    a(x+1) +b(x-2)=4x + 1 a +b=4 --->a=4-b a-2b=1 4 -3b=1 ---> b=1, a=3 hence [3/(x-2) + 1/(x+1)] Question: The probability of a win is 27%. What is the probability that Bobbie will win 3 or more games out of 5.

    Prototyping - a working model of the system is first created and tested, participants then are able to comment on what else is needed/changes that need to be made to the system. hence makes the system better as its based on the participants needs, also participants are less wary of the new...

    Client-server architecture is the software relationship between the user and the server. The user sends a request(transmitting) to the server(protocol is first agreed upon) and the server responds(receiving). [feel free to expand on this since I've never studied this] Question: Describe four...

    A few applications of calculus questions..

    For question 20, the answer i got is 55033.66; i think its close enough, they probably rounded off early? anyways a=10e^2t v=5e^2t + C when t=0, v=-2 ---> C= -7 v=5e^2t -7 x=(5/2)e^2t -7t +C when t=0, x =4 ---> C=2.5 x=95/2)e^2t -7t +2.5 when t=5sec, x=55033.66m

    Opposite of absolute value function

    lol I didn't think of this. I was thinking this question was abit hard for general :haha:

    Opposite of absolute value function

    By opposite do you mean inverse? If inverse, then you just exchange the x's and y's, then rearrange to make y the subject. i.e. f(x) = -3 l x - 6 l + 2 x= -3 ly - 6 l +2 x = -3(y-6) +2 x=-3y +20 y=(20-x)/3 ---> f(x) = (20-x)/3 The other answer f(x) = -3 l x - 6 l + 2 x= -3 ly - 6 l +2 x =...

    Civil Engineering..

    oh ok. Sucks if you cant for uts.. dunno whether to put down civil or civil(structures). When applying for the RTA full degree scholarship, does this only apply to the civil major or does it apply to structures as well?

    Civil Engineering..

    Hello, For civil, can one pick the civil major and then specialize in structures after they have started their course? Or do you have to pick civil(structures) in the first place?
