What do you want to with this equation, hadsi? Can you please quote the whole question. Do we have to fine the differential or what? :S

Re: O'level Maths, Addmaths and Statistics help available he

i have a question:
in probability we have a trick that when it comes "OR", add them and when it comes "AND" multiply them...but question is this what is the reason for above??
I mean a question said describe the reason adding the above two probabilites (which contained "OR" in it!)
So what is the reason??

The following link will help you in understanding probability better: http://people.richland.edu/james/lectur ... 5-rul.html

OR and AND in probability are related to Mutually exclusive and independent events. Mutually exclusive events are events that cannot occur at the same time, i.e. there is no intersection if you draw a set diagram. Examples: Dice or a coin.
Whereas, independent events do not depend on each other and can occur at the same time. The AND basically refers to the intersection between the two events.
You should draw a set diagram and analyse it while looking at the link given above.

x^2 -4y^2=37
this question is from the factorisation chapter in classified mathematics.we have to find the values of x and y.i know the answer but dont know the method.

Past papers are enough for your preparation. Make sure you can solve each and every question form 2002 till 2010. If you have any problem, feel free to ask us on this forum, we'll try to help you.
You shouldn't rely on a guess paper. It doesn't really matter if your preparation is good enough.

AoA, hadsi! :)
Actually, it's not that hard. Look at the question as a whole.
(a) The prime factors between 30 and 40 are 31 and 37 (this shows you 37 is a prime number for the later part).
(b) The result of the factorisation here is (x + 2y) (x - 2y).
(c) Now this part is what I'd like to call the KEY to the next part. The question itself tells you (if you infer it correctly) that the positive integers that would multiply to give a prime number are 1 and the prime number itself (in this case 37). As for this part, the smallest integer would be 1.
(d) x^2 - 4y^2 = 37
=> (x + 2y) (x - 2y) = 37
Since 37 is a prime number, the larger multiple (x + 2y) is 37 while the smaller multiple (x - 2y) is 1. Bingo!
Solve the simultaneous equations: x + 2y = 37 and x - 2y = 1. I'm sure you can easily do that. You'll get x = 19 and y = 9.
Hope you understand. :)

Yes, it is. I can provide you with links of lectures for effective revision of relative velocity that helped me a lot. Shall I?

Haha. I used to hate it, too. In fact my teacher refused to teach me this chapter but after these lectures, It didn't seem that hard at all. You'll enjoy it. Good luck! and yes,you're welcome! :)
