    Please Help! :D Polynomial Question

    This can be solved much simpler by sum and product of roots ie sum of roots ---> -2 + 3 + a = -16/p product of roots ---> -6a = 120/p p = -20/a sub p into the first equation 1 + a = -16/(-20/a) 1 + a = 4a/5 1 = -a/5 a = -5

    So here's my situation.

    I feel sorry for you bro. In terms of studying, I find practice papers for maths is the best, just do as many questions and varieties of questions that you can. For English just practice writing essays by hand, fixing them up in 5min to prepare for exam like conditions and then hand them in for...

    Prelim Topics and HSC

    The topics arent necessarily tested, but your understanding of year 11 concepts sure will be. Like kurosaki said, molar calculations are taught in year 11 but are used throughout year 12. Preliminary economics is almost all theory, and a lot of year 12 is applying that theory to the Australian...

    Is my physics exam unfair?

    I remember my physics yearly preliminary exam. Our teacher gave us a practice exam to test, and around 4/25 people did the exam. Sure enough, the actual exam was a direct copy of that exam. I scored 100%, and some others got 98%. Some bitched and moaned, I held by my stance that they were...

    Police Brutality - Disgusting and Unacceptable

    Although I dont think many people know the full context of what happened that night, that is still unacceptable behaviour from police. Im not sure that officer 266 is the only one committing a crime though, all the other cops are just hanging around and telling the guy to stop filming. Although...

    The Walking Dead

    Season 3 mid-season premiere was terrible. I can't believe they made the fans wait months, and then we were given that crappy episode. However it is definitely picking up, loved the last episode.

    Will the HSC marks and ATAR be severely affected by getting 0 for assessment?

    The last position did exist, but the final rank is the only one used for the moderated assessment mark. Just means you have to work harder to get a higher ranking by the end of term 3. Remember - every assessment counts

    Will the HSC marks and ATAR be severely affected by getting 0 for assessment?

    Yeah. Don't think of all these school assessments as trying to gain the highest mark - save that for the HSC. All you're doing now is attempting to get the highest ranking possible for each of your subjects. This means coming first or having as small a gap as possible between you and first in...

    Will the HSC marks and ATAR be severely affected by getting 0 for assessment?

    The short response is no for the max mark of 97.5/100 This is because the marks you receive from school assessments aren't actually used in the calculation of HSC marks - only your ranks and the gaps between the ranks. If a person scores 0% in a 5% assessment and then goes on to lead the cohort...

    The Effects of Currency Speculation?

    I do eco by distance education so I've only met my teacher once in person, so if I flick him an email I have no idea where he gets the answer from. I remember the 95% figure because I sent him an email asking for that stat.

    The Effects of Currency Speculation?

    My eco teacher said to me that ~95% of trade in the currency market is speculation, and the other 5% is actual trading (for imports/exports) or central banking

    Best+Worst of Teacher Quotes and Habits

    Our English teacher was explaining the given/new concept and using the front of how to kill a mockingbird as an example. She covered up the black guy and said 'nice white lawyer' and then covered up the lawyer and said rather loudly 'SCARY BLACK MAN!!!' Oh man that was so funny
