Help how to know wats coming of the exam

karim in math every question will include every part of the syllabus..nothing will be missed in math all the chapters in the book will be involved in the questions. like literally every chapter!!

Q4 How to obtain In Terms Of Y
Q10 Second Part
Q3 How To Take Dx/dt Of The Paremateric Eq
Also Plzzz Explain The Question Having Substitution Method Involve Thanku

Now that is where I got wrong ! Thanks again! Yup, you said it correct! Now if I made it from 1, the answer will correct. (i think) Jazaki Allah khairan!

One more thing, the perpendicular bisector and the line y= π/4 x should be dotted lines and not solid ones. The question says < not < and equal to.

7i) P(white box A) = 1/6
The clip taken from box A is placed in box B BEFORE a clip is taken from box B. So as the total number of clips in box B is 9 initially, it comes 10 later.
P( red clip from Box B) = 7/10
P (W,R) = 1/6 * 7/10 = 7/60

ii) Possible probabilities (W,R) (R,R)
The first combo was calculated in part i, for the second combo as a Red clip is taken from box A and placed in box B the number of red clips in Box B is now 8, and the total no of clip is now* [Edited] 10.
P (R,R) = 5/6 * 8/10 = 40/60
total probability =7/60 +40/60 = 47/60

iii) Find the conditional probability. P(R,R) = 40/60
probability that clip from box B red = 47/60
therefore P (R|R) = (40/60)/(47/60) = 40/47

iv) Since a clip is taken from each box, the probability of taking a red clip can be 0 , 1, or 2
for O P(W,W) = 1/6 * 3/10 = 3/60
For 1-
P (W,R) = 1/6 * 7/10 = 7/60
P (R, W) = 5/6* 2/10 = 10/60
Total = 17/60
For 2-
P(R,R) = 40/60

Do u mind explaining the second part?? If a Red clip is taken from box A and placed in box B and the number of red clips in Box B is 8, then how is the total no of clips not 10???

Sorry, that was a typo, it is 10. I used 10 in calculations as you can see.
I meant to write that the total no. of clips is 'now' 10 not 'not' 10.

You're right Thank you!

Q10 (iii). I have no idea how they worked out the answer and both the mark scheme as well as the er are not helpful :/

So should it be all dotted lines?
like the vertical line equaling 1 is dotted?
and both green lines dotted also?
I really sorry for those question.
Jazaki Allah khiaran for pointing that out..! May Allah s.w.t have mercy on your family and bless you with highest grades in both worlds Aaameen!!

Yup. The should.
Seriously, it okay. I don't mind the questions.

Please help me asap. PhyZac Q3 ii) Why do we take for short interval X<a , and for long interval X>a...Why can't we do vice versa.
And also, Q5 a (ii)
Jazak Allah khair!
Cheers!

Q10 (iii). I have no idea how they worked out the answer and both the mark scheme as well as the er are not helpful :/

Equation of a line is y=mx+c
Here the y-intercept is zero as it is passing through the origin so c=0
Now take the equation of the curve y=x^2 e^-x
let x be as it is and m will be the equation of gradient that you found in the previous step
i.e m= e^-x(2x-x^2)
So you have
y=mx
x^2 e^-x = e^-x(2x-x^2) x
x^2 = x(2x-x^2)
x= 2x -x^2
x^2 = x
x=1

Why do we equate the denominator of the derivative to zero for value of y

Are you asking about the second part ?
