pretty happy :D
As long as the examiners aren't too pedantic about my hideous graphs, should get 40

I think i got 39/40, but in the same boat as robbo, screwed up spec big time, this exam was reasonable
But spec was hard. Hard exam means lots of people screwed up. Probably will end up doing better than you expect

Yay thank you. My mind is at ease. :)

But since everyone did so well, they [examiners] might be picky about it and take away a mark for not simplifying... in which case I didn't.  :'(

Oh well good luck for the next one everyone. Enough of  getting myself worried.

In retrospect, it would be farcical if they took marks off for not simplifying the cube root:

1. It was not a requirement in the question stem;
2. It's the CORRECT x-value...

It's possible you integrated sin[pi(x)] incorrectly, or made a mistake in the conditional probability expression.

Say you integrated it correctly and wrote down the correct rule for the conditional probability BUT got the wrong final answer, how many marks would you lose for that question?
