    Econ200

    change in Q / change in p x p over q is the same thing as partial deriv of Q / partial deriv of p x p over q. THe triangle sign (delta) has the same meaning as that funny "d"

    ECON2101 textbooks (Varian 7e)

    No, that's not true. It's just a complement to the textbook. It gives a chapter by chapter summary followed by some exercises. Thanks.

    Advice on ECON200

    If you have Glenn Jones for the first half of the semester, you'll come to think of micro as the hardest thing ever. I remember sitting through his lectures without a clue in the world. But if you listen to iLecture and continually pause to absorb the material, he actually explains it really...

    ECON2101 textbooks (Varian 7e)

    Hi everyone, I'm over at Macquarie and into my third year of economics. I understand through a friend that this subject required the "Intermediate Microeconomics" Varian text and workbook.

    Timetable Clash

    Okay, I sat down this afternoon to draw up what my timetable might look like for sem 1. I found that my 3 hour (Mon 2-5pm) GEOS204 "mixed activity" class clashes with the only ECON356 tutorial (Mon 4-5pm). Is it possible that I still enrol in both units? Can I just skip the last hour of the...

    ECON356: History of Economic Thought

    Thanks for the write-up, mate! I've been waiting for a unit like this to come along. Frankly, i've grown tired of the technicalities of first and second year economics. I've always preferred expressing thoughts and ideas in words rather than learning and applying derivations of formulae and...

    binomial q

    If (1+x)^n = sigma(r=0-->n) (nCr)(x^r) then show by integration that sigma (r=0-->n) ((-1)^n)(nCr)/(r+1) = 1/(n+1). Writing it out might be easier to understand. I integrated both sides, the LHS is easy, the RHS i can get, but i cant work out what to do after that. Thanks
