The x coordinates were from the first part of the question, but I didn't work out the y coordinates, just placed them randomly. I also thought about integrating, but I don't think you could as you don't know the value of c. Also take this all with a big pinch of salt as there's a good chance I'm wrong!

what did you get for the root

It asked for a sketch so you didn't need to show the root value just that there was one and it was before the - 5 the line that came from positive y infinity and negative x infinity

I meant it's only below in the bit we were drawing (-10 to 10). Beyond this it would go above. Untitled design (4).png

That would give you 3 roots bro and why are you assuming that the line won't cross before - 10

Sorry, I've realised what you were meaning. Yes, my answer must be wrong then.

I think I got mid 90s. Can confirm messing up the dumbest stuff like vector ratio and wave function part b). Somehow got the last circle q right though.
