    Those last two points were way too big, I had to use the entire graph page length ways, you think they would've made them something more realistic to fit on the page.:rolleyes:

    You could have made your intervals bigger? :)

    Mine was like this :

    Very very weird, probably didn't get it right. But they were the points in the box, Im sure of it.

    God I thought I was the only one...
    I got the points (-3, -17) and (3, 17) and the way they corresponded made me feel that they could be ok!

    It was the weirdest looking graph I'd ever seen though.

    Which question was that for? It looks kinda like the Q6 graph, but with a line through it. My Q8 one was more curved.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,126 ✭✭✭✭Gael23


    Mine for Q6 was 2 seperate ones


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭barry181091


    Oops, Shouldn't of connected them :P I thought because it was a function, It had to be connected.

    Yeah i did the same as that, and I think we screwed up noicely by sticking that line in the middle. probably get a few effort marks all the same:cool:

    Is this Q6 or Q8


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,126 ✭✭✭✭Gael23


    No because it said 2 was undefined


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 104 ✭✭MariaBabii


    In question 8 (pass paper) did anyone get the maximum point (-1,3) and minimum point (1,-1)

    Yes!! It took me a minute to realise that I had to go + or - root 1, I thought I was only getting one point out of it. Maths and me don't go at all.

    Your right, but I decided to go with my gut. The graph just didn't look right !!

    It would have been a lot different if I had had not remembered to sub in 1 and -1 as well :eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 50 ✭✭0.M.GXX


    ya i couldnt get the max and min points .. really annoyed me cos i no u have to differenciate then =0 and then sub points back in.. i just think i froze when there was no x^2 in the answer so didnt no what to do.. but i wrote out formla.. du think i would get attempt marks
    i also did out the point table and the 2 points that.... i i didnt have from part i)i labelled them the max and min..
    do you think i will get any marks.. prob not now...

    :pac:

    Do we loose much marks for joining them ????

    I'm not sure if that would be considered a blunder or if you'd only get the attempt mark.. You'll probably only lose 3 marks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 264 ✭✭Liveit


    one of mine was like this, for question 8 i think

    Mine too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,692 ✭✭✭Danger781


    Thats wrong.. Mine was like that at first because I forgot to sub in x=1 and x=-1


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 656 ✭✭✭Victoria.


    Ah sure I don't really remember or care at this stage. I'm freaking out because I forgot to write calculator model down. :confused: I think I'm gonna have a heart attack I need maths for my course.

    You'll be fine.. It's only just for a reference for the examiners if they need to check calculator work.. nothing to worry about ;)

    were u to use -b formula on ques 3 part c (i)(ii)???:eek:

    first princple ques was handy;)

    Was kinda disappointed with first principles because it would only have been worth about 10 marks the way it was asked there. You would usually get 2o out of that question.

    How worried should I be having not done a graph? Illustrates my love for maths perfectly!

    I doubt the examiner even checks considering the mass of papers s/he has to get through!

    Yeah that's what I did but I'm not sure if I was supposed to do that?

    This is how it looked:

    Ya sure it was a cubic equation. All cubic equation's graphs are like two joint parabola's! Mine looked like that too for Q.8! It's correct afaik....

    For Q6 you were supposed to have the 2 opposing curves, and a straight line for the undefined. The curves should not have connected with the undefined line.
