Here's the question:

nr323nr2nr^3 \cdot \dfrac{2}{3}nr^2

"n" is supposed to be Pi :smile:

What is the actual question though?

Gotta love my chemistry teacher -

"There are three types of questions:

Easy,
Gotta think,
and 'Oh ****'."

Thank you, wise mathematician.

Edit: Actually I get why you did 30/2 but not the rest, I think I should focus on other stuff instead. No point in getting caught up on a 1 mark question (or so I hope).


Ah.. well you want to find out which band 15 is found in..

So..

For 0 ..you get 11

For 1: you get 11+8 = 19. 15 Lies between 11 and 19. So the answer is 1.

I'm not the best at explaining things, but does that make sense?

Why, thank you. I don't get that latex thing :L

Usycool said the dot stands for multiply.

I also need to know the answer of the two expressions added.

Yes I know this :smile: but what are you supposed to be trying to do? There is no actual question stated

No problem :smile:

Is the question literally just asking you to multiply and add them together?

Don't worry, you probably are good enough! :smile:

Yes, literally that.

I can't believe I'm getting worked up over a maths question :L

Go for it!

Usycool put it into the fancy maths format but I haven't a clue how to do that o.O

πr^2 * 2/3πr^3

π= pie btw

Also if you could work that out...how would you add those two values?


Sophie is the way Usycool has put it how u meant it to be?

Btw what do you want me to do? Do you want me to simplify the expression. For which the answer would be:

23π2r5\dfrac{2}{3}\pi^{2}r^{5}

Or do you want me to factorise it for which the answer would be:

π\pi r2r^{2} (r×23)(r \times \dfrac{2}{3})

Sorry for the wait. My Latex skills aren't great!

The question is to 1. multiply them 2. add them.

There was a question on the paper..but I've simplified it to just this.

You can't add them. The expression is in its most simplified form for addtion.

Hmm.. my maths teacher said that isn't the answer.
That's what I thought and Usycool thought you had to do but apparently not >.<

Just simplify :smile:

But thanks anyway! At least I did what most people would do :smile:

Also how would you add those two expressions?

I also thought this :s-smilie: completely stumped me that one.

I could kill my effing neighbours. We don't get on with them and I got woken up at 6am from them hoovering up and banging with a hammer. It's been going on for 7 hours so far, sick of it. Can't revise at all. My mums been round saying she's reporting my neighbour to council again

I'm getting confused.

Is this wuestion from a past paper or something. Do you know what the answer is . If you do post it on here. If not ask your teacher on Tuesday and we can figure it out then.

Thats good if they wake you up, get you revising!

You're predicted all A*-A though aren't you? My friend got accepted this year and he had some B's and C's I think

Not when their hoover sounds like a broken lawnmower. Can't revise properly because it's winding me up. I've been throwing hard things at my wall all day. Had enough of them now. Who the hell hoovers for 7 hours? Someone with OCD, someone who likes winding up their neighbours or someone who likes the sound of their **** hoover :confused:
