Re: HSC 2014 4U Marathon
You got the second part of the question right, but the first part is wrong. Clearly, r>0, but the sides must also obey a condition.
Note: We can re-write the integral in this manner n+(n-1)x+(n-2)x^2+...+(n-(n-2))x^(n-2)+(n-(n-1))x^(n-1). Expanding, you obtain n(1+x+x^2+...+x^(n-1))-x(1+2x+3x^2+...+(n-1)x^(n-2))
I guess the strategy for the extension 2 exam, is to scrape as many marks as possible. Nobody will finish, so it's a matter of who can secure the most marks in the 3 hours lol.
