VCE General & Further Maths Question Thread!

Damn, thats really unfortunate  But im sure you can easily score a 100% in your final two! What SACS are they anyway?

I only have Graphs and Relations and Trig & Geo left

Graphs and Relations and Networks..

Is your textbook Maths Quest 12 Further Mathematics?

Is your textbook Maths Quest 12 Further Mathematics?

Yup, How about you?

Same.. how good is 11D haha.. its a nice break from number punching on cas and further logic questions

Hey, have you finished the coursework for networks yet? I've got a few questions to ask if you have.

I quite enjoy the Graphs and relations module I find it easy and fun. Not much content to learn either. Its cool.

I am currently as we speak starting a quota of questions from 15D.. any questions from 14A-15C i can help.

He might not be using maths quest , but you should be able to help him nevertheless

You know what u made me think off... 'you should be able to help him'.. if only in further people get extra marks in the exam for doing other modules.. if they have extra time .. would be fun

Haha that would be cool, if u lost marks in some modules you can compensate with those extra modules

It would be a funny troll if you had extra time and you did those modules even though they arent going to be marked lol

So, I see you are aiming for a high study score for further maths similar to what I want to achieve. Therefore, I'm assuming you know that every question is extremely important in the exam because losing ~6 marks can drop down your ss below 45. Hence, where i'm trying to go with this is whether or not it is 'dangerous' to do networks for the exam because of its ambiguity and the fact that it is based more on logical reasoning than maths; you generally do not know if your answer is absolutely correct. Therefore, are you planning to do another model for the exam to replace networks? That is what i'm most likely planning to do after I finished my networks sac. I want to see what you have to say, or anybody else, regarding this.

No i am gonna do networks for the exam. Mainly due to the fact i have a sac on networks. I personally don't want to study for something that wont be on the exam. Year 12 is a game.. u gotta find a way to get good marks in all subjects with your study time.. of course u have to compromise time (4 hours for one subjects.. 2 hours for another) by doing a different module on the exam.. u waste the time u spent practicing to get 100% on the networks sac.. and u have to teach yourself/ask questions/resources/teacher to ace this new module. You have to spend more time.. which means less time for other subjects.. or relaxing.. (which is important )..

For me personally i cant afford to learn new content.. i am aiming for a 48+ for Revolutions.. and in that case i spend 4 hours a day alone on that subject.. Thats my case.. you might be different. It really depends on your circumstances

Are step graphs simply just a hybrid function which is defined by constant functions?? Thankyou!

[dankfrank420]

In response to the above questions, I've got a graphs and relations SAC next week and a Networks SAC towards the end of term.

Graphs and relations is extremely easy if you do methods, but sometimes the linear programming can get a bit tricky. I hate those goddamn discrete solutions when you have a continuous point, its a pain to work out.

Yes.

Hey Frank, did you do geometry and trigonometry module? How did you find the SAC?

Nope, did matrices sorry.
