Yo so I got the method right for the 8 marker but I made a mistake near the end and couldn't find it so my answer wasn't correct. How many marks will I lose?

i found it ok, some questions were easy and some were difficult. Like an idiot I mind blanked on the exponential. Did the integration on the last question but got 3/4 on inside of ln but didn't convert to ln3-ln4 (2ln2). Series was ok, and proof I might have messed up the n squared - 2.

Same mind blanked when I got ln(3/4) was thinking how to get to ln2 directly from that ffs

What did you get for a and b?

That wasn't that hard tbh. Just had to do partial fractions then it was so easy to integrate it.

I ran out of time so I couldn't integrate it RIP was the partial fractions 2.4 and -3.5?

Same😭 a lot of people from my school found it really hard so my only hope now is for the grade boundaries to be lower!

Sub in the x and y coordinate they gave you then re arrange for p

Put in the coordinates from the point you're given, put in your value for q and rearrange so you end up with a fraction with a p term on the top and a q term on the bottom that equals 1. As they equal 1, equate numerator and denominator and you'll find p.

Counted marks I missed...54...im failing. Everytime I started doing a question I skipped parts I found were hard or would take too long...and that cost me dearly...I know we have 2 papers left but...based on last years grade boundaries, I'll need 2 A's to get a B overall, and well...thats not happening.
