Reading your essays OUTLOUD is scientifically the best method for memorisation, since it uses more of your senses. Read it out a fair few times and it will stick like glue. That's what i done

Your a fuckwit, obviously you have no idea what kind of contact hours engineering degrees entail and how much study, assessments and preparation that goes into it. If he pumps weights on a sunday that may be relexation time, release from all the follies of university. He lives at home = not as...

People from school (that either left at the end of yr 10 or are deferring a yr before uni) are doing fuck all, still bumming around, haven't moved on... Whilst they've been doing i've been working 55-70 hours/weeks for 8 months in a field that i want to enter after uni (currently deferring a...

our school used it and there were alot of good maths people, they didn't use other books either, so i kinda agree, its not that bad

I really don't like this shit thread but heres a moderate Ex.1 kinda Q that i found: Find the value of x: [(0.2)^(x-0.5)]/rt 5=5(0.04)^(x-1) P.S: Lost all respect for O.P

Re: Westpac Maths Comp marathon Consider polynomial: P(x)=x^4-4x^3+8x^2+(8/3)x+a0 S1=a+b+c=4 --> S1-4=0 S2=a^2+b^2+c^2=10 -->S2-4(S1)+16=0 S3=a^3+b^3+c^3=22 --> S3-4(S2)+8(S1)+8=0 S4=a^4+b^4+c^4=x --> S4-4(S3)+8(S2)+(8/3)S1+4(y)=0 S4=88-80-32/3-4a0 S4=-(8/3+4a0)...

It's more used for Q where: -P(x) given -trying to find x1,x2,x3,...,xn Link: Newton's sums - AoPSWiki

Theres also a method called "Newtons Sums" to find the sum of roots when given a P(x)

Can anyone think of a way to integrate this without sub, i just thought of one.
