The only maths chicks need to be able to do is ratios...so they can change the amount of ingredients needed for the recipes depending on the servings

Expand LHS, you eventually get something in the numerator including p+q-r and other positive terms

s0rry I forgot about this...

If 100g of pasta needs 1 min on high, how many minutes does it take to microwave 150g of pasta on medium?

I am such a cunt. I assumed it was true, worked to a point that it was true, then crossed it out and rewrote everything backwards
i did that at the start as well. but i cbb to continue since it's question 5. so moved on with other questions.

Theres a really neat way to do it if you start by observing that x/(1+x) = 1 - 1/(1+x) and 1/(1+r) ≥ 1/(1+p+q+pq) = 1/(1+p)(1+q): the equation then factorises into positive things

people saying 90/120 cut off for e4 are fucking scaring me....

If last year 79/120 (66%) ->92 then i doubt the cut off this year will be 75% considering the paper this year wasn't that much easier in comparison ....

i think last years cut off was like 72 or so, so this years will be around 70

Same here, I expanded the left hand side, then I got a conclusion that p + q + 2pq was greater or less than zero, then I wrote backwards from there on the actual answer page.
