    Factorisation

    If you still want to know how to do it algebraically: m^3+n^3 - 3(m^2+2mn+n^2) + 2(m+n) +3mn(m+n) = (m+n)(m^2-mn+n^2 -3m -3n +2 +3mn) (m+n)((m+n)^2 -3(m+n) + 2 )= (m+n)(m+n-1)(m+n-2)

    HSC 2015 Economics Marathon

    Re: 2015 HSC Economics Marathon Quotas are a bit confusing. Quotas are known as quantity restrictions on the amount of G&S supplied internationally. So if the government decides to set a quota for imported cars to 100 units, it means that the country can only import 100 units of cars. This...

    Factorisation

    I got (m+n)(m+n-1)(m+n-2), is there something wrong with the question or am I simply wrong? Edit: After doing some expansion, I realised that multiplying -n three times will not give positive n^3, so there must be something wrong with the answer

    You don't have to. I had that thought as well today during the last few minutes of paper 2 (gave me a mini-panic attack) then I realised that paper 1 already has your student number on it. Plus as you said, the supervisors check everything to make sure everything is filled, so even if there was...

    HSC 2015 Economics Marathon

    Re: 2015 HSC Economics Marathon Don't forget about conflicting objectives. That is also a limitation. For example eco growth vs inflation etc Also monetary and fiscal policy will sometimes go against one another. But in the context of the question, it seems like it is asking about the...

    Re: 2015 HSC Economics Marathon Actually, monetary policy is better at dampening eco growth rather than stimulating it. Hence this is also a limitation as well. Also the limitations to the fiscal policy is the constraint on trying to maintain or achieve a budget surplus whilst stimulating the...

    General thoughts: English Advanced Modules Paper 2

    I personally think the aligning would change much, since it is first year for paper 1 and for certain modules in paper 2, so I think they might use us a benchmark, and change the alignment for future years based on the way we perform as a reference, but I could be wrong.

    General thoughts: English Advanced Modules Paper 2

    I actually ruled out possibilities based on what have been asked before, until I realised that every 2 years, they ask something about Hamlet's plot to kill Claudius, and the every other second year, they would ask a question that would have something to do with the corruption inherent in...

    General thoughts: English Advanced Modules Paper 2

    Anyone else get stumped at the specific nature of the mod A question for W;t and Donne? It directly asked for mortality only. Also, I totally called it! I knew that the question this year for Hamlet was going to be something about corruption, and its impact on the play as whole. Mod C was...

    Hamlet Predictions

    Anyone think that the essay question will be about 'action vs inaction' or 'hamlet's plot for revenge'? I feel like it wont since they asked it last year but im not entirely sure.
