I think I did the simultaneous equation wrong I didn't halve it at the end but I had 4 and 12 for x and y.
And what did everyone had for the Upper and lower bound one?

I had the same for the simultaneous equations you needed to divide x by 2 and multiply y by 6 though. also for the bound one it was saying 15cm to the nearest 1cm what's the greatest perimeter of the square so 15.5 so the answer was 62

What did everyone have for the cone question

Radius = 8cm
pi x 8² + 1.25 x 8² x pi = 144pi

What did everyone get on the questions where you had to simplify an expression, and decide whether it was rational or not. I got 10, which is rational

For the upper and lower bounds it was 15.5 x 4 which gave you 62cm and you got the simultaneous equations one but did you do the bit where it said work out 1/2 kg of cherrys and 6kg of grapes which you should of got 30
