Anyone got an idea what the boundary will be for 90ums? I'm hoping 68
Can we start compiling a list of questions, then we can solve them again
1) Integrate ?
2) Differentiate where x=4 root(x) +1/(4root(x)) +4
3) a1=1, an+1 = k(an+1)/2 Sum to a3 = 10
4a) Week 1 = 140 Week 12 = 206 Find d
b) Stays at 206, find sum of 52 weeks
5) y=2^x, 2^(2x+1) + 17(2^x) + 10?=0 find x
6) y= x^2 -8x+19, Find min and y intercept, and distance between these points
7)
8a) P=(5,y) l1: 5y=4x+10 l2 is perpendicular at p, find l2
b) Find area of triangle with P, and x intercepts of l1 and l2
9a) Draw graphs of y=3x+c and y=1/x+5
b) 2 separate intersection points, find equation for c
c) Solve to find range of values for c
10a) f(x) = ? Find k in f(x)+k when curve passes through origin
b) f(x+c) find c where min is at origin
c)?
How many marks was 8?
got 15226 for number of bicycles

Ill stick to trapping


Trapping puts food on the table

Question said that from week 12 onwards they produced the same number of bikes each week. Your method would be correct if they continued to produce a greater number of bikes on a weekly basis.


Yes, I edited my comment now that i realise my mistake.

Not a fun way to find out I lost a few marks not reading the question.

brb crying.


Hopefully you get method marks :smile:
Mark breakdown would be really useful...
Original post by Redcoats
1) +C
2)a=1/16
3) a2 = 2k
a3 = k+1/2
k=17/6
4) d=6
10316 total
5) x=3 and x=-1
6) (x-4)^2+3
Minimum point at (4,3) intercept at (0,19)
PQ : 4sqrt(17) units
7)
8) 5x-4y-49=0
Area = 369/10
9) line theough (0,C)
Asymptote at y= 5
equate and disciminant greater than 0
c<5-2sqrt(3) and c> 5+sqrt(3)
10) k = 75
c = 5/2
just differentiate
x = -5/3

(some questions might be missing; reply with edits)


what was question 2 about? i cant remember
How many marks was the area question worth, can anyone remember?

na just ran it through with calculator we got all method marks for sure we just made small mistake with denominators answer was 369/10


Yeah I literally just realised too 😩 Oh well. Weren't worth many marks
Do you know how it feels to be told you have loads of time at the end to reflect on your answers in a C1 paper, and then having the confidence to skip them out with the "I'll come back to that" philosophy, and then been made a victim by the traitorous villains who spout these lies as you look up at the clock with 4 questions either partially or completely empty with 15 minutes to fill them in? Do you? I SURE DO. IT FEELS LIKE A TRIPLE VASECTOMY PREFORMED BY A DOG WITH RUSTY CORKSCREWS AS CANNINES WHEN YOU HAVENT BEEN ANAESTHETIZED AND YOU HAVE A POWERFUL HALLUCINOGEN THAT TRANSFORMS THE PHYSICAL PAIN INTO EMOTIONAL TERROR. DO YOU FEEL THAT? I DO.

wanted 100%, pretty annoyed hahahaha

Ur wet smh
Original post by C1pisstake
Just seen the mark scheme turns out I didn't get 100%🤣

There's a 100% chance ur skeleton is getting touched
Original post by ladyclaudia97
how did you get 10316??? i did 52/2(140+140+51(6)) for the total number of bikes?


That's wrong, as the production continued at 206 a week from week 12
What is question 7?
Guys what if u get k= -75

Original post by Bobrocket
f(x) = (2x-5)^2 * (x+3)
f(0) = (2(0)-5)^2 * (0+3)
= (-5)^2 * (3)
= 25 * 3 = 75
Therefore f(0) - k = 0, 75 - k = 0 => k = 75.


You're completely right. I don't understand where I got 225 from... either I'm mixing it up with something else or I made a silly mistake. Most I dropped would be a mark or so. What did you get for c in Q7?
Original post by Pedaly7
I think your answer to question 3 is wrong. For a3 i got 2k^2+k
And so my k was different k=3/2


a3 = k(2k + 1)/2k
a3 = 2k^2 + k/2k
Divide by k
a3 = 2k + 1/2
Which could also be written as k + 1/2

When you sub that into the equation I got 17/6. So I think thats right
