The normal does not concern the gradients, or continuity, of the other points of the curve. It only concerns the point at which you were asked to find the normal to. For that reason, the normal should always be a linear equation with the domain of all real values.

Do you have to sketch the normal over the same domain as the original graph? I sketched a small section oh it just enough to show the intercepts.

Probably not. You pretty much need full marks for Methods.

enwiabe dropped 3 marks on Exam 2 (full on Exam 1) and got 44. (97% on SACs).

I got 44 in methods in 2006 with 40/40 in exam 1, 77/80 in exam 2 and 97% for my SACs... I thought it was a friggen' joke.

Hmm...

That said, 2006 was considered an easy year!
