Hey there!

They earn half a cent per member per day, not half a dollar. This means they are correct in multiplying by $0.005 as opposed to the$0.50 that half a dollar would get you.

Hope this helps

Can someone please explain how did they get the answer as 18 litres? And like how do you know that you have to integrate (t)? Because I tried to sub 4 into both equations of liquid A and B and then subtract to get the answer as 4 litres? Help please!

But then would you do 0.5x1/2? But that would equal 0.25? Sorry I know it sounds stupid but I'm actually confused how to get half a cent?

There are never stupid questions, ever. You can't know what you don't know, so don't be afraid to ask!

Recall that 100 cents make a dollar; this means that 1 cent is $0.01. Then, we halve it to get half a cent ie.$0.005 Does this make more sense?

You have to integrate here to find the volumes; you can't subtract the rates of change then multiply by the time taken. The rate of change given in the question is essentially just telling you how fast the water is coming out; it doesn't tell us anything about how much water is in the actual tank. And the answer is wrong; it's actually supposed to be 8 litres, not 18. There's a load of typos in the various sample answers, so just be wary of that

Yup, got it now. Thanks a lot 🌷

Hi Everyone!

I am currently studying the topic: "Series and Sequences" and have come across both of these questions (questions are attached) and have no idea about how to go about solving them. Could someone please help me with them? --> btw, the question states:

"Find the value of the pronumeral in each arithmetic sequence"

Hey!
Arithmetic series have the following property (due to the common difference):
$T_2 - T_1 = T_3 - T_2$
We can use this to find the pro-numeral:
$(5k + 2) - 3 = 21 - (5k +2) \\ 5k + 2 -3 = 21 -5k -2 \\ 5k -1 = 19 - 5k \\ 10k = 20 \\ k = 2$
I'll let you have a go with the other question
Let me know if you need any more help!

Hi r1ckworthy,

Thankyou for your reply, I do have a couple of questions though. For the first one why didn't you times (5k+2) by -3? and for the second question (h) I wrote this as my working out and got a wrong answer of x = 11:
(h):
$(x+3) - x = (2x +5) - (x+3) \\ 3 = 2x + 5 - x - 3 \\ 6 = x + 5 \\ x = 11$

Could you please suggest what I have done wrong with my working out please?

Hey Coolmate!

As for your first question, I don't really need to multiply by -3, just subtract 3 from (5k + 2) as per the formula. As for your second question, you made an error on the third line of your working out. You should subtract 5 from 6 instead of add , so it will look like this:
$(x+3) - x = (2x +5) - (x+3) \\ 3 = 2x + 5 - x - 3 \\ 6 = x + 5 \\ 6 \color{red}{- 5} = x \\ x = 1$

Hope that helps! Let me know if you need further help

Hey r1ckworthy!

Thankyou so much, this makes a whole lot more sense and I am getting the questions right now! I like how you previously did the formula as:

T2 - T1 = T3 - T2

And for my second question...... that was such a silly mistake😂😂, thanks for clarifying this for me

Thanks again!

Hi there,

I was wondering if I could have help with this question - thank you!

A bag contains 6 white, 7 red and 8 blue balls. Create a probability function table for the number of white balls selected when drawing two balls from the bag:

A) With replacement
B) Without replacement

Can you please be more specific on where it is you're having trouble? Or alternatively provide some insight on what you tried thus far?
