I thought this first one would be easy
8 pink beads and 8 white beads make up a necklace.
how many ways can the necklace be made if;
i) there are no restrictions (2 sig. fig.)
i thought 16! -> but thats the wrong solution??
ii) pink and white alternate
i thought 8!.8! x2
meh...
ok if e is where the max is, then every other solution must be under it
so consider what f(e) = ln e / e = 1/e therefore the max point is (e,1/e)
therefore it follows all points are under this point
ln x / x < 1/e
then work through
there is alot to talk about, far too much to type
here some starter material -

I've done this, jst thought i'd let you's have a crack for .... fun
By considering (1-x)^n (1 +1/x)^n
express,
(n 2)(n 0) - (n 3) (n 1) +...+ (-1)^n (n n) (n n-2) where (n n) = nCk
in simplest form
Who knows, my teacher said that they'll most probably go 2 religious rites from 2 religious traditions, and make it a 20 marker.... cuz lately thats what they are doing (so she says).
;) god i hate chemistry :(
Oh and the practical is testing various saccharides (spelling?) with Benedicts solution, if the sugar is reducing, it will cause the Copper ions to reduce in the solution causing the colour to go browny - hope that helps
(you dont really need to know the...
