Was that exam hard or like, what? You can find a copy of the exam here.
The guys over at ExamPro have done a set of suggested solutions - credit to BubbleWrapMan.

Anyone have solutions to 4f)?
I rushed through it so I wasn't confident with my answers.
-
So how did you guys find the exam? Harder than last yr? Easier? About the same?
-
19 was b???
-
Can some predict study score?
High/mid A+ on SACs
Dropped 2-3 exam 1
Dropped about 4 on exam 2
-
lol i didnt even finish, RIP my 35 study score.....

I'd say slightly harder. Last Q was difficult (dropped 8 marks) and I found multi choice was slightly harder than usual.

Dropped 2-3 exam 1
Dropped about 4 on exam 2
I had high A+ For sac , 34/40 exam 1 and 78/80 exam 2 in 2015 and it was 43
As u go to good school, i think u can get 44~46 study score
-
19 was b???
I got D ???
-
Wasted soo much time on 19 :(
Smallest value was at b=0, then because 0.2 is Pr(4), pr(-1) must be 0.8 (a+0.2=1)
this makes the mean 0.8 X -1 + 0.2 X 4 = 0
for highest value, a=0, so nothing will be by neg 1, then solve to find the value of b (not sure what is was) by saying all probablilities add to 1. Then solve to find the mean. I think I got 1 which gave me E
-
Didn't mind it - only blind guess was Q19 of MC because I didn't have time to think about it enough.
Hoping for an A.
-
Horrible. Spent so much time on last question. Was the answer to finding k for int at -1/2, 1/2 -5/4?
-
Horrible. Spent so much time on last question. Was the answer to finding k for int at -1/2, 1/2 -5/4?
k>1, it was +5/4
-

I got k = 5/4, not negative though.
Tough exam though, ended up not having enough time so I left 4 marks worth of stuff blank from the last question and guessed the last two multiple choice.
Pretty happy with it overall though.
-

I rushed through it so I wasn't confident with my answers.
Did k eq - x -1 to 1 integral
Not too sure tho
-
A damn it. Stupid mistake :-\
-
Surely I wasn't the only one that didn't realise that the equation for g(x) was given on the page before :'(
-
Score?
1-2 dropped ex1
6-10 dropped ex2
-

positive 5/4
-

According to my teacher, Q19 was E
k>1, it was +5/4
Yep, I got positive 5/4 as well
-
K was greater than one so couldnt be negative 5/4. Got lucky on that one
-
Score?
1-2 dropped ex1
6-10 dropped ex2
Dropping 7 could net you a 45 (with great SACs), but most likely 44, dropping 12 would be around 41-42
-
Is there any minute hope of a 40 ss with 98/100 (rank 1) sac's, 33/40 exam 1 and around 70/80 exam 2?
Battling....

The last question screwed me over >:(
But the other questions were pretty stock standard
By the end, I realised i hadn't even touched my summary book for the whole exam... lol
The questions around statistical inferences were easier than expected
Hoping to get 35 raw *crosses fingers* :-\
-
Just realised I forgot about the k>1 for half of Q4.
It's all over.
-
pls tell me that was a difficult exam? comparable to 2013??? i swear i just died
-

I really don't think so buddy. To get a 40, you'd need to have an exam as difficult as 2013 (and this wasn't as hard I don't think).
I'd say more like 38-39
Orb, what do you reckon:
SACs: A
GA2: 27/40
GA3: 67/80

I'd say 35-37
I dropped 8 last yr and got 43 criiii
Yeah last year was weird, dropping 5 across both was a 47 haha

What do you think?
Sacs - A? Around 85/100. not sure about rank but I've been told I'm 'well in the top half' of my moderate cohort.
Exam 1- screwed it up :(. Around 26/40.
Exam 2- Feel more confident, 60/80?
Do you think I could get 35?

