In my opinion, AAA would be fair if it was restricted to rural school and schools comparable to these. The current system just seems ridiculous. Students in schools such as Ashfield Boys and Canterbury Boys are only disadvantaged because they don't have a competitive study environment (though...

When did you submit your application for raw marks? I want to know when I'm getting mine =/

Im interested for eco and chem

Do you guys think an atar of 99.65 will make the cut off? >.> I'm quite depressed at the moment that I might miss out on my desired course.

same but for 7 I had D

The sulfate ion ppt's with quite alot of other substancesin neutral/ alkaline solution. Also, carbonates in water may react with barium to form barium carbonate, preventing the formation of baSo4. Adding an acid ill decompose the carbonate. If you make the mixture acid, you reduce the amount of...

From my understanding, as public goods and non-rival and non-excludeable, the cost of providing the good to an extra consumer is zero (as they can just free ride). This makes the marginal cost zero meaning firms are reluctant to produce public goods.

Sorry I don't think I made my point very clear... The decreased government spending is contractionary...I don't see how it is not. Even last year's budget was deemed contractionary (see leading edge text book for explanation) You said a contractionary stance is "government wants to decrease...

I don't think the definition of a contractionary stance is when the government wants to decrease economic activity in the economy but quite simply when T>G. Even if it isn't Mr Swans intent to decrease economic growth, the economy will still slow down because of the Budget (more so than the...

go to hsc marking guidelines, there are sample and m.c. answers.

Inflation is always calculated from a base year where the CPI is 100. So the increase in price CPI is: Food: 120-100= 20, etc. times this by the weighing factor to get which group contributes the most.

I wrote around 750 words for my module C and I got 19/20. Through the marker's comment was that I didn't have enough textual references/ examples. so yeah. 850 words should be possible for 20/20.

It's irony. Machines can't be more human than human than a Bladerunner. However, it this line is also open to another interpretation - technique: "equivocation" (where the meaning is uncertain) They are "more human" in the sense that they are stronger, faster, smarter, etc.

1. MPC = change in C/ Change in Y = (180-150)/ (600-500) = 0.3 In year 3, change in Y = 60 MPC = 0.3 = 60/ (change in Y) Change in Y = 60/ 0.3 = 200 200+ 600 = 800 (C) 2. Inflation is the change in CPI from the base year. So, you calculation the change: {CPI(current) - CPI(base)}/CPI...

No. Whey borrow from the private sector, they sell first hand government securities. This is sold under a tender system to basically anyone (people who are willing to buy at the highest price and lowest interest return are sold first until the government can fund its planned deficit.) In the...
