    Determine the empirical formula

    Mass of magnesium is 32.63-32.14=0.49g, mass of oxygen=32.95-32.63=0.32g. So how many moles do you have? Divide mass by the atomic weight of magnesium (24.3), and you get 0.0201. Divide g of oxygen by atomic weight (16.0), and you get a mole number of 0.0200. Divide by the small quantity to...

    Maths question HELP PLEASE!! CARROTSTICKS??? ARE YOU THERE???

    But, if they specified in the question show THIS is (One of the equations) of PQ, does that mean we have to specifically derive that one? Or is it okay if I have manually done one? anyway how does this "Alternative" way work?

    Maths question HELP PLEASE!! CARROTSTICKS??? ARE YOU THERE???

    Oh cos in a question I found, "Point R(x,y) divides P(x1,y1) and Q(x2,y2) into ratio k:l. Show k/l=(y-y1)/(y2-y)." So I got that bit, then it says, "Hence show equation of the line PQ is (x-x1)(y-y2)=(y-y1)(x-x2)" I ignored hence cos I thought it was unnecessary if you already have PQ, but...

    Maths question HELP PLEASE!! CARROTSTICKS??? ARE YOU THERE???

    Oh and a random question, when R splits up interval PQ into the ratio k:l, does k/l have anything to do with the equation of PQ?

    Should English be compulsory??

    Completely against english in yr 12, it is potentially ruining the future's of very bright children, who just lack a proficiency in english, and because of this their ATAR is pulled down and they cant get into University courses. The smart thing to do would be to accelerate the HSC course in...

    Maths questions help please!

    Oh yay! thanks :D Next bit confusing though, if (tana)/2=(tanb/3)=(tanc/4)=k, show k=(sqrt6)/4, then hence find the size of angle a in degrees and minutes. Hmm so sorry if im inconveniencing you guys!

    Random quiiestions from maths assignments help!

    Not quite sure what you mean here. Erm, basically its a scalene triangle within another scalene triangle, such that the smaller one is similar to the larger one. The similarity is easily proven by the two sets of corresponding angles, though I have to prove that the two lines that cross the...
