Collin Li:
I think if you can show that a CAS calculator could cope with it much better than a non-CAS calculator, then you're in business.
But considering that it only took 15 seconds for a TI-83 to solve() it, then I don't think the CAS can beat that by a great margin.

I have the strongest headache. I got 5 hours of sleep last night. I felt dizzy during the exam. I was about to faint. I was dehydrated, had no energy.

Filing a formal complaint against VCAA for last part of last question. :) Taxed my calculator far too much, taking 5 minutes out of my time. Didn't have time to go back to a previous part to do a question that looked difficult and thus left. I had about 1 minute to do it after giving up on that stupid graph and I only got half of the solution out. Would be lucky to get 3 marks, will probably get 2 marks and if i'm very unlucky, 1 mark.
Overall, I think I got about 75-77/80 and am quite pleased with the effort.
