We didn't do too badly at math did we beefy?

Whats the quadratic forumula?

I aced my Calculus and other inferior math classes back in high school with ease, mah man. Ya need some help? Come buy some meth! I'm everything you'll ever need, the answers to your life's questions...

2 a

5 what graph ?

I love Algerbra but have to goto work...

sorry, lots of them are images (like the fractions) so they wont come over with a copy+paste. didnt see that one!

Print-screen and upload?

Long time since I've done any maths other than Financial maths. Not that I'm unhappy about that though.

**Prussian to the Iron** · 09-15-2009, 14:35

ah yes, but my keyboard has no print screen. laptop you see.

**pevergreen** · 09-16-2009, 00:47

15 is A)

y = mx + c is the standard format for the thingy. M is the gradient and C is y-intercept.

Rest are in terms we don't use in Queensland, or need images etc

I'm pretty sure most (if not all) laptop keyboards have a print screen function. It may just be in blue, under a function key.

Until grade 10. Grade 11 is when I got lost and never bothered to pick up...
So its been about 3 years since I last properly picked up a math book.

Quadratic formula is that thing! Formula which is quadratic!

Got number 2 right lol

Rest, I will do when Carp wins
