    maths 1131/1141

    That's true to an extent, but what I really meant by "quite handy" and "useful" is that some of those extra concepts/theorems taught in higher maths will be covered in subsequent maths courses, and several other new concepts/theorems will branch off these. If a student does some second year...

    maths 1131/1141

    If you do maths in the second year, then MATH1241 (Higher Maths 1B) will be somewhat beneficial over MATH1231 (Maths 1B). About MATH1131 vs MATH1141, I'm not so sure. For example, if you do any second year course on linear algebra, then the extension topics in MATH1241 algebra (such as...

    What General Education course do u recommend?

    I recommend GENS7602 (viewing earth through geology). I did it in winter session last year, and I enjoyed the field trips.

    polynomials

    p(x) is an even monic polynomial, if it's monic (the coefficient of the highest power of x is 1) and even (p(x) only contains even powers of x, or equivalently p(x) = p(-x)) e.g. x^6 + 3x^2 + 1 is an even monic polynomial. 3x^4 + x^2 is even, but not monic. x^3 + 5x^2 + 2 is monic, but not...

    2004 Session 2 - Results and WAM (4 UPDATES)

    The rest of the maths results have been released for me: MATH2509 (Linear Algebra for Engineers) - 90 (HD) MATH2520 (Complex Analysis) - 83 (D) MATH2859 (Probability & Stats) - 92 (HD) Strange, I thought I did better in the MATH2520 exam than in the MATH2859 exam.

    2004 Session 2 - Results and WAM (4 UPDATES)

    If you have a good grasp of complex numbers at MATH1131/1141 or 4U HSC level, then MATH2520 is not hard at all. It's basically like first year calculus, but generalised to complex valued functions instead of just real functions (with some new theorems). Hope they fix it soon.

    2004 Session 2 - Results and WAM (4 UPDATES)

    MATH2509 (Linear Algebra for Engineers) - 90 HD :D They still haven't released marks for my other two maths subjects MATH2859 (Prob & Stats) and MATH2520 (Complex Analysis).

    Question..

    The subspace W is equal to span{a,b,c,d}, where: a = [1, 1, 1, 1], b = [0, -1, -1, -1], c = [0, 0, 1, -1] To produce an orthonormal basis for W using the Gram Schmidt method, you do the following: 1. Take one of the vectors, say a, and divide by its norm to get q1. q1 = a/|a| 2...

    2000 HSC Q 7a ii

    i) F = Au^3 + B/u You wish to find the value of u that minimises F (the fuel used in a given amount of time), which is equivalent to maximising the time taken given a fixed amount of fuel. dF/du = 3Au^2 - B/u^2 setting dF/du = 0, 3Au^4 = B, u = (B/3A)^(1/4) km/h ii) In this case...
