sometimes in cross product if u put the two vectors wrong way around , u get wrong answer, and did ur equation satisfy both a and b? thats the first test to check if ur ans is correct.......
I didnt check because when i was practising i always got it the answer of the cross product right :p so it'd be weird that i get the wrong answer :p well i guess this question is for the mark scheme to decide..unless u can remember the values of OA OB and OC..if someone does remember please tell me :p ill ask my sir..

i saw
check this OUT...................
ur answers were almost correct except for the d differential equations where in there was no e^ anything it was simply y=(x^2+4)/(x^2-4) maybe plus and mnus signs interchanged but this is for sure.and yes ur values of 0.693 and 5.6 are absolutely rite.but this ppr was not that easy

definitely an A.moreover u have chances to get about like 88% i the threshold is like 55.....good score
basically anything above a 60/75 would fetch u an A
