    Volume by Integration;

    Find the volume of the solid formed when the curve y=(x+5)² is rotated about the y-axis from y=1 to y=4. So far I've got; V = pi∫x²dy y = (x+5)² y = x² + 10x + 25 x² = y - 10x - 25 I'm stuck here - what do I do with the single x term? Thanks in advance

    Indefinite Integral Primitives?

    Find ∫x³(x^4 - 1)^8 dx I know the rule for finding ∫(ax+b)^n etc, but the x³ really throws me off. I could expand, but that'd be extremely tedious and most likely the wrong approach for the question. Thanks in advance!

    UOW Discovery Day

    I must've looked heaps gay in that class seriously. I was sitting next to a girl in a green top, if you saw me. The only thing I found interesting was the fact that value of body weight has completely reversed since the 1900's. The rest was pretty boring.

    Second was based on how society sees what a 'good' and 'bad' body image is in modern times compared to <1900's. It was weird for me since it had 95% girls in the class. This was more of a sociology topic. Fourth was great. It focused on things like body language and 'reading' people's...

    UOW Discovery Day

    It won't be as good as you think. Basically they'll just tell you what to do (ie write code or click buttons) for you to make some simple preset game which can be loaded onto an iPhone and played with the touch screen. If it's better than my presumption, let me know =P.

    Syllabus Dot Points~

    I doubt it, I go to a selective school. Completing and making dot point summaries are pretty much compulsory =P How should I practice this?

    Integration

    x = (1-y)(1+y) x = -(y-1)(y+1) .'. intercepts are 1 and -1 (integral with limits 1 and -1) (1-y²)dy = [-(y³/3) + y ] = (-1/3 + 1) - (1/3 - 1) = 4/3

    Syllabus Dot Points~

    Incoming major idiot query. If I were to study and remember all dotpoint answers for my science subjects, would it mean I'd do extremely well in the exams? Currently, it seems that all I need to do is browse a couple of resources to answer each point in the syllabus (I'm mainly referring to...
