+ 1 I guess it really boils down to whether the position of the arms and hands, in the circumstances, was natural. One could argue that because the arms and hands were outstretched, they weren't in a natural position and so its a deliberate handball. The flip side is that it is natural for a...

If your uni has a debating or public speaking student society/club, I suggest you join it. Should get plenty of adjudicating opportunities there. Meet new friends, brush up on your debating skills, and it should be all good.

With Q1, you won't get a quadratic function. You will get something hideous YUCK. you MUST use diff, it can't be done any other way. WithQ2, you will get a quadratic, so you can use the vertex method. No need for dif (although it is way easier to dif) With Q3, same with Q2. You will get a...

Yes, my bad, you are correct. it is x+1 rather than 3x - 1

Actually, it's gonna be a series of geometric series. The answer that I've got is (3x - 1)/[(x-1)^2], assuming that |x| < 1.

(1 - 3 x - 4 x^2 )( 1 + 2/x )^6 = 1 - 3x well, you've got to get the constant terms - you need to find the right 'pairings' when you multiply the two binomial terms (the quadratic, and the one with power of 6) to get the independent terms. So, with 1 --> pair up with 6C0(1)^6 with - 3x -->...

I agree with the people who said to work hard at your maths in year 7 - 10 --> you WILL struggle with prelim and HSC maths if you don't get your fundamentals right. I would argue the same goes with English, particularly concentrating on language techniques and essay writing. Other subjects? Not...

Re: Branded as "stupid" in law school?? I was a full-fee paying student last year at USyd doing Laws, and no-one really makes a big deal out of it, even the UAIs. The talk about UAIs stop at "What was your UAI?...Oh, ok.". And there is even less talk about CSP or DFEE places. No-one gives a...
