Omelets, English Project and Time.
Oh, about the omelets. You see, for our Moral Studies project (Of which i dislike the teacher) we have to raise up RM1000 to give it away for charity. So I came out with this idea of selling omelets and everyone has agreed. :D
For my english project, Di-Anne has choosen under the main heading of globalization, "Cultural Identity: To Retain or Reform?" Im choosing that we should reform. I do have the points. However, I can't really source out from books or papers cause there almost isn't any. Handout date is this Friday though so we should see.
Enjoy your day!

More Maths.
The first thing I would like to rant about is this question.
Actually, I tried to do this question again later that day. I mean, this question had negative exponential, not to mention an irreducible denominator. Of course, as leaving the question blank during the exam, I HAD to try this at home in my own sweet time.
I proceeded to write down the question first.
Then stare at it blankly for a few moments.
After which, I lifted the marker and tried to see how far it leads too. After 10 minutes of agonizing, I got this.
What an idea! Bring the negative number down of course, for 1/e is actually e^-1. So it will end up like the above. So... Then what?
Ok...maybe this is not the way. A dead end has been approached. Erased it.
No wait!
How about:
Ok fine that is SO wrong. You cannot cancel exponentials like that. I know you had to do some substituting, but it looks from here it can't! The "u" is supposed to cancel out the "x", which doesn't here.
After 40 minutes, I quit. To solve for another day.
_____________________________________________________________________________________
"This is retarded" I thought to myself when Ms. Lee (Adv. Maths lec.) gave the answer.
The secret was to change 1+e^(-x)=u by bring over the 1 so that you get u-1=e^(-x)
WHAT THE HELL.
Then of course, you proceed to substitute accordingly. Working is below.
Another question for you to try.
Not many got this correct.
Try and list your working :)
This question is easy (Well, after the exam it was). Just use long division.
This one is a mad one. "Manipulate the question to your liking" Its like how in the world am I supposed to think so far ahead with this question? I dont think 4-x looks like 2x+10 seriously. I would need to multiply by 2 and +18 to the equation. what is this. MANIPULATION.
And finally this one. I was surprised when I got it right lol. Cause this does look more complicated then most of the above questions.

A mathematical rant.
Main point here today is that, I think I have failed my first advance maths test for this semester.
Here's a challenge for you. Integrate this:
4e^(-2x)/(1+e^x)
If you do not understand, click on the link BUT DONT SCROLL DOWN.

If you get this by yourself.
You
Are
Awesome.
