Find how many different numbers can be made from some or all of the digits of the number 1345789

3. Find how many different numbers can be made from some or all of the digits of the number if (i) all seven digits are used, the odd digits are all together and no digits are repeated, (ii) the numbers made are even numbers between and , and no digits are repeated (iii) the numbers made are multiples of which are less than , and digits can be repeated

It had to be 57. I checked by physically writing down all possible numbers on paper lol.

It is 60. I accidentally multiplied by 5 (please don't ask why, so many 5P something got the 5 stuck in my head and I subsconciously wrote down 5 instead of 3 and got 100), but yes, the answer is 60. It was actually one of the easier questions IMO. It had to be 60 because the paper clearly stated NO REPETITIONS for this question. 5P2 for each x 3 Good luck to everyone.

lol dont worry man you know i made the silliest mistake on cud ever make in the third part... it was repition allowed and i did it right on the question paper but god damn when i did it on answer sheet i forgot that repitition is allowed.... facepalm,

i gave variant 2 Kamihus what was your variant?

Yes!!! Get in!!!
I am so happy. According to this mark scheme, I got 46/50 (given I made no stupid errors I don't remember). Plus 69/75 on the other paper. I hope this secures me an A. So happy!!

Which formula did you use for the mean and variance in q6iii

Ho

Which formula did you use for the mean and variance in q6iii

The one for the grouped data. These are by using the exact values. I also solved them on the stat mode on the calculator and got this answer.

Shouldn't you multiply the midpoints by the frequencies and then divide by the total frequency


Page 2

Find how many different numbers can be made from some or all of the digits of the number 1345789

and your variance should be 0.600 your midpoints are not right.10.25,10.75,11.5 so on.

BTW, due to accuracy issues, it should have been 11.7 for the mean, not 11.6 (11.66 rounds up). You used 10.2 and 10.7, should have been 10.25 and 12.75. CIE clearly states you should work to 4 s.f.'s and give answers to 3 s.f.'s

And variance was 0.6! Once again ,due to accuracy!

Yes mean will be calculated that way.

Check the Q3 (iii) for this paper. Less than was used here too.

I found this one easier. Although its better to wait for the actual thresholds but it surely will be 35-40 range

.

The method you stated was for the variance

You should also look at this paper, less than was used.

The method you mentioned was correct for the mean. My mean and variance are correct for MY mid-points.

I got the same midpoints and frequencies as you but I seem to get a different answer , that's what's confusing me I thought that my midpoints are wrong that's I am not getting the same mean and variance as everybody else

BTW For the histograms, did you ensure the line did not touch exactly the line for the boundaries for the right? As in <12 so being at like 11.95

My mean is 11.6122807. Use this exact value in finding the variance.

I wanted to ask for the histogram myself. I used 9.95, 10.45 and so on. Q4 in this paper is a similar one and exact 20, 30 are used according to the mark scheme. Both are correct perhaps.

The boundaries are similar. The only difference is the decimals so guess the same method will be applied.


oh god. Dude. In discrete data, there is a different way. In continous data there is a different way. Very small difference.

the question stated repetition is allowed and less than and the numbers shkuld be less than 1000 and multiples of 5. so the last digit has onr possibility. and there were 7 no.s in total. since repetitions are allowed and it was a three digit no. 7x7 =49

Mohammad Farzanullah said:

u r forgetting that there could be 2 digits or single digit numbers also
so the answer is 57!

^Yupp thats exactly what was i going to tell u btw, the number cud have been 555 or even only 5 as well so 2 more possibilities..

It's hard to see that when it is computerized. I believe we are right! If not, it's one mark maximum, but we're probably right. I remember reading it in my textbook like 10 minutes before the exam and my maths teacher said:
"Yes. Just make sure the difference is only very slight."

I also didn't drew less than 10.0 for a zero. Started with 10-10.5. Not sure if a mark will be deducted for that too.

Last Question, Last Part : The required probability was P( 163 <= X <= 173) So in other manner it can be written as P(X < = 173) - P( X< = 163) [just visualize the normal graph]

by applying continuity correction we will get P( X < = 173.5) - P( X <= 163.5) as <= 173 can be written as <174 and <= 163 can be written as <164

I also didn't drew less than 10.0 for a zero. Started with 10-10.5. Not sure if a mark will be deducted for that too.

I did exactly the same thing!!! High-five brooo. Team NotTooSureAboutHistogramBoundaries will take over Xtremepapers! lol
Anwyays, 45/50 is what I'm expecting. Maybe 44, maybe 46. But around that!

no thats okay. you wont loose a mark dude. Well I am getting 42 max in S1, 67 max in P1, 58 max in P3 and 40 max in M1.

So overall not an A* and maybe not even an A. You're better off than me man!

Hey! The boundaries for A* have gone as low 205 or even less if I'm not mistaken and this year P1 was hard and P3 and M1 were harder from what I've heard. So you surely have a chance!
I still have to give P3 and M1 next year and even if I get 115 this year next year I'll need around 110 total for an A* and P3 is really hard.

A* has jumped upto 223 as well, so who knows? I'd want to commit suicide if I get a B. I cant handle it.
Good luck for P3 nd M1 next year

Good luck for P3 nd M1 next year

It has gone as above as 230 I think but don't worry! It will nowhere be that high this time as all papers were difficult except S1.

Hello guyz as its been 24 hours lets discusss...... so i hve given variant 62 for statistics...!!! first q was it 0.813 i guess

wat was de standard deviation in the last q first part??

What else did you get wrong?

