so r^2 = 12900t^2-18000t+10000, which is the same as 100(129t^2-180t-100). dr^2/dt = 100(258t-180), when dr^2/dt =0 t=30/43, finding d^2r^2/dt^2 = 100(258), therefore minimum for all values of t>=0. when t=30/43, r = 60.99942813, r=61 nearest km

What's the go with only getting one booklet per question to start with? I used at least two for each question...

Please someone tell me that you get some marks for working out? since I got about 20% of the answers wrong.

It was 1/XY = 1/AD + 1/BC, but I used ratio intercept theorem parallel lines cut transversals in equal ratio or something like that and also the corresponding sides in the similar triangles and from there developed a relation. Don't have the diagram to explain, but that took me forever.

Looking at the paper again isn't going to change anything. You are going to feel worse and may impact on your study for exams to come.
