Yes I agree

My answers I can remember:
0.56
-1 to 4
3.27 recurring
54 degrees 7.5cm 6cm
Method B
£23.15
3/124
Y=1/2x -10
4/3 = a/b
x/y = root 2
m=3.125h^3
m= 5400
CD was 5.6
Angle was 4.9 or 4.7 can't remember
300 cars
32 cars
(2x-7)/6x
First 3 Tick boxes on rhombus - one not ticked was diagonals same length
vectors a b c was (1 over -1)
Vectors parallel as it was twice the value of the other vector
Lines were parallel same gradient of 3
Point (-5,-6) was above the line
Distance was 350 metres for Harry
It was an underestimate
Numbers in the sequence were 55 and 91
Original price was £17.50
4(3x 1) For Carly
36 degrees
Point of intersection was (-3/4, 3)
Iteration u2 was 0.6 and u3 was 30/16 (I think)
Correctly drawn downward slope for y=0.8^x
Criticism of the his method was he used the wrong circle theorem

If you remember any more questions lmk

It went very well for me. Harder than paper 2 but easier than paper 1

For the £23.15 question, most people reduced it to 17.50 or something. I put £23.15 as well - that's definitely right isn't it?

For similar shapes did u get angle stays as 54 degrees, one as 7.5 and the other 6?

If you remember any more questions lmk

you missed question 4 out it was 36 degrees and 4(3x+1)

youre right the 17.50 one was another question

Yes I believe so

Yes it was a different one.

Thanks

did you have to tick more than one option in the rhombus question??

(Original post by tmt1006)

Yes it said TICK ALL

I agree w these

what did you get for the last question? i got -1/2x +10 but im not sure if its right
