I've given a response in PM's. Happy to answer other's. Alternatively, donkily can post my response if he likes.

Probability, statistics and financial mathematics is what you'll likely be using in your day-to-day work. If you do economics that is important. Moreover, you need to have some basic understanding of writing and reading code (e.g. VBA, SQL and more). Excel will be your tool of choice (at least...

ACTL4002: Was an ok exam, typically John Evans questions which have nothing to do with the course but you somehow need to string together multiple topics to answer briefly. Hope 75+ MATH3311: Was ok, came out confident. Hope 80+ Next up, ECON2206

10 is the correct answer, as the answer sheet alludes

could u elaborate?

How many times must a coin be tossed until the probablility of getting 2 or more heads exceeds 0.99? cheers

anyone.. please finish it so i get this crap

ok well i'm missing something obvious LOL

could you finish that? i completed it but am not getting their answer.. so i'm making some silly mistake as usual... thanks

Hey anyone... INT (e^x cosx) dx thanks oh and... a subsitution one use u = t - t^-1 to solve INT ( ( 1+t^2) / (1+ t^4) ) cheers

thankyou very much u geniuses

nope - cuz i get down to the final step, but i have a 3k^2 - so i can't factor a 6 out... hmm and when i factorise i get x(x+1)(x+2) obviosuly one of these are divisible by 3 - buti don't thnk i can make the assumption that anything divisible by 3 is divible by 6... obviously ...hmm...

Thanks, but i just finished that question myself :D I did it much mroe easily with implicit, but thankyou very much

Prove, by M.I that if n is a whole number then, n^3 + 3n^2 +2n is divisible by 6 Prove this same result without M.I by first factorising. 2. A wire of length 100cm is cut into 2 pieces of length x and y. THe peice of length x is bent into the shape of a square and the y peice into...

thankyou

root((k+1)/2) - root((k-1)/2) = root (k - root(k^2-1))
