Yeh I thank you mate. That atar isnt too bad, but I thought you would make a 90 easy lol?
I could have (not to sound arrogant). The ATAR I got was pretty much exactly what I needed and I didn't put in nearly as much effort as I could have. In hindsight, I really only studied the day before the HSC exams for English, Physics and Engineering and they were my worst marks.
I don't care about the glory of a high mark haha, just about getting into uni and I've done that.

Ah ok, I couldnt really see it, but I have to get used to it lol.
For 
As x->infinity 4/x^2->0, So y-> +/- (1/2)x
This basically means that for large values of x, the curve tends to go near the curve/line y=+/-(1/2)x. Of course it would also approach infinity, but it will do so by staying close to y=+/-(1/2)x.
