    Maths 4 Unit high/low marks

    At least an hour per week night. And when you have a class at school, you must revise the content of that class that very night.

    guys clothes

    LOL agree. Jon Kell, Yd, Mish Mash? That to me screams cheap-looking, woggy, lebby (no offence to anyone of course). All their stuff fits really poorly because it's mass-produced to the shithouse. Also, they need to get over all the rips and fraying and graffiti. mish mash is really in? I've...

    Cheating: What would you do?

    My mate is getting cheated on by his gf who I am also close to. I feel a really strong obligation to my mate to tell him, because if he is being lied to, or his trust is being violated, I feel it too. Know what I mean? Don't you feel that way? I find it hard to remain indifferent.

    Cheating: What would you do?

    I'm in the 2nd scenario and my instinct was to tell the cheatee. I thought that if I confronted the cheater he/she would deny it, cover his/her tracks and convince the other before I get the chance to talk to the cheatee. I want to ask but it's a difficult situation, I have to work it into a...

    Cheating: What would you do?

    Say you had a friend and you knew that their bf/gf was cheating on them. Do you tell him/her or not get involved at all? Say there's a couple and you are really close friends to both of them and one is cheating on the other. Do you tell the one being cheated on?

    How is your timetable?

    I'm doing an actuarial degree and I have to be at uni every weekday. I think there was no avoiding that because I had lectures everyday. Is that really the case or did I just not manipulate my timetable well enough?

    Actuarial Studies

    Wow this guy's keen.. only in yr 10. I'm not answering your questions but I can give you some advice. Don't narrow yourself to one career path, usually people's preferences change between yr 10 and 12. Their goals often change too including UAI aims. Or maybe you might not reach your goals...

    maths ext past hsc

    You lose a mark for a miscalculation but if further on in the question, you use that incorrect value and your method is still correct, you still gain marks in those parts. If in a particular year, it is really competitive, the markers would be stricter on things like that and they would...

    whats a good raw 4unit HSC mark?

    It's been frequently said that a lot depends on the quality of the candidature of the year. What exactly does this mean? So if I get 75/120 and the candidature is really good, what happens? Or if it is relatively poor?

    question on exponentials

    This function is a curve. When you use Simpson's rule you only take shapes/strips under the curve which are formed with straight lines as it sides. Meaning, you have boundaries for these strips (for this example 1.0, 1.5, 2.0). Vertical lines are drawn from these x values on the x-axis up to...

    question on exponentials

    Your 3 x values are 1.0 , 1.5 , 2.0 for x = 1.0 , y = e ---- y0 for x = 1.5 , y = 1.5e^1.5 ----- y1 for x = 2.0 , y = 2e^2 ----- yn Simpson's rule: integral approx = h/3[ y0 + yn + 4(odd) + 2(even)]...
