SC 2007 - Mathematics (2 Viewers)

[fayeee]

OH maths was alright.
Don't want to jinx it though.
I thought I did well in the trials but i screwed them so bad..

You know the deposit one?
LOL, run me through what you guys did..
(with all of it)
I think I might've gotten abit confuzzled.

I think I subtracted the deposit before calculating the rest.

 

[cagla]

the no calculator part was bad as!!

especially themarble question, and were we supposed 2 us a compass for the last qus in the no calculator section?

Yes, you were meant to move your compass out 5cm and draw an arc, repeat for point B, then shade in.

 

[fayeee]

Yeah right!
the depoist was like .. $2400?
And then you minus taht from .. whatever that thing was.
And then do the rest?

If it's not
that's a bunch of marks + all the silly mistakes I made lost ..

gah x.X

WTH LOL.

I drew a line.
and stuff.

 

[ajdlinux]

I got 8:15 for the ratio.

 

[bored of sc]

ahhhhh! i really wanted to get like 95+ in this but i think i only got about a band 5 or less,
MUCH harder than i expected but i guess it was fair nonetheless...

non-calulator was good, probably miss 1-4 marks here,
multiple choice was generally good, lose about 5-10 marks,
that correct incorrect thing = there's 5 of my marks gone guaranteed
written answers = bout 3-6 wrong

so using my maths adding skills

best i went is 86%

worst i went is 75% (damn...)

oh, does anyone know when the tests get posted on the board of studies website??

 

[ajdlinux]

Tests usually get posted by the BOS in January I believe.

 

[SC is gayy]

yeee ii drew a line tOo! haha isn`t that right ??
lyk did u put a straight line near the bottom n` then shade it...using the scale to find about 350m from the A and B corners??

 

[ajdlinux]

No, as there's an area in the middle which is more than 350m from points A and B. You need to use a compass to find where the arcs are.

 

[fayeee]

shit, LOL

 

[ahhliss]

I got 8:15 for the ratio.

I would put that. Don't you just make b in both the ratios the same by multiplying the whole ratio?
Is this year or last year's School Certificate easier? I heard the trials this year were harder.

 

[Ppen]

lol i sad that 60L from shop A is 69.9 i think

and that Shop B was 74. sumthing lol

minus them from each other and u get ur difference

however for the last one how it says if she lost or gained

i said gained lol

so yeah

another question in the non-calculator

explain why anle EFB=ABC sumthing like that

i measured it using a protractor and said tat they both measure 33 degrees
and showed the angles

would that be right?

ugh... i don't think your supposed to use a protractor cos it says use trigonometry i think. anyway i got 24 and 24 for that question.

 

[SC is gayy]

omgg ii agree...shit LOLL...hOw much woz that worth !?...gRR how annoying..ii full thought i was doing it right haha

 

[ajdlinux]

ugh... i don't think your supposed to use a protractor cos it says use trigonometry i think. anyway i got 24 and 24 for that question.

Yeah, in any SC or HSC exam never assume anything is to scale unless it says so somewhere. I think I got 24.

 

[ajdlinux]

It was 1 mark I believe.

 

[militiaman]

It was only worth 1 mark.

This is what it should have looked like (roughly)

With the blue part being the part you should have shaded in.

 

[fayeee]

Oh dear.

lol nice drawing
