    -10/3

    I got 200 for the boy and the girl but from trial and error..no equations formed.
    Finished the whole paper in 65~ minutes and spent the rest on question 9.
    Really disappointed it about it.
    Wanted to get high 90s on paper 1.

    What did everyone get for the last two parts on the functions and for the maximum and minimum for the Venn diagram?

    I'm so disappointed couldn't do that money question for the life of me.. Or even that ball question with number patterns and I looked at it like 5 minutes before.. :( algebra was nice though and the exponential functions at the end but I seriously doubt I'll get an A now unless I get 100% in p2

    Got 10 for the minimum and 55 for maximum but I think the maximum is wrong

    I got y to equal -10 over 3
    I can't remember the formula I got for the sterling-euro question but my formula worked so :D

    Venn Diagram was 72 - 38 and 72 + 38

    How would that work when 72+38 is 110 and there were only 100 questions?

    It was how much questions they answered in total not how much unique questions they answered.
