but i have difficulties with Maths terms. although I'm clever at solving Maths problem but when reading some questions. I don't know what they mean. can you tell me that in 11th grade in bristain, the students learn what in Maths? and would you please give me some terms that i can meet almost in maths test!

i had a mistake, please replace the image by "="

the first question: t2=2*1, t3=3*2*1=6,t4=4*3*2*1=24, t5=5*4*3*2*1=120, t6=6*5*4*3*2*1=720.
b. you can prove it by inductive method! when k=1, tk=1( it's correct)
suppose that clause is right when k=a or ta=a!(a>1),we have to prove that is also right when K=a+1 or ta+1=(a+1)!
            because ta=a! ,so that ta=a(a-1)(a-2)(a-3)......3.2.1 (1)
            but  ta+1= (a+1).ta=(a+1)a(a-1)(a-2)......3.2.1=(a+1)! the clause is proved) . we conclude: tk=k! with k is belong to N* .

we can't arrive at the same conclusion if we don't know how high the well is. because, when u know exactly the height of the well you can know the current time that the frog get out the well! try to think about the fact, Dross. We can't always solve the problem in a general way.

could you please give a link to Mathematic dictionary on our side! i think it is very necessary for many members who are not familiar with complicated English terms in Mathswave

oh! i don't think so! the answer is  4 cats (for the first question)! each of 4 cats can see the others(consist of 3 cats) in the room! and each cat is sitting on it's tail! therefore, there're 4 cats in that room!
and the second question! i just give you the correct answer without the explaination! ^.^ : 7 nights and 8 days

hi everybody! I come from Viet Nam, this is the first time I've joined in a forum on internet. I'd like to talk about something related to Maths, perhaps I'm not very good at this subject but I think if I "talk with it", it will "reply to me" tongue. when joining in forum, what I need is being able to make friend with everybody who has the same habits with me. let me see, uhm.. I'm interested in watching TV, reading Scientific books, listening to music and chatting with my friends. If you want to learn more about my character or discuss about Maths problem, please contact to me.I'm very nice to help you!;)