I really thought the exam was standard, if you get 118/120 with a low-mid A+ SAC you'd be looking at fringe 48 instead of 50 (so short answer, no probably not). Also mind examiners could potentially take off marks elsewhere in your paper (if you know you've dropped 2 marks already, dropping another 1-2 marks from careless/bad expression can easily plummet the S.S down to 46-47, it's very cutthroat at the top)
Only dropping 2 on the final exam is still something to be proud of though! A lot of talented students drop a bit more due to nerves :)

So did anyone else remember their answer to the third last question of q4?
Area = 2*Area of OXY

ended up with something like k was between 1 and 5/4 (inclusively)

For 4c, I accidently wrote two sets of solutions, e.g c = .., d = ... OR c = .., d = .... Will I get marks deducted?

For all of you asking for predictions:
My take on predicting your own study score
Here's how to predict your own!
-
For the third last part of Q4. if you only said k ≤ 5/4 would you be deducted a mark? because k is given to be > 1 in the Question
-
Ohh thats how you do it! How'd you find the exam overall? The multiple choice was way easier than last years, only q19 was like so difficult haha
I liked it. Dropped 2 marks that I know of so far, most likely q19 too. I spent like 6-8 min on q19. Hoping it's b :|

i guessed b too haha, after narrowing it down to a or b. its weird because i got 1< k < or = 5/4 but i dont remember squaring the area of the triangle .....

for 3f) some people are suggesting that you have to do 50/100 * 49/99 * 50/98 =25/198
What are you thoughts on this

i did that too, as the sample size was 100 and therefore probabilty wasnt independent? not sure if im right, oh and 3d was to 3 decimal places. also for 4fi i got the same answer , except with a modulus ( in my CAS) , so i put the modulus in as the answer as well (in the brackets of loge), would i be penalised?
-
for 3f) some people are suggesting that you have to do 50/100 * 49/99 * 50/98 =25/198

eh I feel like it can be interpreted either way as replacement isn't specified
-

I reckon it's implying no replacement. Once you've inspected a computer, you won't be inspecting the same computer again, so he most likely will put it to one side.
-
So because the function in 3h. isn't actually a probability density function, there are two possible "medians": 176.45 (integrating from 0 to m) and 176.43 (integrating from m to 210).
How many examiners does it take to define a probability density function?
-
I reckon it's implying no replacement. Once you've inspected a computer, you won't be inspecting the same computer again, so he most likely will put it to one side.
I reckon that since we don't know the sample proportion, the sample of 100 was irrelevant? The probability was taken from the large population. It's not about replacing or not replacing. I can't see why the prob would be different that if he were to take each computer one by one from the large population.
-
what do you think will be the mark up, and did you struggle with the last question? because im freaking out atm :-\ :-\
-
isnt the rule if np>5 then you can use binom.
100*1/2=50>5
-
isnt the rule if np>5 then you can use binom.
100*1/2=50>5
if n>30, normal
if n<30 binom
Regardless of these rules, I'm definite that this was independent using both logic and what i've heard VCAA will adhere to in the future.
small pop=ncr etc.
I'm almost confident 3f) is 1/8
-
Also for 4fii could I use a graph and limits.
-

if n<30 binom

Yeah actually since we don't know the sample proportion it's as good as selecting with replacement. Gotta change that back.
-
Was anyone else tripped out by the sample proportion of 0.06 in 3g? The probability of getting a sample proportion of less than 0.1 is less than 10^(-17), so they got pretty lucky.
-
In question 2, I didn't work out the normal properly, however the line was used to find different points of intersection and other information in sequential questions.
Would I be eligible for consequential marks? (The gradient of my normal was correct, I just mucked up the Y intercept)
-

that... doesn't sound right? I mean the correct mean was close to the confidence interval
edit: I got 0.0249 as a p value doing a hypothesis test
-
Okay so for question 4a) I think it was, where you need to express the rational function in the form a+b/(x+2) I used long division and got the same answer as on the recommended? I haven't seen anyone else use that method and as such I was wondering if I will lose the mark for working? Thanx x I got maybe 50% so like every mark is golden and yeah I kinda need a 30 so someone reassure me that I at least got that mark :)
I also went with 1/8 for the computer question, it didn't specify no replacement so I assumed no replacement. Lmao I made so many mistakes in that paper so that's probably one too though
edit: I'm also in the same boat as emily- I got the equation of the normal wrong (y-int), and as such got an incorrect value for C and that affected like all of the rest of question 2. Any chance at consequential as it's an exam 2?

