apparently this paper is gonna be heavy on calculus and statistical analysis, with financial math and trig being the next 2 popular topics. Always count on an applied trig question, a present/future value question, and a normal loan repayment type financial math question. I think they can ask more questions like, "compare the scatter plots/box and whisker plots" like they did in 2024, which threw a lot of people off so be careful about that. calculus is calm not that much to do there, and same with normal distribution related things asw
In terms of statistical analysis, do you mean more heavy on common content stats or adv only stats such as PDF's/CDF's?

i guessed the answer right but i dont know how to go about it. i found a pattern where like the difference between the numbers increases by the powers of 2 but i dont know how to do it properly
You could also use the formula: 1761019214236.png, since it is an arithmetic series (since it is decreasing my a common difference rather than multipled by a common ratio). Since there are 10 terms, you would find

10/2 x (T1 + T10)

My maths teacher marked that anaconda question last year and he said it was answered pretty poorly in general. So I wouldn't be too surprised if something similar turns up this year.

How hard would it be to get a 96 in the exam tommorow 😭 . If I get anything less I can kiss b6 goodbye (due to my rank distance fml)
