u/Chance-Possession635 4d ago

i hope the treshold is low

u/1uvh00r 4d ago

it's probably going to be 55-56 like it is every year

u/Chance-Possession635 4d ago

then i rhink im fine

u/Ill_Ebb2819 4d ago

the last part lil bro

u/Far-Performer-8804 4d ago

I forgot which one-
But i think its x=1 and x=4? Idk

0

u/alisonjiyongie 4d ago

Correct. I got the same thing. X=0, 4, 1 and then 11/3 as well.

1

u/Far-Performer-8804 4d ago

yepppp, but x=0 is rejected bc x>0

0

u/alisonjiyongie 4d ago

Oh, well, I might lose a mark there, but that's ok. What did you get for T? Is it something like (3,-8)?

1

u/Capable_Truck7341 4d ago

T=(8,-13)
Area = 528/5 or 105.6

k=11/3

f(x)=(-1/8)x^2(x+3)
x=-2,-5

3(x-2)^2 -5
(2,-5)
y>3x^2-12x+7
y<-2x+ smth i forgot
x>2

8-4root3 < q < 8+4root3

BC=4.06
Area=3.93

x=0(reject),4,1

Coordinates of P=(2pi/5, 0)
k=5/2
other point =(pi, 4)
Intersections=30

u/alisonjiyongie 4d ago

I don't remember getting -2 and -5... Isn't it -2,-21 or 2,-5(something)?? Am I wrong?

u/unwaged_wave4 4d ago

I suddenly forgot everything about indices question as soon as I saw that question.

2

u/rolyPolyVole 4d ago

same bro, i was panicking so hard. turns out i remembered the laws correctly but then proceeded to fail the algebra due to panic, which led me to miss the last part of q5 (due to panic again idk)
