e^2x= 1
take ln on both sides
2x = ln 1
x = 0


e^2x= -2
take ln on both sides
2x = ln (-2)
No solutions

Sorry I made that question up, that's why solutions are weird lol but it's good practise I guess :)

Oh so it is 2x, thanks :)

There is one thing which I absolutely cannot do no matter how much I practice: proving trig identities. That will be the reason I fail HSC maths.

1) should know all your identities
2) do as much practise as you can

Good luck with HSC :)

I do know all of them, but I always take myself in the wrong direction when applying them. The easier - medium ones I can do, but HSC level ones I can't.

Aaaand yeah, kinda wish I didn't do Industrial Technology or English Standard since they scale poorly, and also since I want to do engineering I should've done MX1 and MX2.

Its alright, first year math isn't very hard (I did 4u, and no its not just me who says that-even 2unit ppl say its not very hard)

For now, just concentrate on your HSC, don't stress about uni :p

Let me know if you need any help with anything :)
