    polynomial question =s

    I did it this way: P(3) = 4a - 11 = 1 a = 3 P(-1) = b = -11 b = -11 All polynomials take the form of P(x) = D(x)Q(x) + R(x) where D(x) is the divisor, Q(x) is the quotient, R(x) is the remainder Since P(x) is already in the form where D(x) = (x+1)(x-3) Then the remainder is simply P(x) =...

    what type of algorithms are we expected to write up

    Sorry, binary selection? Either you have no idea what you just stated, or you meant "binary search", binary selection is an "If" statement. You need to know the basic algorithm behind the sorts, Bubble works by comparing the value of the current index to (current index + 1) and swaps them if...

    How many words can you write in 40 minutes?

    1400 Words in 45 minutes is insane. Good to see people are averaging around the 900-1000 mark though, I wonder if I should apply for the ability to type the HSC instead of write it due to inlegible handwriting. I just practiced my 1000 word essay (in 40m 30s !) and I'm having trouble discerning...

    How many words can you write in 40 minutes?

    Consider a typical exam question for Paper 2 of English Advanced, where you have 3 essays to write and 40 minutes for each question. How many words can you write in 40 minutes? For me, i'm absolutely pushing it at about 920 words. I've done 1000 words in 40 minutes before but I could barely...
