CSSA General Maths Exam (5 Viewers)

guessed that one as well. what did you guys do for the one where the couple won the lottery? lol

I found out the total amount they had to pay after 25 years and the the total amount they had already paid after the 10 years and then subtracted them. I felt pretty confident with the answer so hopefully it was right. :/

I thought the test was alright, I didn't get the find A tax question and struggled with q28 though.

It was a loan question with a few different parts. I think it was the last part of it were the couple had paid off 10 years and then won the lottery. The question was something like, how much do they have to win in order to pay off the rest of the loan.

do the cssa general math paper from 2005 or 2007. thats the epitome of easy. this was HARD. i chose GENERAL maths for a reason :L

 

[timmyt]

I thought it was pretty good!
I finished with like 20 minutes left...
The last question was actually easy...it was just a trick question with the 'a's after the numbers...all you had to do was use the cosine rule and then substitute it with the area of a triangle formula hahaha

 

[cpwincess19]

That was a really bad test ...

 

[WorryWartCob]

i did that? bahahahah

but the angle didnt equal it. :/

-nah it was hard. haha. i didnt like the simpsons rule one either.
-also for the stem and leaf plot where you had to compare and contrast, what did they have that was similar? they like. completely contrasted. I ended up making up something like they both had a cluster at 3 haha.
AND what did everyone say about the reliability of the trout? did you guys say that although its possible it was unlikely? (In the top 0.15% of scores?)
2005 i got 95 but made stupid mistakes.

 

[sfernando]

from what I know your meant to use the cosine rule for the triangle question, in order to fine the angle. let me know if I'm wrong.

 

[gerges23q]

ummmmmmm usually im ok at general maths, but this exam was just what the fuck?

the probability tree diagram where you had to show both the winners and game played together was confusing as a mofo..
then the simpsons rule fucked up in

it was shit

 

[woga1]

general maths is easy as shit.

I can get 110% in a general exam in my sleep!
