    2015ers Chit-Chat Thread

    My apologies for making that comment Fiction seemed pissed off because she thought that we weren't friends of yours and then felt the need to back you up over teridax's comment I felt as if letting her know that we were friends would make her less aggressive in that we were joking around in...

    re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive "What do you mean by this?" I think he's referring to Technitium-99m being used as a radio-pharmaceutical - It can label certain molecules in the body such as iodine and it then accumulates in the thyroid gland. Through using PET this can be viewed through...

    re: HSC Chemistry Marathon Archive For A you want to find the equation where it is not an oxidising agent or reducing agent So you immediately draw to the conclusion that it is not involved in the reaction Drawing the net ionic equation for all three and see where water is eliminated (as it...

    Re: HSC 2015 3U Marathon Differentiate y = x^1/2 using first principles I've done questions similar to these and I find that the only way to approach it is by rationalising the numerator (Once I've inserted everything into the first principles formula) Can somebody confirm if there are any...

    Cambridge Prelim MX1 Textbook Marathon/Q&A

    Re: Year 11 Mathematics 3 Unit Cambridge Question & Answer Thread Also don't forget the asymptote at x = 0 !!! As for the stationary points Stationary points when dy/dx = 0 y' = 2x - (2 / x^3) 0 = 2x - (2 / x^3) Multiply both sides by x^3 0 = 2x^4 - 2 Factorise 0 = 2(x^4 - 1) 0...

    Re: Year 11 Mathematics 3 Unit Cambridge Question & Answer Thread Put it under a common denominator y = (x^4 + 1) / x^2 Like you would find the vertical asymptote, take the limit of x approaches infinity of the above equation In these situations when there's a pronumeral in the denominator...

    I don't think many people in year 8/10 use this website, unless there are of course people that have siblings those grades I think you're better off printing an advertisement and putting it somewhere in your school library or even local library if you can get the permission of the librarians :)
