Please help me out wiv a few of these MCQ questions.. its on attachment.. thnks heaps..
-
The document comes out all jumbled up when I try to open it :(
Maybe cause I'm using a mac...
-
I uploaded it again.. and this time for word or pdf.. which ever opens up for u
-
1.

)
, z=\sqrt[3]{4} cis\left ( -\frac{5\pi}{6} \right ), z=\sqrt[3]{4} cis\left ( \frac{\pi}{2} \right ) )
so 3 complex roots, so c. probably didnt need to find the roots, just simplify to get z^3=-4i and you should know that this gives 3 complex roots.
2. by inspection:
^{\pm k}=i^{\frac{n}{3}} \cdot 1^{\pm k}=i^{\frac{n}{3}})
so A
3.
this is just a straight line equation:
so has no stationary points or asymptotes, hence C.
4.
put into calc and see imaginary component of the reciprocal is 1/3, so must be A
5.
, so cant be A, we know its not 0 as then it would be the origin, so must be B.
6.
This is perpendicular bisector of origin and 
which is equivelant to B
hope this is all right :S

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH..... :) :) :) :)
-
for these questions wat we r asked to do is answer which one is right and explain why the others r wrong.. so if u have time or if u can please let me know them for any of the questions.. i am not pushin u .. just incase if u know them and mayb u cud share ur answer.. thnx

Hey moekamo :
i just noticed some problems..
you wrote their z^3 + 2^2i^2 + 2z^2 + 4i.. How did u get 2^2i^2 + 2z^2 .. because the question said 2iz^2 + 2z
and also in Q3. its not a straight line its x+ (b/x).. so its a straight line added to a hyperbola....
sorry for the trouble
-
oops, for the polynomial one, its meant to be
so the z bit that i made a mistake on cancels anyway... to give the same result.
also in q 3, in the pdf its x + x/b, is that a mistake??? if it is then you can exclude C as x cant equal 0, B is correct as there is asymptote at x=0 and at y=x
-
its meant to be 2iz^2 + 2z
-
ok, so
+2(z+2i)=(z+2i)(z^2+2)=(z+2i)(z+i\sqrt 2 )(z-i\sqrt 2 ))
so 3 complex roots, so answer is C
-
Thnks heaps.. sorri for da trouble once again

4 MCQ QUESTIONS.. please refer to attachment
-
Please some one help me.. these are new questions :( :(
-
Well the first one is:
Dilate
by a factor of
parallel to the y-axis
So replace
with 
^2 = 9)
(B)
-
i got option C for that its 1/3 dilation from x axis :
x^2 + (y/3)^2=9 expand the y bit and divide all by 9
-
i got option C for that its 1/3 dilation from x axis :
x^2 + (y/3)^2=9 expand the y bit and divide all by 9
Well about that, when you dilate by a factor of n from the x-axis, you replace y with y/n (in this case,
), which results in )
So it should be B
-
for q2) restrict it between [-1,1] as the domain of
is [-1,1] so it looks a lil something like this
. u should be able to do the rest.
i presume u dont need help with the last question.

So it should be B
doesnt it go (x,y) --> (x,ny) for a dilation of factor n from x axis. so the n is put in front of the y?

and... how do u continue ?? (tbh im having trouble with doing that as well, trying to make x the subject) i tried doing it as 2 seperate inequalities, but what i got isnt one of the answers...

Ah but y' = ny, y = y'/n (replace y with y'/n) :)

ooo yeah ur right.. i never really use those y' in transformations, but i guess theyre helpful sometimes

Like now, or with any other implicit equation.
