Mark Scheme
Question 1
Dress A: 14
Dress B: 10
Dress C: 12
Question 2
Net = 5 which is less than Noise
Goals = 0
1 mark for the subtraction and result of the comparison
1 mark for the correct result
Net = 15 which is greater than Noise
Runs Loop one {Goals = Goals + 1, Net = Net - Noise}...
...Goals = 1
1 mark for the subtraction and result of the comparison
1 mark for clearly indicating that the loop is executed once
1 mark for correct result
