can anyone remember the breakdown of marks for question 7?

Atleast I'm not the only one with £500

Good haha I don't remember how many marks it was worth but I think there will be a method mark for subbing whatever values of x and y you got into the objective function. How did you find the rest of the paper? :smile:
Probably be about 62 for an A
Loved that exam :biggrin:, however D2 might just be hell after this :redface:

I am thinking high grade boundaries - maybe even 67/75 for an A (this has happened before in FP1, I think a similar thing might happen for D1).

67 wow haha! I'll be surprised if it is but yeah it was quite an easy paper so definitely above 60

Yeah same I found the whole paper quite decent but dropped quite a few silly marks.

67? Na man, I'd say 64 max looool 67 would be ridiculous

Think I got about 67 out of 75 and hoping thats high 80s or around 90 UMS :frown:

it sure does... i typod it. in the exam i put £515

i dont know how people are getting x=24 y=8 its not the same objective line.

objective line was y=-(3/4)x

Objective line doesn't matter tho it's about the intersection between two f the condition lines

If I messed up on 15-20 marks anyone think that could be a B

I found this to be a tad easier than June 2014 which was 61 for an A... doubt it'd be 6 marks higher. About 62 would be a reasonable guess.

If you lost 15 it would definitely be a B and probably just short of an A. If you lost 20 it would probably be about B boundary.

I've gotten so used to further maths grade boundaries loosing 15-20 marks in one of the further exams normally means your ****ed

Naa thought it was horrible LOL, think I got about 50 because of the bloody 10 marker lmao. And nah not doing m2
How did everyone do the last question? I couldn't figure out how to write the equations. Was so difficult compared to all the other graph theory questions :/

iirc these were the inequalities:

x 5
y 5
x + y 32
2x + 3y 72
x 2y


Cheers. Wasn't it 2x≥y though?
