haha :D i posted this earlier, The mark scheme is wrong 100% gurranteed, if u use their equation u will get the wrong answer and the funny part is.. the examiner report has a different answer but the one in Examiner report is correct :D 4y + 3x = 2 is the correct equation y − 4 = 3( x − 2) is the wrong one.

help needed in http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge International O Level/Mathematics - Additional (4037)/4037_w11_qp_23.pdf question 6 part 2

I am getting 4 values where as the marking scheme says 2 and the calculation is also taking more space then given so can any one please post a correct solution to the problem.
x can never be negative here!!! you see this is because when we take out of modulus, it will be positive always! multiplying x by 2 must therefore to be +ve, so x must be +ve

in second part of this question i'm getting only one value because the graph of y=2x cuts that graph drawn in first part only at one place. can you please draw that graph? i don't know if mine is correct or not and the marking scheme doesn't provide enough information for the turning points and x,y intercepts....

have u reflected the graph? i mean the part that is below x axis to above x axis? try doing that!

in question#8 of http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge International O Level/Mathematics - Additional (4037)/4037_w11_qp_12.pdf i am getting midpoint (2,-1), gradient of AB=4/3, gradient of CD=-3/4 and the equation is turning out to be 4y+3x=2 but the marking scheme (http://www.xtremepapers.com/papers/CIE/Cambridge International O Level/Mathematics - Additional (4037)/4037_w11_ms_12.pdf) says other wise and i am getting 2 answers for both part 2 and 3 which are both included in the marking scheme. So can some one please post a correct solution or tell what am i doing wrong here or is there a miss print some where which i think would hardly be the case.
