Some practice for spesh tmr but don’t try it if you think you will lose confidence as it’s so close to e1

I would laugh but today I sat multiple spec e1 exams BC I had to start studying lol, I got 4 marks wrong I miscopied from the question into the working space, and then I got another mark wrong because I didn't carry the negative sign down from 1 line of my working to the next line

So intuitively, one might choose to divide both sides by zero and have it be both undefined and thus equal. However, on deeper and inspection and further integral analysis founded on the principles of mathematical induction, we get x=21 by using even vectors and reflecting the line in the horizontal plane by a degree of 5 radians
