    qn

    if the discriminant is positve you get 2 solutions, ie the line cuts the parabola (which means it's not a tangent because all tangents to a parabola meets it only once) if the discriminant is negative it means there are no solutions, again not a tangent. so when the line is a tangent, the...

    But it could be shorter[think about why this works!]: we want a such that the equations has 1 double solution for (x,y): x^2 = 4ay x-y+3=0 ie the discriminant of: x - (x^2/4a) + 3 = 0 is 0 (1 + 3/a) = 0 a = -3

    combined actuarial studies/mathematics

    what exactly do you want to do? maybe there's another program which is better suited. You shouldn't really deviate from the sample plan for the first 3 years, perhaps with the exception of not doing MATH3901 which pretty much repeats ACTL2003. You can try to overload though. I pulled Linear...

    Opportunity cost of doing a 5-yr combined degree

    First to correct a mistake you have with your estimation -> you have living expenses whether you are at university or not, so it's really 90K instead of 140K. remembering that parent's money comes out of your inheritance. secondly, things aren't as clear cut as you set it out to be. For...

    Comparison of Maths Ext 2 books

    I didn't think of mathematicians when I suggested it. Not looking at solutions might frustrate someone at the beginning, but will pay off quite soon. It's apparent from those I tutor. The ones who do the exercises themelves tend to be slow at the beginning but eventually better than their peers...
