zzzzz stupid mistakes e.g forgetting to minus for the chair question... Not including greater or equal...
Happy with q16c tho especially when I put it in my calculator and was blessed with the magical numbers '4/9'

i thought they had a system where if you get the answer and cross it out and they see it they give it?
No, once there is a line through it, it is gone. Not looked at. I was told by a marker that I know only about a fortnight ago...

IF you cross out but DONT WRITE ANYTHING ELSE>

they look at it . if it is correct you can get all the marks,

as soon as you write somethin else as an answer --> they don't look at the crossed out stuff

It is a 4 marker, the marking criteria to get 1/2 marks is usually incredibly lax. I am sure you'll be fine.

Why did the answers not prove that it was a maximum?

what do you mean by not write something else?

what i did was for the motion ride thing x = 44.. whatever it was. then line under i wrote 110-44, but i crossed this out, it's 100% legible, do you know if they give it? It's just a mark so im not too stressed
