for the amount of time its undr 1250.. my x values were like 28/3 and 32/3 or something like that.. anyway i counted that gap as 4 hours. instead of 4/3 hours! which x2 would have been 2.666 which is 2hr 40 mins which is right but instead i put 8 hours cos i copeltely was NOT thinking. FUCK FUCK i hate stupid mistakes

^ 160 minutes is 2 hours and 40 minutes ...
 

 160 divide by 60 is 2.67 .. .67*60 is 40 minutes.

so yes, we are correct

Oh, Holly Shit

I just realised something.

Stupid me got 3.1414 for the probablilty, after getting the other maximum point(my calc did not show other max at 0.58).
  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x  :x

And so I got the wrong value of Q

And so I got the wrong value of 'b'

DAMN!!

now that i remember it i believe i got something close to p=0.5858 and q=0.5887, or some very very similar. i felt it was a little wierd that they were so similar but meh hahah. and b=20.9 does sound familiar too i think i had that.

Looking at the solutions, I don't think I did as bad as I first thought, still bad, but not as bad.

Can anyone remember how many marks the following questions were worth...these aren't the one's I got wrong, I can remember most of the other mark allocations, I've just totally forgotten how much the following were worth...

2g, 3a ,4d, 5fii

I used Probability =0.03044(from previous question) , and so got the wrong value of b(like 19.2 mins or something like that) . I hope I get consequential marks, because I did write down an integral.

From the solutions it seems I lost:
1 mark in Tassie Jones
2-4 marks in final part of prob question.

Yeah, unnecessary post-count inflation is annoying. I don't mind pointless posts, but when you have people (no names mentioned, because I can't actually think of everyone who I've noticed doing it) who post in every thread they can find, and bump up heaps of topics, it makes for really boring reading, and that sort of stuff keeps me away from FSN for a couple of days sometimes.
