Okay can i just say, is it just me or was todays paper the easitst one i have ever seen. It was mostly just small marks questions however doesnt mean we can still sit back and relax. Paper 2 and 3 might not be as easy unno...
I'm currnelty resisting maths after getting a 3 in gcse last year but i'm oping for the best and most of all keep going!!

What did you get for the value of k for the last question?

The 5 marker?

It's wrong, i assume you did the working up until rt 121 and said it was +11. However this creates a negative gradient with the other point so it can't be that. What also equals to rt 121 is -11, which DOES form a positive gradient as required in the question. The gradient ends up being 3 and the y-intercept is then -5, which is the correct answer
