harder mathematical questions ( pure mathematics)?
Please help me by answering any questions you can from the following.....the more the better.
1) reffered to a fixed point origin O, the positional vector of points P and Q are (-2i+3j) and ( ki + lj ) respectively, where k and l are constants. The point M is the midpoint of PQ. given the position vector of M relative to O is (2i+4j)
a) find the values of k and l
the point R is such that PQ : QR = 1:2
b)find, in terms of i and j, the expression for OR
2) solve the equation sin2x = sin 120, giving all solutions for 0<x<360
3) A can is made out of thin sheet metal and is in shape of a right circular cylinder closed at both ends. the radius of the circular cross section of the can is r cm. the height of the can is h cm and the total surface area is A cm^2 . given that the capacity of the can is 31.25*pie cm^3.
a) show that r^2 *h = 31.25
b)find an expression of A in terms of pie and r only
c) calculate , to one decimal place , the value of dA/dr when r=3
d) show that A has a stationary value when r=2.5
e) find, giving your answer as a multiple of pie , the stationary value of A establishing whether this is a maximum or minimum value.
4) find the set of values for x which 2x(x-2)<(x+1)(x-2)
5) Sn= nSIGMA NOTATION (SUMMATION ) SYMBOL r=1 ( 50-4r)
a) write down the first three terms of the series
b)Calculate the value of S20
c) find n such that Sn=0
ii) the sum of the first four terms of a geometric series of positive terms is 78.336 and the sum to infinity of the series is 90. calculate
a) the common ratio of the series
b) the first term of the series
c) the difference, to 3 significant figures, between the sum to infinity of the series and the sum of the first thirty terms. Give your answer in standard form
Thanks in advance :-)

4) 2x(x - 2) < (x + 1)(x - 2)
2x(x - 2) - (x + 1)(x - 2) < 0
(2x - (x + 1))(x - 2) < 0
(x + 1)(x - 2) < 0
{x + 1 < 0 and x - 2 > 0} or {x + 1 > 0 and x - 2 < 0}
{x < -1 and x > 2} or {x > -1 and x < 2}
Discard {x < -1 and x > 2} because it has no solutions, leaving just
x > -1 and x < 2
-1 < x < 2
One question at a time.

I hate to tell you this, yet there is not any longer plenty. in the journey that your GPA is 3.5 or above, the federal government might have a job for you. If no longer, you could desire to bypass to grad college ASAP, learn extra math, or bypass into something else. I actual have a level in organic math, my GPA became 3.4. It took my 9 months to discover a section time activity as a clerk in a shuttle company - no, i'm no longer kidding. besides the reality that i did no longer ever intend to instruct, it truly is exactly the place i ended up because of the fact i could no longer discover the different form of activity with my degree at that ingredient. issues could be distinctive now, yet i can't truly say. I only understand that I actual have by no ability made a residing salary because of the fact I have been given my BS and am now in grad college engaged on a masters in academic technologies. in case you desire to pursue a masters or doctoroate in math, do it now on an identical time as you will undergo in ideas the difficult instructions you took. OR, in case you desire to bypass into coaching, you will possibly could take the Praxis, and for which you will might desire to understand Geometry and math history. despite the fact that in case you have no preparation instructions, you could bypass the mathematics subject section examination provided you do understand Geometry, and a sprint history. without the Geometry, you will no longer bypass the element - voice of journey right here, only attempting to instruct you the thank you to out. in case you have student loans, bypass to grad college and detect a thank you to get a masters in something which will earn you a residing salary. in any different case, you will war with it except you're very, VERY fortunate. Sorry to burst your bubble, yet I actual have been there and am nonetheless no longer making a residing salary, yet attempting to get there by using way of the Masters degree. ultimate needs, good success, inspect positions with the Feds in case you have a three.5. Or, develop into an actuary, in case you like information. The pay is large so I hear.
