Another Tasmania Jones question to answer :P.

He's been doing a lot of things over the years, from training for the Olympics to retrieving diamonds in insect infested caves. Who knows whats going to be in store tomorrow, does anyone have any ideas? :P

Someone go back in time and reduce the amplitude of the graph in the Tasmania Jones question last year so that he gets eaten by those poisonous man-eating insects...meaning we don't have to do another one tmrw :] No but seriously, he better die this year.

Unfortunatley I don't think he will die...

VCAA love him too much. I have a feeling he'll be doing something less dangerous this year...

Tasmania Jones ruined my Methods score.

Perhaps a question involving students 'ridding' him. What should the diameter of his grave be? Something like that.

I'll pick it up from there rupert.

After a long and hard journey around the world, Tasmania Jones starts to crave for his wife Victoria Jones.

So, Tasmania books a flight back home to see his wife again for sex.

Unfortunately, Tasmania's lack of sex has let him down and he is only able to last for a very limited time. Thus, his wife has threatened to leave him if he doesn't improve.

His duration can be modelled by the following formula: <formula here> where < indenpendant variable here> stands for <measurement here> and <variable here> stands for <measurement 2 here>

Victoria Jones clearly states that he should last at least for 15 mins otherwise he sees the divorce papers on Monday.

Solve for <independant variable here> which tells Tasmania Jones how many hours of practice he needs so that he is able to last for at least 15 mins.

etc.
