either sando or soulsearcher can post up the next question
sando said:ok then.
Q: A plant grows so that it increases its height each month by 0.2 of its previous month's height. If it grows to 3m, find its height in the first month
Soulsearcher, you're not quite right. But since the question was a little badly worded, that's OK.sando said:ok then.
Q: A plant grows so that it increases its height each month by 0.2 of its previous month's growth (the question doesn't work if it's 0.2 of the height - it'll just keep growing bigger and bigger, right past 3m - I_F). If it grows to 3m, find its height in the first month
Ahh I get where I had gone wrong. That'll teach me to pay more attention to the question Anyways, I'll do this questioninsert-username said:Next question:
Find the exact length of the line from the point (2,7) to the centre of the circle x2 + 4x + y2 - 6y - 3 = 0

this might not be right, but here goes...my 2 centsSoulSearcher said:Ahh I get where I had gone wrong. That'll teach me to pay more attention to the question Anyways, I'll do this question
Next Question:
A game is played in which two coloured dice are thrown once. The six faces of the blue die are numbered 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 12. The six faces of the pink die are numbered 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13. The player wins if the number on the pink die is larger than the number on the blue die.
(i) Calculate the probability of the player winning a game
(ii) Calculate the probability that the player wins at least one in two successive games.

Question 6
(a) given θ is actue.
(I) write sin(θ/2) in terms of cosθ
(ii) prove that tan(θ/2) = sinθ / (1 + cosθ)
(iii) if sinθ = 4/5, find the value of tan(θ/2)
hint for 2U people:
Consider double angle formulae --> sin2@ = 2sin@cos@
cos2@ = 1 - 2sin2@ = 2cos2@ - 1 = cos2@ - sin2@
okay...heres my 2 cents.Glen88 said:Prove (d^2 y / dx^2) - 4(dy/dx) - 5y - 10 = 0 given that y = 3e^(5x) - 2
ill take a shot even thou i havent learnt it yet...Solve ==> 2x/(x-2) > 1
