*Note:-
Kindly note that we have received a notification from the UNSW dated 16 October 2009 informing the following:

"Following further analysis of question 32 in Paper B (Standard 4) we have concluded that the language used in this question was ambiguous and open to different interpretations, resulting in two different solutions. For this reason we have
determined that both Option B (26) and Option D (46) are appropriate responses."

Following the above, students' scores have been adjusted accordingly.
