yeah well it’s put up or shut up, publish or perish territory, so they choose to publish useless stuff about the exam but also choose to ignore the most controversial aspects of it at their peril.

they will be called out on it, as much as they may wish for silence on the matter

so if they were born without a brain hence are unable to publish anything remotely intelligible either for or against the oos accusation, then nobody will take them seriously.
theyll be called out by us, but still the vast majority of their readers will be perfectly happy with the mish mush fantasy world theyre projecting ext 2 to be. you want proper discourse on stuff like this you look for niche papers or even threads like these, mainstream media will never do it cuz majority of people simply dont care

yo, im a bit late but what do u think a 70 raw would scale to? Also this exam was easier than 2023 and 2022 but did y'all find it harder or easier than 2021?

for 16bi) all the solutions i have seen end up with w^2 + w +1 and therefore show that thing is the root, I subbed in e^(2i pi/3) and e^(2i pi/9) and then ended up with -1+1, would i still get 3/3?

you might but always just imagine worst case scenario so it cant turn out worse than you expect

Bruh that's hard
Looks like some optimisation problem, where you get an equation for the area as , where ? is where the function -f(x-t)+f(t) last crosses the x axis, but its quite complicated. I made a model on desmos here, and I think we need the value of t where this point circled 1729679488679.png

just touches the x axis, roughly t=3.7
When you try expanding -f(x-t)+f(t) it gets way too complex, maybe i'm missing something or there's a workaround with function transformations?

Does anyone else have any thoughts? I may have overcomplicated this

Just a thought, we want this area (red + blue):
1729680077678.png
Red area should be easy to integrate as a simple definite integral

Thinking about the function transformations, the blue area is just this area on the original function f(x):
1729680209493.png
By differentiating to find the turning points, we find that the leftmost turning point occurs at .
subbing this into f(x) to get the y value, say y=a, you can find the blue area as OH DANGIT YOU STILL GOTTA FIND THE UPPER BOUND UGH thought I was cooking but this is also complicated cause you gotta find the solutions to f(x)=a :newburn:

surely theres a really straightforward solution im completely missing

ok I found

now gotta find solutions to the equation f(x)=a =>

by product of roots we know
giving us

solving for t we know that , which we solved earlier as

so area =

roughly 598.728 units^2

Admittedly I used a LOT of symbolab to simplify these ridiculous fractions
Sorry this probably isn't a very good explanation

Oh shoot… this probably isn’t the right solution anyway.. cause they asked for max area bounded by the curve… not integral area (area under the curve is not negative).. ffs, sorry for the time you wasted reading that

Bro, why did no one tell me that maths advanced was going to be this hard... I'm seriously reconsidering dropping extension, like my tutor suggests it.
this obscure ass shi is never coming in any adv paper, id be surprised to see it in a ruse trial adv is not meant to be hard you'll be just fine boss

Lol I never came across any question like this. Your tutor probably scamming you asking out of the scope questions.
