Oops! Not sure how that happened!

Fixed now (I hope).

Thanks!

There's another typo in Q7. sqrt(6) ≈ 9.79796 / 4 = 2.44949 (There's an extra "4" in the solution xD)

I'll sort this one later. Keep them coming!

A typo in Q2 (ii) (b) solution, there is one intersection at (0, 5) not (5, 0).

Thanks again!

In Q3 (iii) (d) solution, there is one root when k ≥ 0 or k = -e^2.

Will sort that one now. Thanks again!

There is a redundant "of BC" in the question?

Submitted by cg213 on Tue, 06/05/2018 - 08:48

It might be slightly redundant, but it was left in to make things clear to candidates. Since this is a real STEP question I won't fiddle with it :-)

Thanks!
