How did you guys find matrices... easier than 2010??

[molllz]

2010 was probably the hardest part 1 exam for matrices??
Do you guys think this year was much easier?

[Keo]

Yes it was much easier

[MJRomeo81]

Really? I thought the last 2-3 questions were dodgy compared to typical VCAA standard. Still accessible but definitely harder than previous years.

the last question tripped me, i thought i got it right and i circled four zeros, but everyone was saying its 2 as min..

[Natters]

yeah, if A has it's two non zero integers on different rows, there are four non zero integers in AB
if A has it's two non zero integers on the same row, there are two non zero integers in AB

[tryingtobeoptimistic]

OMG ! i circled 4 too instead of 2 thinking i saw maximum number of 0's as opposed to minimum... 
glad im not the only one.

q8 Matrices was fun

q8 Matrices was fun

I thought question 8 was quite interesting how something like that could happen.

How'd you guys do Q6) That election question: Anna wins, but is it D or E ?

[Furbob]

it was by 180 votes so you rounded it up to 200, E.

[butene]

Definitely
