    Problem with simulataneous equations :(

    Most of these questions simply require you to translate chunks English text into maths. This is usually the part that students find difficult some times. Once you have obtained the mathematical description of the given conditions, some simultaneous algebraic crunching will get you the answers...

    does EVERYONE change their timetable?

    I got everything sorted. I spent 5 hours negotiating between schools of bio/chem/maths/IT. I'm going to be able to do INFO1903 now because Chemistry has agreed to let to attend my tutorial with the CHEM1901 stream and IT has agreed to let me come to prac an hour late so I can go to the BIOL1903...

    does EVERYONE change their timetable?

    The BIOL1903/MATH1906 clash seems unresolvable unless I do no INFO units at all. Hmm. However, it's a lot better if I swap over to INFO1003. I've only done a little bit of web design before so I'm not heading in with any expectations of it being a breeze. I don't intend to major (or minor, for...

    Solutions for Fitzpatrick

    I suppose I could consider letting you scan my exercise books. Everything from Cammy 4U's there. But I still fail to see the usefulness of access to the solutions. It will be far more helpful if you just ask for hints to difficult questions in the forums here and use those to help you work out...

    does EVERYONE change their timetable?

    Be happy that you don't have 3 unresolvable clashes. I have CHEM1903 tutorial/INFO1903 lecture, BIOL1903 prac/MATH1906 seminar, BIOL1903 lecture/INFO1903 prac running at the same time. All my units have at the most two distinct streams - for most things there is only one stream so I can't just...

    txtbooks

    For Differential Calculus, I believe Lecture Notes for MATH1001 and Lecture Notes for MATH1901 are separate. For Linear Algebra there's only one set of Lecture Notes for MATH 1002/1902, which comes in two books - the red one is Vectors (used in Wks 1-4) and the blue one is Linear Algebra (used...

    What Course Should I Do?

    Most health science degrees lead to hands-on, well-paid careers - pharmacy, physio, nutrition, sports science, radiology, etc. etc. I think Newcastle offers special entry provisions for rural students so the UAI cut-off for MBBS is something like 90. Check up on that because it's only...

    combined law textbook question

    Haven't you got anything better to do than mislead 08ers? *nudges* Hehehe. Only joking. :o But seriously though, just because I'm buying all of mine brand-new with the intention of keeping them all for ever and ever, doesn't mean you should do the same. Those MATH1902 books that you picked up...

    Function of Function Rule?

    Yes, you add 1 to n when integrating - but notice that the integral is 1 OVER 8u3? In order to integrate, it must be written in the standard xn form. If we do that, it becomes (1/8)u-3. Now if you proceed to carry out integration by adding 1 to the index and dividing by the new index, you will...

    That should have been [(6 - y)/4]2 I've attached the solution.

    Definite Integrals???

    Hmm.. BOS isn't letting me upload the explanations/solutions in .pdf even though it's only a quarter of the size limit. Gimme your email and I'll send it over.

    Help! Please

    Choose the subject that you enjoy learning and are doing well in - Ancient History in this case. In my opinion, scaling should be one of the last things considered in terms of subject selection - and it should only be considered if your interest and strength in two subjects are equal. Yes...

    Conics question

    But it only takes about half a dozen lines to prove the chord of contact formula! Somehow the discriminant method doesn't sound very pleasant to me in this case. Let's just think about what we need to do before we do it. This is a fairly standard procedure, I think: 1. Take a random linear...

    Physic and Ext 2

    Sadly, the same applies to all other HSC science subjects. They should allow extension units for the sciences for students who want to learn some real science.

    Physic and Ext 2

    I actually had the same concern last year that I might find Mechanics difficult because I didn't do Physics, but I turned out all right. I'd even say it's one of my favourite topics from MX2. :read: At the beginning I did find force diagrams a bit confusing - but mostly because text book...

    Isotopes

    I'm quite glad you raised this question - most chemistry students are satisfied with the explanation that "the stability based upon the neutron/proton (n/p) ratio". This is what all text books stop at and I was never content with that answer because "why is the stability based upon the...

    products-to-sum-question

    Man, you crack me up. @ kooltrainer: Anyway, if he insists on rewriting the given integral using products-to-sums: sin(mx)cos(nx) = 0.5{sin[(m + n)x] + sin[(m - n)x]} It's still an odd function made up of odd bits, regardless of whether or not m=n or how you manipulate it. Perhaps...

    Differentiation :Help please! :>

    Lol. Thanks. :) It does make me wonder how messy your writing must be.

    products-to-sum-question

    Where's this question from? I think either way the integral is 0. Let f(x) = sin(mx) f(-x) = sin(-mx) = -sin(mx) f(-x) = -f(x) .: odd function Let g(x) = cos(nx) g(-x)=cos(-nx)=cos(nx) g(-x)=g(x) .: even function We know that odd function x even function = odd function. We also know that...
