| Type | Rational inequality algebraically |
| Difficulty | Standard +0.3 This is a rational inequality requiring sign analysis and critical value identification. While it involves multiple steps (rearranging, finding common denominator, factoring, testing intervals), it's a standard FP2 technique with no conceptual surprises. The 7 marks reflect the working required rather than exceptional difficulty, making it slightly easier than average overall. |
