What examiners said
Most candidates answered this correctly with a clear best fit line. However, some candidates did not answer the question.
— Examiner report, October/November 2021, 0460/13 Q6(a)(i) (Cambridge)
Most candidates identified the relationship seen on the scatter graph, but relatively few referred to the extent of the relationship. It is clearly a strong positive relationship but there are some exceptions, particularly those countries with a life expectancy lower than 50.
— Examiner report, October/November 2021, 0460/13 Q6(a)(ii) (Cambridge)
Most candidates could explain the link between improving health care and longer life expectancy, but few could identify other aspects of development which extend most lives, such as cleaner water and reliable food supply.