I made the silliest mistake on the permutations question for 5p2. I multiplied it by 5 instead of 3 (so many 5s made me write it even though I knew I had to multiply by 3, didn't even notice). Also taking off marks which I have not identified as error,s, you know, we all have those small mistakes we think are correct and are only worth 1 mark, such as rounding to wrong amount of s.f.'s, so I'm deducting marks off myself to get in the worst case. If that makes any sense lol.

i was so tired that i accidently did 5!*3 instead of 5P2*3

Feel free to post any queries or mistakes

All same Alhamdulillah

Heyyy dude i used the same midpoints At least someone out there who thinks alike dont know whether its correct or not but we can always pray

Its wrong but we'll lose just 1 mark for it as the answer for variance was same and mean was incorrect!

Find how many different numbers can be made from some or all of the digits of the number 1345789

My prediction is that threshold for A* would be around 210 this time!

Find how many different numbers can be made from some or all of the digits of the number 1345789

I gave all P1, P3, S1 and M1.
P1 and S1 were extremely easy while M1 and P3 were moderate with some tricky parts.

if i accidently added both the phi values and subtracted them from one how many marks will i lose

p1 65 p3 55 p4 35 p6 45 i think this will be the gt

p1 65 p3 55 p4 35 p6 45 i think this will be the gt

Nope. Absolutely not. P1 was much harder than other years. 58 or 59. P6 was moderate but tricky, with too many places in which people could make dumb, careless mistakes. 45 is way over expected GT. 40 at the very very most. Dunno about the rest, haven't done them.

Q3(II) is wrong. The answer is 0.583
The conditional probability will be (0.6*0.7)/0.72 = 0.583

i think the question said that the match would end between roger and andy after 2 sets. the probability we had to find is after 2 sets.

ATM I'm just cramming ICT theory lol. Teacher left in January and we'd only covered like half the practical exam theory and nothing else. Had to self-teach practical techniques and now learning the whole syllabus for the theory paper in 3 days. Longest hours of my life. 80 pages to memorize and learn in 3 days!! Already done 40, but my brain is exhausted! Off xtremepapers for a while. I will try to help on explaining answer solutions when I come back. Just reply to this message with your questions and I'll try explaining answers!

what will be the threshold for p32

I have a 73% in AS overall.. A in p1 D in Mechanics So average 73 it is B

After reading Kamihus solutions i feel i am gonna get 20 in Statsistics

and as for p3 i think not more than 45.. dear xtremepapers geniuses, kindly help me for what grades i should set my mind for..

should be happy or no.. I mean what are my grade assumptions by you all, last times AS predictions came out to be quite true!

Guys for that combination part I got all the combinations all the 4.. Fot number two, lekin I multiplied by 11C4 or something :'( Please dony ask me why but tell me how muh will I score out of 4?

Kamihus thementor

Guys I found p12 very difficult and made silly mistakes in p62 I might get about 40 but know I am hearing from people that both papers were very easy and that the gt will be higher than expected what do you think I am worried

In P12 it will be about 57 and and P62 around 39.

wrong midpoints, sorry mate. asked my teacher. in the question it was e.g <10 to <10.5. we take 10 to 10.4 and take the midpoint i.e 10.2.

hahahahaha, how can you people be so silly man. It was continous data. Hence that is no way to take mid points. You will find out when the Ms is published

If my total is about 97 do you think I can still manage an overall A

Hey can you help me too.. I dont seem to be be understanding the GT system..
So if I have a 45 in p3 and 20 in s1 does it make a B after having a 71% in my AS?
pLEASE Help me

pLEASE Help me

what are your component grades and when did u took AS

truly speaking....with these marks u arr getting 145 marks but for B 150+ are needed

Ooooh
Well, these marks of mine are quite underrated for not keeping hopes high
I have a 50-55 feel for p3 and 20-25 for s1, again not keeping my hopes high
How much total is required for an A?

check previous mark schemes, same type of questions have come before also.

Although mistakes have been made, people will get their working marks wont they? even own figures right?
I messed up the whole paper baadly
and now i feel GT will be 37, whatsay people?

Guys i m expecting an overall 100 marks for both Maths P1 and S1, with about 60-65 in P1 and 35-40 in S1 (Inshaa Allah). Can i expect an A with these marks?

If you get 100, surely, even if 95, then you might just get it.

Ohh coooool! If all goes as i am expecting and i secure an A (IA) just on the edge, will it be tough to keep up with an A* in A2?

A* is around 215 marks for an average. So you'll need about 115 in the next year, so little more than A* in A2 is what you'll need.

As for now, i really dont know anything about A2 What are the total marks in A2?

I think i got it.. 125 for AS and 125 for A2.. A total of 250 marks, and i will be needing around 215, about 115 marks more, right?

Yeah, A* can be in the range 200-230, but for an average you can say about 215 marks in total.

Hahaha if it climbs up to 225-230, then there is absolutely no chance Lets just hope it stays low next year.. Anyways, thanks for clearing up my mind buddy

It won't be 230 as for that all four papers have to be super-easy, but this year P1 was already difficult and S1 was easy to medium. So this year thresholds have to be taken into account.

Woww that was even more relieving :'D Yea u r right! S1 was easy though, but i made some blunders

PLZZZZ answer me guys for question 5 part ii) it should be as the numbers that start by 4 =6*5*4=120 and the numbers that start by 3 = 6*5*4=120and by adding them its 24o

AM I RIGHT????

It has to be even so it will be 5*4*2 when starting with 3 as last can either be 4 or 8. It will be 5*4 as 8 will be at the end when starting with 4.

can i ask one more thing please??? for the third part in the same question :

the 3 digit numbers ending in 5 = 7*7*1= 49???
