Twinkegal19 recorded a VIDEO.

I know I shouldn't be posting here but FUCK, GRAPH f(1/x)? WTF?

I thought Q11 was hard lol...
If you look in the 2009 HSC paper Question 3(a), they have a very similarly styled question, where we have f(g(x)) instead of the usual g(f(x)).

So for example, students are typically used to sketching things like:

I still haven't had a chance to finish it, but I've read through it all and tried most of it. I've got a few specific questions, but I'll save them for the actual thread. In the meantime, here's some reactions my friend had to both papers:

"I HAVE TO SOLVE A MOTHER FUCKING CUBIC IN QUESTION 11a)?? NO BITCH. YOU FUCK RIGHT OFF"
"I DON'T WANNA FUCKING DO POLYNOMIAL DIVISION. There is no fucking way."
"No I am not subjecting myself to this. FUCK YOU CARROTSTICKS FUCK YOU AND YOUR BULLSHIT MATHS PAPERS"
"sin^2x+cos^2x=1. OH THANK YOU I JUST SAT THROUGH 10 OF YOUR GODAWFUL MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS BUT THAT'S VERY HELPFUL"
"mkV^4? Carrotsticks is a cunt."
"That is complete bullshit. I'm not going near it."

So yeah, I think your paper did exactly what you wanted it to. Good work!

Interested to see the paper. Will probably have a go at it tonight. By the sounds of the reactions, I will probably shoot myself before I finish it though lol

What was relatively harder guys, 3 unit or 4 unit?
3 unit definitely. I think I got a very similar raw mark for both... Comparing normal 3U papers to Carrot's 3U paper was a MUCH bigger jump than normal 4U papers to Carrot's 4U paper imo. Though they were both insane and very well written
