Mark Scheme

This document provides a mark scheme for an O Level (P1) graphical solutions exam. It summarizes the key points that examiners will look for in awarding marks for students' solutions to exam questions involving graphical representations of functions. Some key expectations include correctly sketching graphs, finding intersections between graphs, determining function values, and plotting points accurately. Examiners focus on awarding marks for correct methodology and solutions, rather than the specific numerical values calculated within permitted tolerances.
