don't start off programming the calculator... i did and when i did real programming i used to many global variables, not enough functions and parameter passes
there is a separate rule for linear factors raised to a power
e.g. a/x^4+b/x^3+c/x^2+d/x can be rewriten as (a+bx+cx^2+dx^3)/x^4
they still cater for the same quantity of variables but are written differently
what u expected was (ax+b)/x^2 but i rewrote this as a/x+b/x^2
Re: 回复: Re: 回复: Re: Integration Question
u only put cx+d if the denominator is irreducable
example (cx+d)/x^2 = c/x + d/x^2 and i put a a/x^2 and b/x so it works out
i've seen people do better, a guy in my school didn't do a single past paper and got 96 in accelerated maths, another never did homework or study, hadn't even learnt all the topics and got a low band 6
a number, this concept is usually asked in a question like
"explain why integral(0, 2) x^2-1 dx will not find the area of this curve bounded by the x axis
i haven't learnt harder 3u yet but i think question 1 goes like
(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2
so a^2+b^2=(a+b)^2+2ab.. since a>0 and b>0 : (a+b)^2>0
hence a^2+b^2 >= 2ab
