    I've only made notes on the 'students learn about' section. How do I make notes on the 'students learn to' section? How important is it?

    I make notes under the dot points of 'students learn about', and then practice the questions under 'students learn to'. That 2nd column is very directive and is very good for writing practice essays on. It's almost a checklist - can you sufficiently respond to and elaborate on those 'students...

    would anyone know??

    Are you referring to the death of Roberto Curti (2010)? I literally just say 'Death of Roberto Curti' when referencing it, I don't know the case name.

    confusion with part ii of this q

    @amdspotter |z-a| = |z-b| is a locus of numbers where the distance to a is the distance to b, for any point on the locus. Obviously the midpoint of a and b is included, and it follows that the perpendicular bisector of the a and b retains the same distance from a and b.

    for such simple q is working out ever required or plug into calc and write answer is enough

    At the very least, part (iii) is more than just writing the answer, because you would write \frac{6}{1-i} and then have to realise the denominator. For (i) and (ii) it never hurts to put more information if you're afraid of losing a mark.

    Mindblank - how would i find the sq root of 'i'.

    You were on the right track with equating parts; x^2 - y^2 = 0 x^2 = y^2 Suggesting that the Real and Imaginary parts of your root will be equal or opposite in sign. 2xy = 1 xy = 1/2 Hence, x = y = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} or x = y = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} This can be verified by thinking about roots...

    Complex calculator

    I have an FX 82-AU and it can do complex. It involves using the buttons 'POL' (polar form) and 'REC' (rectangular form).

    Binomial expansion Question: Expand (1+2x-x^2)^5 in ascending powers of x as far as the term containing x^4

    Treat it as (1+(2x-x^2))^5 Then use the methods you would use for any (1 + x)^n expansion. You may end up having to apply BE multiple times. Hopefully someone can provide a more efficient method.

    Old resources website

    I could get this far using an internet archive link. Whether the actual pages for resources are archived or not is something that you'll have to try yourself, because most pages are dead ends. https://web.archive.org/web/20201128121522/http://139.99.203.12/yr12/adt-resources/Resource-Collection/

    NSW teachers proposing a strike on the 7th of December

    Disagree. Just because most students slacked off does not mean that every teacher had an easy lockdown. Maybe it became a bludge for some lazy teachers, but I know a lot of year advisors and head teachers had a lot of stress.

    Calculators

    It just died on you without any warning? That's pretty scary. Are you sure the screen wasn't fading or there wasn't any other indication of low battery?

    Planning eco essays by using a 'central essay'?

    So it seems a single essay for each chapter is ineffective. What should I aim to make each plan based on instead? I was thinking of commonly asked broad essay questions, and then doing about 2-3 essay plans for each chapter.

    Planning eco essays by using a 'central essay'?

    My plan for making eco essay plans is to focus on just a single 'central essay' for each chapter. It would be a very broad question that I can easily adapt. For example, my economic growth central essay would be; Explain the causes and effects of economic growth in the last 10 years, as well as...

    i may have made a mark below the line it says not to make a mark

    Looking at past scanned papers of student reponses, the parts outside of those bolded borders in the corners are generally included, but that grey area is not.

    Short Answer Essentials

    To add to this, a person in a visual text is literally free marks. There is just so much you can talk about - gaze, gesturing, expression, posture, clothing, how characteristics of different people in the visual are the same or different and what this represents etc.

    Difficult induction question, or maybe I'm just missing something simple?

    I was experimenting with trying to make difficult questions for my own practice and then found that this seemed to work. But then I struggled to prove it lol.

    Is there any point of doing an Economics degree if you can get into a Bachelor of Commerce?

    How much would I have to narrow this down in order to choose a degree/major? I haven't really thought about this in depth. I was thinking something analytical because I'm good with maths and data/statistics, but I also like the news and events side of economics.
