyone reading this pop your answers) so we can make a mark scheme out of all the answers that are right.

for the distance between sun and neptune i got 4.5

for the probability of shapes i got

52/72 (Once again not entirely sure)
There also was a question about the pond, what did people get in that? I dont remember the answer which i wrote down

I was so stuck on that question, I think i got 28 x 3 from somewhere and then 9 bags. god knows
Yeah I got the distance for Neptune 4.5 km too but the last question was so weird
Was it not 0.25, -1, 1,
Because any power to 0=1
And any power to 1 equals itself😷.
Unless I got it wrong. ****.

Mhm, any power to 0 does equal 1. but a power to -1 literally means

1 over 2, as the x was 2^-1 which means it 1/2 = 0.5
