    Don't do geography, but is it migration within a given country?

    Um, migrating within a country (e.g. from Dublin to Cork)?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,175 ✭✭✭angeldelight


    i thought u didnt need to know the proofs for formulae

    You need to know some of the proofs for Higher Level. There's not very many though, they took the majority of them off when they changed the syllabus.

    Physics.

    If you go to http://www.education.ie you can download the Physics syllabus, on page 56 of which there's a list of all the formula you need to know. The ones you need to be able to derive are marked.

    yeah, next question?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 354 ✭✭RefulgentGnomon


    Maths:

    If the roots of the equation ax^2 + bx + c = 0 have a difference of 1.
    Verify that b^2 - a^2 = 4ac

    ok i need urgent help in this maths question!! Its paper two 2000 question 6a
    A bank givese each of its customers a four digit personal identification number which is formed from the digits 0 - 9 inclusive. Examples 2475,0865 and 3422

    (i) how many different personal identification numbers can the bank use?

    (ii) If the bank decided not to use personal id numbers that begin with 0 how many differnet numbers can it use??

    Ive tried examination.ie they only give markin scheme till 2001!so im really stuck! I have a feeling the back of the exam papers are wrong and if they are right please tell me someone the methodology!!? Here is the anwser I am getting
    (i) 5040
    (ii) 4536

    Please help thanks :D!

    ^
    We haven't covered that topic/chapter in school yet however I think I might be able to help you but remember Im only trying to help :)
    So here goes part i) You have a 4 digit pin in which each digit can range from 0-9(thats 10 digits)

    Just look at this First digit 0-9= 10 possible [part ii) 1-9= 9 possible] Second digit 0-9= 10 possible
    Third digit 0-9= 10 possible
    Fourth digit 0-9= 10 possible
    So its 10x10x10x10(or 10^4)= 10000
    And that is the answer in the back of the exam papers

    For part ii) the first digit has a range of 1-9 so thats 9 digits(see part in bold above)
    So its 9x10x10x10= 9000
    And thats the same as the answer in the back of the exam papers

    I'm sorry if this has made you more :confused: than before and I know that I would never make a teacher but I hope this helps nonetheless. I dont think the above is the correct/best methodology and it probably only makes it harder than it actually is, again I'm only trying to help :D

    i) 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10000

    You can use the numbers more than once, so there's 10 possibilities for each number.

    ii)9 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 9000

    The first number only has 9 possibilites, since you can't use 0. However, for the subsequent digits you can use 0, so there's 10 possibilities

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 202 ✭✭Anto and Moe


    Temperature, pressure, oxygen concentration, pH and External solution concentration! They should release this game for the playstation, it'd be a smash hit!

    Question: What might a mycoligist study?

    Not sure of the exact definition but it's something like electrons fill a sublevel in pairs and have opposite spin...
