for the financial outcome my working was:

4/12 x 12 + 6/12 x 0 - 2/12 x 3 - 5= -0.50

i think from everyone else's answers for this i may have got this wrong :( wahhh

25 (d) ii) the interquartile range for females
8,9,11,11,12,15, - 11+11 divided by 2 = 11 16,18 ,18,18,20,21,27,34 - 20+21 divided by 2 = 20.5

Interquartile ranger = upper - lower
= 20.5 - 11
9.5
Did anyone else get this?

Found it pretty easy compared to recent papers, though I made a few really silly mistakes ><.

Can someone please post a link on here when/if they find solutions to the paper?
Thanks :)
My answers-
1 D, 2A, 3B, 4C, 5B, 6C (it's not D as the y intercept is greater than 0 thus the formula would be a^x + 1 or w.e.), 7C(silly mistake), 8D, 9C, 10A, 11D(silly mistake once again :( ), 12A, 13A, 14B, 15B, 16D, 17C, 18A, 19C, 20C, 21A, 22A.
If 6 and 10 are right, you have made my FUCKING DAY. because I guessed No 10 and wasn't too sure about 6 :D

It was lose $3 so you should have done 2/12 x -3 - 5= .....

7 - B almost certain
10 - can't remember but you had to use the compound interest formula.
12 - A
15 - B (I think it was a trick question, correct me if im wrong!)
18 - Either A or B I couldn't decide so I chose one but i dont remember lol.
kiddo, you do know for 12 that you had to flip the equation on one side ( the right side) then cross multiple. Thus the answer was D.
