    Curve sketching

    Solve it as a quadratic instead (which is almost sketching it anyway). 3x(x - 2) gives you x intercepts of 0 and 2. Use x=-b/2a (formula for axis of symmetry) to get the min/max value, in this case its -1. That means you have a concave up parabola with y values > 0 when x < 0 and x > 2. Maybe...

    just a question about uni classes..

    Usually most don't care. Managing to get a day off in 1st year engineering is quite a feat. Congratulations. ps. You'll be buggered by week 4, thats if you're still showing up to class.

    How do deaf people Learn at Uni?

    OT, but there was a lecturer at UNSW that was deaf (only heard this 2nd hand), she had an assistant and interpreted what students said to her in sign language. Funny thing is most students didn't realise she was deaf until she said...

    Valentines Day

    yer it was a bit out the blue. We had our problems when I was there, mainly with her finding time to spend together rather than with her friends. Bit more complicated than that though, still a bit out of the blue. Not sure if I should just let Thursday pass if nothing happens then.

    Myspace vs Facebook

    Are these social networking things really that addictive? I've avoided getting any sort of social networking account because I reckon I'll waste too much time on it...how is it different to talking to people normally? ...and all the privacy things I keep reading about fb creeps me out.

    Urgent Class Enrolment Stuff!

    Are you enrolling for semester 1 or semester 2? I'm guessing semester 1. You don't enrol in 1231/1241 until you've done 1131/1141.

    another laptop thread :P

    If your old laptop was only lasting that long then its probably because the battery was getting old. Batteries are consumables and they can't hold as much charge when they get older. I guess depending on how old your laptop is (or whether you really want a new laptop!) you might be able to get...

    Computer problem

    They're usually temperature related beeps as you've found. Try see if something like SpeedFan supports your motherboard so you can keep an eye on the temperature.

    another laptop thread :P

    Have the brands mentioned in the other laptop threads sparked your interest? Any modern laptop would have at least 2 to 3 hours of battery life so 50 minutes is nothing in comparison.

    It depends on your program. Some use the NSS WAM, some others use some other weighting or have their own WAM system.

    General Education (Gen Ed) FAQ

    Depends on your program. Some let you do them whenever you want. If you don't care what you do it might be easy, but if theres particular gen eds you want to do it might be hard to find 4 that don't clash as well.
