From your initial equation
(1)y^2-(4)y+(2k-13) = 0

a=1
b=4
c=2k-13

b^2-4ac=0
16-4(1)(2k-13)=0
16-8k+52=0
8k=68
k=8.5

So I didn't need it in terms of x :p
Now I get it, you switched the equation so the value for C wouldn't have a 'y' in it.
Thanks for the , how many times has it been now? 3rd? Haha (y)

32 + 80u + 80u^2

u = x+x^2 ..

32+ 80(x+x^2) + 80(x+x^2)^2
32+80x+80x^2 + 80(x^2+2x^3+x^4)
32+80x+80x^2+80x^2+160x^3+80x^4
160x^2
160 coeffiecent.

Welcome to the club :D

Mine is around 60 as well, but the recent papers ... well.

If a paper like this 2012 comes.. then securing an A would be very very difficult. I also have S1 this year.. If i had M1 it would have been easier for me :\
