I got all the same answers, except Core question 9 and Graphs and Relations question 9

For graphs and relations question 9 almost certain that is correct as y is slightly higher than x therefore you would want to maximize y which is done by E. C would also make sense but if you substitute approx co-ordinates of M x+4y=max. A makes little sense

That's my reasoning for those answers

Well~
i think u gotta better work out two equations there
which is y= 100-5/2x  and y = 60-x/2
 
then find the intersection point ---> ( 20,50)

test the equations then

----> then it will make sense ---> the ans is A

 

That is the foolproof way of working it out. No guesswork.

A is the answer.

if its 20,50 then option E gives a value of 220 which is more than what option A gives (70)

[clinton_09]

does anyone know if the A+ cut offs change or does it always remain at 36?

haha, I just came off quite the douche . I should say A makes little sense to me but that's because I read the q wrong . I interpreted has "the" maximum value rather than "it's" maximum value.

[ausyid]

So the only question I could be wrong in according to what's been figured out in this thread is Core Q3. But I still think I'm right!

[RD]

Hm... looks like I got around 30-31/40, well definately better than then 25ish I was averaging in the couple of pracs I did yesterday.

[We Want Peace.]

you wouldn't add the 7 outliers because they are still considered part of the upper 25%

so wat was ur answer for this one then?

I got the same except for number 8 where I wrote E but I think I'm wrong.

Yeh E is wrong.

25% of 79 is closest to 20....

You've misunderstood the question. If it was E and the M is (20,50), then M would not be a maximum as it would = 220 whereas the point (0,60) would equal 240!

It says start of Week 5, not the end of week 5. So if you put anything else with the answer being for the end of week 5, it wood be wrong. Needed to read the question properly here.
