    adv sciences.. r they hard??

    can anyone give extra info about the scaling? i'm doing electrical engineering + adv. science, and i was looking at what it takes to get engineering honours - a GWAM > 75. it occured to me that my marks would be lower doing the advanced courses, since i wasnt aware that there was any scaling...

    The Reason Why Our Class Will Fail

    i did the course through mcdonalds. you should be glad that you even got a teacher - we got a big folder at the start of yr 11 and were told to do all the exercises in it by a certain date. once every few months somebody from the training department would come and check it, but it was more just...

    Projectile Motion with Resisted Motion

    im not trying to brag, since i screwed up other parts, but i really didnt think this was a hard question. like if you can do even just the basic resisted motion questions there shouldnt have been a problem with it i'd go as far as to say it was by far the easiest 8 marks in the second half of...

    Resisted motion / Mechanics

    yea i might even go as far as to say its the easiest 4u topic. besides maybe curve sketching but i dont even count that as 4u. just remember to find out what forces are acting (usually gravity and some kind of resistive force, eg mkv or mkv^2. then its pretty much just a matter of...

    complex numbers

    both will be ok and if @ is negative, you can still write cis(-pi/3) etc which is easier in some ways because if you write it as cos(pi/3) - i.sin(pi/3) then i find i sometimes forget about the negative sign and end up getting a wrong answer

    A Variety of Extension 1 Problems - St George Girls High School Trial 2001

    6b) part ii i got ay=x^2-2x looks a lil funny to me but its the best i can do... 6c) p(x)=(x-3)(x-4)Q(x) + (ax+b) p(3)=3a+b=3 p(4)=4a+b=4 therefore a=1, b=0 so when p(x) is divided by (x-3)(x-4) remainder will be ax+b = x

    complex roots occuring in conjugate pairs

    do you have a better idea? if so then ill change it. that was just the best i could think of at the time.

    complex roots occuring in conjugate pairs

    yes the polynomial has to have real coefficients for this rule to apply. for the proof ill just give the example of one of the questions i was doing. i dont know of an easy way to to the symbol for conjugate so i'm going to use |x| to mean conjugate. so dont go getting mixed up and think im...

    complex roots occuring in conjugate pairs

    what types of questions would actually require us to prove that complex roots of polymonials occur in conjugate pairs? i understand that usually it is sufficient just to state this rule and then say that the conjugate will also be a root. but sometimes when i see the answers to these questions...

    complex number problem

    no i meant the equation of the ellipse described in this question. i'm assuming it would be something along the lines of (x-6)^2/a^2 + (y-4)^2/b^2=1 except i dont know what a and b are in this.

    complex number problem

    can someone tell me the equation of the ellipse at least? maybe then i could work backwards.
