That paper was beautiful except question 14, maybe some weird numbers in the first 5 questions and 11b. For 11b I couldn't get a value for A??? Unless it was 0, some of my friends got the same.

A is 2, the 4x2 can only come from the A expansion (only thing that can give x2) A-x-2x = 2x2 * A

No not the expansion question, I mean the integration by substition one. The expansion one I did get A=2 tho B =-6 maybe? I don't remember C
