Scroll to see replies

In the two way table question, I left the information in the table, would I still get all the marks??

Hey, if anybody is willing to contribute the answers, and preferably the questions, then I shall set up a mark scheme for you all. Thanks in advance!

Can people please attach question numbers to their answers? Method would be appreciated.

This will be updated as I go along.

wouldn't 100-25pi cancel to 4-1pi

I found that the area of the bigger triangle was 1/4, and that the smaller triangle was sqrt(6)/12 but my final answer was wrong. Would I get method marks?


Yes it was out of 3 marks so you might get 2/3 idk

I don't know, I believe it asked for the answer in it's simplest form, therefore 25(4-pi) would be the only correct answer.




aww bullocks, thx anyway x
Could someone draw a sketch of the circle theorem question and the info given so I can see?

Does anyone have the marks for these questions and the grade boundaries please?

Not full marks. But you'd get marks for the working so you'll probably lose one mark on it, granted all the working is correct.

Question 6. A teacher is picked at random. 3/5 chance they are female. 36 are males. (3 marks)
How many teachers are there altogether?

2/5 of teachers are male. 36 are male.

2/5 of total = 36
2 x 18 = 36
18 x 2 = 90.
Answer is 90 teachers.


For this question, I thought it said how many teachers are female :zomg:
So I got 54...did anyone else make the same mistake?
Also because I mentioned 90 in my working out, do you think I'll get the mark?????? :frown:

For some questions I didn't write the answer on the dotted line however I underlined it in my working out. Will this be alright?


It depends on the examiner but they should still mark it, just make sure that it was the only underlined answer otherwise they will reject it

Yeah so did I!
What if you wrote 4% instead of 0.04 for probability?
