2 careless mistakes

1st question I got wrong

Q1. Jon has a standard die. What is the probability that Jon gets a 5 when he throws the die?


Q2. The area of a triangle , I used the wrong perpendicular height

If you're getting that probability question wrong...

I know right, he was initially asking about how many hours he needs to spend studying extension 2 maths, and now he testing his maths ability based on year 9 NAPLAN...

 

[InteGrand]

He absolutely derailed the 3U marathon...

Well it (and the 2U one) were pretty much dead threads before his posts.

3rd Attempt at Naplan Non-Calculator , I got 29/32

 

[davidgoes4wce]

NAPLAN is no hit and giggle I tell ya.

Another silly make that I did wrong:

Q. The ratio of boys to girls enrolled in a course was 3 to 4. Three more boys enrolled in the course bringing the number of boys to 18. What is the ratio of boys to girls now>

A) 3 to 2 B) 3 to 4 C) 6 to 7 D) 9 to 10.

I'll admit I got lazy and didn't read the question thoroughly.

 

[davidgoes4wce]

The answer above was D) 9 to 10 if you guys wanted to know.

 

[davidgoes4wce]

I got 29/32 for the Calculator Section again.

One of the questions that I did wrong.

Q. The total area of all the faces of a cube is 24 m^2. What is the volume of the cube?

A) 8m^3 B) 36 m^3 C) 64 m^3 D) 216 m^3.

it's early Friday morning, that's my excuse for getting that one wrong. I'll admit it, I can't get 100% in any of these NAPLAN tests...and yes some of you guys will be laughing your socks off.

I have run out of trials but I have purchased Sami El Hosri's Year 9 NAPLAN and will strive for that Band 10 (100%).

 

[davidgoes4wce]

I will have a go again tomorrow to see if I can get that Band 10

You're being an idiot.

Just keep studying for your HSC. Your relationship with the naplan was over like 3 years ago, you've both separated, move on.

BOSTES actually get their questions from past NAPLAN tests.

Hmmm, I dunno, he's been posting his results are number of times, I haven't heard anyone re-doing their naplan paper in their senior years and beyond, lol who has time for that...

Even extension 2 maths questions?

 

[davidgoes4wce]

I think with maths no matter what level you are, you always want to 'improve'. I don't think you can ever honestly say 'I know everything in maths'. I think I gained a greater appreciation of maths by redoing more and more questions. I've been called 'weird' by people in the past, in that maybe I put my study ahead of my social life, family but it's just in my blood. I do questions, test papers, text books of all sorts and I actually live for maths, breathe for maths and it might not be a great level compared to other people, you can get called 'strange' or 'geniuses' by people who think you have an addiction to something.
