I also gotta say that at least in my opinion "A couple of times a Year" qualifies as "Rarely/Hardly Touched it"

I used it once as part of a school task for about 30 mins. I then used it a few times throughout year 12 but that was just for my own purposes of graph drawing for various personal projects and being too ceebs to get actual good software

I don't know what you mean by "Factor R on Factor S" but this is the way I would solve it: \text{Let the roots be }a,\,b,\text{ and }c\text{. It is given that }a = b + c \begin{align*}\\\text{By the sum of roots: }\\a + b + c &= \frac{-32}{4} = -8\\2a&= -8\\a &= -4 \end{align*}...

In my opinion, it's a slight technical aspect that wouldn't add much to your performance. I'm not sure as to whether you're allowed to have someone else toggle the lights during your performance, so at best it'll just be slightly awkward. My advice is to focus on your actual monologue (your...

NOTHING IS ORIGINAL EVERYTHING HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE HELP IM EXISTENTIAL ^ me having one of my many breakdowns trying to compose for music I can assure you, not everything has been done. Brainstorms might not work for everyone but they're a great place to start. Take the concept of a...

Well, first of all - if you know in advance you're going to struggle, don't leave it to the last minute. If you didn't think you would find it so difficult and you left it to the last minute (which you really shouldn't have) then you should contact your teacher, or whoever is in charge of the...

Re: UNSW chit chat thread 2017 When societies don't have a sticker for my ID card I feel betrayed and hurt Why even be a society if there's no sticker to add to my collection

Low key might be having an aneurysm from not touching maths for so long but is the question missing any information? For the first part: \begin{align*}&\frac{dy}{dx}\times\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dy}{dt}\\&(8-2x)\frac{dx}{dt} = 20\\&\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{10}{4-x}\end{align*}

I didn't do a single school related thing

The year 11 format is slightly different in each school, though generally the school will try to make it as similar to the year 12 format. In year 12, your pieces are marked internally (by your teacher) as you work on them, and then "externally" (by professional markers) for the HSC exams...

I can't think of something very satirical but I can totally think of all sorts of corrupt and bad things that can happen depending on how you define buying/selling time. Note that I interpret "time" as "time left to life", so sorry if that's not the interpretation you were going for. Does every...

Advanced Maths + Comp. Sci. @ UNSW ytbbbb

No worries, if you have any other questions feel free to shoot me a message :)

I finished the HSC last year, and I think the best tip I could give you for composition is to listen to as much music as you can in the style you want to compose in. If possible, read as much of the sheet music of those pieces as you can as well. You might not consciously know exactly how to...

The way to get the very best marks is to make it really obvious that you've used all the compositional techniques you possibly can - the composition itself can sound like crap, but if you've got heaps of obvious techniques all over the place the markers have no choice but to check their boxes...

lol

Almost. In Music 2 you have your 1 core composition, and 1 more if you choose to do it for your chosen elective topic. Your core is 2 minutes in length and your elective is 3. Both ideally get marked multiple times at school, before being sent over to the Board for HSC. In extension, if you...
