oh and fair test......i tihnk it would really seperate the smarter students from the weak ones.....i tihnk i got 60-65

And you sir, are the weak one with that mark.

did anyone get 6 b) iii) to be n(n-1)(2n-1)/3

where did the 6 in the denominator come from :s

3! = 6

6 in the demoniator was from 3!

Edit: Ah, beaten

But if you sub in x=1 then y=1 and how can it if its an asymptote

There you go.

It's y=1 as x approaches infinity (read what Aplus said). Now stfu.

There you go.

Exactly what I got

1-4 were fairly easy
5a i fucked around with for too long before realizing i was doing it wrong LOL
5b was alrite i redid it at the end and ran out of time on part 3
6a was pretty easy
6b - ROFL.. wtf were the dots that confused the shit out of me
7 - get a few marks for the first part and b part 1

the rest was fucked lmaoo

maths done for hsc =)

The graph passes the asymptote, goes up to a max turning point and then goes down approaching y=1

EDIT: i am too slow lol

Hahaha suck fucking shit, idiot. Now get on your knees and suck my dick.

get over ur self bro... dont knock my friend

 

[untouchablecuz]

ah Goddamit

i wrote 3!=3

 

[imsleepyz]

gay didn't see a question =.= 3 marks gone plus 4-5 marks on silly mistakes FML

 

[daryl-d]

I originally got that bu then i realised it wasn't 3 but 3! which equals 6

 

[untouchablecuz]

dh/dt = -k

right?

and 5. b) iv) was 100 days, right

Yeah i did get y=1 but i wasnt sure how a graph could cross an asymptote

The test was better than I expected. I thought it would have been hardcore difficult and messy. It wasn't extremely hard and it wasn't easy as well. It just fit smack bang in the middle of the two but I agree there was plenty of tricks. I loved the binomial theorem! Question seven definitely was a killer and I think I struggled with 5 b) but besides that, the test paper wasn't as messy as I thought.

I hope everyone went well... this course seriously sucks up a lot of work and energy, two flipping years! =]

Good luck with the rest of the exams guys! Look on the bright side... maths is done for now! Best wishes guys!

oo nicee...OMG i thought (+,-root3, 3/2) is below 1

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG ==

omg

me too

am i lost or what

-.-

 

[daryl-d]

did anyone else think the circle question was a rip off from "the football and circle' question from Fitzpatrick, the solutions to that question are in the 4 Unit resources section

 

[kryptunite]

What was the horizontal asymptote?

y=1 i hope

 

[6tgyuio]

killing myself, i figured the last question just as i got out after i looked at it for 5 seconds, the rest of the paper was alright though