I used that method as well! I think it's a very viable way of doing it, and my teacher had taught me to do those sorts of problems that way also :)

Okay that awesome :) I'm also a spesh student and I almost caught myself using half angle formulas for f(x)=2f'(x)+pi, which could have been quite bad. But I couldn't think of any other way to simplify a rational function other than long division and I got really quite paranoid. Bless your entire heart for helping to put my mind to ease with that question at least xxx ;D :D 8)

For the last question (4fii) is drawing the graph of a(k) (with the asymptote) and Saying as k approaches infinity a(k) approaches zero and as k approaches 1 a(k) approaches 2.

I did the same working in my suggested solutions. I thought this would be a more simpler way of tackling the question. You should be fine in that reasoning, as it didn't ask you to refer to the area of the triangle from previous questions.
-
I feel like 4f would have been 2 marks if it was assuming no replacement

Same, i think the mark distribution is rather confusing for that question.
-
I cant believe i didn't just say f'(x)>0 therefore the func is strictly increasing. Instead I used a different method which I think makes sense. It is attached below. Do you think it would get the two marks. Q4D
-
How have the year 11 boys gone, dropped 1 on paper 1 and 3 on exam 2 rip parents expectations of 50.
-
Does anyone know if consequential marks will be given for exam 2? For example, will finding an incorrect y-coordinate for a point and then subsequently using this in the calculation of a distance result in the deduction of more than one mark?
-
I just wanted to put the 3f discussion to bed.
I spoke to my maths teacher who is the head of the maths teachers board (not exactly sure of the official title) and is a vce methods marker.
She said that the answer to 3f is 1/8

Well the page isn't currently showing up, but I do think 1/8 is correct for 3f, having thought about it some more. I had that in the first place and changed it in response to a method that I hadn't thought of being suggested. It took me a while to realise that this argument assumed that exactly 50 of the 100 laptops lasted for less than three hours, but no such thing was said in the question.

Was that exam hard or like, what? You can find a copy of the exam here.

Yes every year there are at least a few people who end up full marking 80/80. IIRC 2006/2007 (not 100% which years) the highest scores were 78/79 but there were only around 1600 students doing it then now it's 16000.

do you by any chance know the approx number of students who get 80/80 in exam 2
and also, do any students get 0/80

depends on the year, but VCAA don't release that enough anymore if i'm not mistaken. You don't need 80/80 for a 50 though. Pretty much any year but 2006 you could lose 1-2 marks (across both exams)and still get a 50.

I was ranked first in methods so basically 100/100 for sacs but in terms of raw probs 98/100.
For the exams these are just estimates since i didnt buy my statements. Exam 1 I think I full marked and Exam 2 I thought i dropped between 3-6 marks. Looking at my study score i would assume i dropped 3 marks overall.

wow!
also, if you have time, would you mind trying to predict what study score these scores of 120 (both exams combined would give this year 2016)

Doesn't work that way. Exam 1 mark=/=exam 2 mark
Btw if anyone knows, is it normal for one examiner to give the mark for a 1 mark question and one to not? Should I inspect?
Got 72/80 or 144/160 on exam 2 for a 45. Weirdly lost a couple marks at weird places and got full marks for answers that don't quite match the suggestion solutions. a+ cutoff for ex2 was 65.5/80

Guess this year's exam was considerably harder than last years. That's 12 marks across both exams, last year that was like a 42 haha. The success rate is highly low from inspections, i doubt it'll work, but if it makes you feel any better then go for it :)

Yeah it probably doesn't matter. I lucked out heavily on one of the questions (didn't match both suggested solutions) so that's good enough

Nah it isn't 12 marks. Should have made it more clear. Didn't request my exam 1 marks. 9-10 marks lost across both exams. (confident about what I got)
a+ cutoff for exam 2 was 65.5/80
