    4u Mathematics Marathon V 1.0

    i'm not sure why you used 1/(26!)2 :confused: im guessing you said that we should sort the lower case letters and then the upper case letters, right? I said 52! because i considered each letter as an individual in one whole set rather than labelling them upper or lower case and then sorted them...

    [DO NOT USE!] Cheating methods [PURELY HUMOUR!]

    For the second one: (a-b)2>=0 (a-b)2 + 4ab>=4ab (a+b)2>=4ab a+b>=(4ab)/(a+b) .: 1/b + 1/a>=4/(a+b) New Question: A particle of weight 4 newton, intiially at rest, falls vertically in a resisting medium with a retarding force of kv newton, where k is a constant and v m/s is the velocity of...

    For the first one: Arranging lower case letters in alphabetical order= 1 way Arranging upper case letters in alphabetical order= 1 way Arranging these two sets amongst themselves = 2 ways .: Total = 2 ways Arranging of letters without restriction = 52! .:P(upper and lower in order)= 2/52!

    Choosing a text

    Ok, i read somewhere that we can't choose the road not taken or the journey to the interior from the stimulus booklet because they're poems. Is this true?

    sorry i meant the part where you actually find the exact values of cos(2pi/5) and cos(4pi/5). :p

    Ok and how about this... Show that cos 5@=16cos5@-20cos3@+5cos@. Hence solve the equation 16x5-20x3+5x-1=0 and deduce the exct values of cos(2pi/5) and cos(4pi/5). I'm stuck on the second part.

    nah there aren't any... thats it... i got square roots n stuff so i jst gave up n assumed i was wrong because it just looked to "retarded" :p

    Polynomials

    the problem i had was actually finding the value of one of the roots.. in ur working out that would be 'b'. From (1) would you expand and then use the quadratic?

    Polynomials

    ok how do you do this one P(x)=x4+px3+qx2+rx}s=0 has two roots which are reciprocals and two other roots which are opposites. Show that q=1+s and r=ps. I know that you have to use the relationship between the coefficients and roots but i think im mucking up with the algebra. Can someone have a...

    For the first part of the second image: (x-y)2=>0 .: x2+y2-2xy=>0 .: x2+y2=>2xy Let x=x2 and y=y2 .: x4+y4=>2x2y2 I can't read the second part... it comes up blurred

    Hiya, how would you go about answering this: Sketch the graphs of x2-y2=0 and xy=2 on the same axes. By observing the number of points of intersection of the graphs, deduce that the equation of z2=4i has at least one root (in fact two roots). Now what i did is i drew the curves and they...
