  • Help With Outdoor Excercise Classes?

    Hey guys. Basically I am running a sort of fitness session for a group of people each week and I need some ideas. The level of fitness within the group varies quite substantially, so I can't make the sessions too hard. The other issue is that I don't want it to seem like hard work, like I don't just want to turn up and get people running up and down the park or doing loads of sit-ups and stuff.

    So I wondered if anyone out there had some good outdoor activities I could do, that will get the blood pumping, but not be too hard so that the less fit people feel alienated and stop coming.

    I need stuff that doesn't really need equipment either, I could get some cones and them little ladder things, but nothing much more than that really.

    So in summary, anyone know any fun outdoor exercises that can be enjoyed by everyone?

    Thanks!!!

  • Probability Question?

    Real quick one hopefully.

    With 50 numbers what is the probability of matching 3 numbers out of 6 being drawn?

    So basically it's a lottery, so once one number has been drawn that number no longer comes up. I think I have worked out that matching all 6 numbers is 1/15.8million or so but matching 3 numbers surely isn't just a case of dividing that by 2?

    Sorry if it's a crap explanation, hopefully you get what I mean.

  • University Not Meeting Grade Requirements?

    I'm just curious if anyone has past experience on this. I'm looking to go to Nottingham Trent University, i need 240 UCAS points to get in. I was just wondering, what do you think the odds of getting in still are if I only get 220?

  • Help on a C3 Maths Question?

    Don't really undertsand this question. Was wondering if there is anybody out there who can give me a run through of the answer and how you got there? Thanks!

    The point P lies on the curve with equation y = 4e^2x+1.

    The y-coordinate of P is 8.

    (a) Find, in terms of ln 2, the x-coordinate of P.

    (2)

    (b) Find the equation of the tangent to the curve at the point P in the form y = ax + b,

    where a and b are exact constants to be found.

    (4)

    I'm not sure on how to do it and the mark scheme doesn't help. It's the C3 June 2008 Paper.

    Thanks!

  • C4 Maths Question....?

    Ok, got another attempt at a question and need to know if i've failed, got it right, got the rigt working etc.

    So here it is.

    Show that the equation of the tangent to y = e^-3x at the point (0,1) is y = 1 - 3x

    part B is

    Find the area bounded by y = e^-3x, the axes and x= -1

    Man C4 is hard :/

  • 'Simple' C4 Maths Question?

    I really don't know how to do this...Teacher wants me to teach myself, with no resources! Yes i'm taking it up with the head.

    Anyways

    It's integration i believe.

    Find the area enclosed by the curve y = e^-2x, the axes and x = 2.

    That's the question exactly as presented in my book. Can you show the working too? I have 1/2 - 1/2e^4

    Not sure if it's right as i don't have answers but i've no clue how i got it really :/

    Stay sharp. I'll probably have more questions soon lol!

  • I lag when i shouldn't Ps3 online?

    I own a PS3 and Resistance Fall Of MAn my speed is adequate for no lag at 2000kbps download and 210kbps upload. I am wireless and loaded up speedtest using my Ps3 and speed came out at 1900kbps download 198 upload with 38 Ping. I simply shouldn't be lagging but sometimes it's terrible. (Like im dead before i can even start shooting :( )

    My Ps3 seems to take forever loading internet pages like youtube too. Is there some reason why i lag so bad? Like i mentioned using my PS3 (which is conneted wirelessly) i still have more than adequate download and upload speeds to play lag free and yet it manages it. When i am downloading files from my PS3 it downloads at around 130 KB a second yet a page like youtuibe (as i said) takes forever

    WHY??!?!?

    Any help will be appreciated :)
