Worked solutions written by AI for Holy Grail. We publish a part only when two independent AI solutions agree, and a part can still be wrong. This is not the school's mark scheme or an official SEAB or Cambridge mark scheme. Mark splits are our suggestion, following the SEAB syllabus rules for this subject.
