I checked it on the calculator and it is the right value.

i got that too
Y=-7/30x +1.7
Just put into desmos and is correct

yeah same, I checked too
Omg I leave it as In(3/2)^4 +7/6 would this affect my marks?

U will drop 1

They wanted it in the form 81/16 so probably only lose 1 mark

I got the mean as 22.7 for the one where u had to use simultaneous eqs I think but I got standard dev first so maybe I put it back in wrong ??

What did people get for the question about Jamal the farmer?


There was a positive correlation so we reject H0 and accept H1

That’s sad😖😖
What did u do for the prove no stationary point one

dy/dx = 0, got x = -0.5y^2 or something like that, subbed back in then got an equation with no real roots

I did contradiction but idk

As long as you’ve categorically proved what they’ve asked you to you’re fine. I also did contradiction and used Pythag with algebra to show that if all were odd a^2+b^2=c^2 came out to be even=odd. This is an impossibility and so there is a contradiction, therefore a b and c cannot all be odd.
Yes I did that, and got like y^6=-48 which is obviously impossible

I personally just showed that for there to be a stationary point, y=root(-2x), separated this out into root(-2) * root(x). As root(-2) is undefined, there cannot be a stationary point.

Did anyone notice that the table of probability (with 120 teachers) did not add up to 120 but rather added up to 114???
Reply 78
yeah but if x was negative, say -2 then y would be defined?

Would u think that the grade boundary will go down/up this year?
