1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,519 Speaker 1: Jum mission with join Z and Amanda. If you're a 2 00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 1: results driven person like I am, and I acknowledge that 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: about myself. I didn't used to know that about myself, 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: but I am. I'm task driven and results driven. Hearing 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: that the HSC is on every year still gives me 6 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: a shiver. It still triggers me somehow, particularly vested interest. 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,440 Speaker 1: This year. My son's doing the HSC. It's the maths 8 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: paper today. I still have dreams. Two recurring dream Yeah, 9 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: recurring dreams. One is that I'm in a play at 10 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,400 Speaker 1: college and I've no one's given me the script or 11 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: I've forgotten to learn it and I'm on stage and 12 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: I can't remember how it goes. The other is that 13 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: I sit down to do the maths exam. I still 14 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: dream about it. Are you in your underpants now? In? No, 15 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: I'm fully clothed in the dream, so it's not the 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: I forgot to get dressed dream? Today? Is math friendship 17 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: dream that you have with Jock from Master Chef? No, 18 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: that's for another time. We were good friends in that dream. Okay, 19 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: I to this. Jack's been studying really hardy. Your son 20 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: is a swat. He's really he's actually doing the work, 21 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: and he's been going to the state library, studying at 22 00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: friends houses. He's like a cat on a hot ten 23 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: roof when he's home. And I know what that's like 24 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: if you if you've got a task, you can't think 25 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: of anything until it's done. So last night he was 26 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: in his room doing some study and he said, Mom, Mom, 27 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: In fact him want any contact during this time. I thought, 28 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 1: he wants me to go and read him a bedtime story, 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: just to talk about our lives. No, there's been a 30 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:45,280 Speaker 1: whole tub of Japanese sauce that was soy sauce mixed 31 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: with chili and a whole lot of stuff. All that 32 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: up ended on his carpet. Oh no, and you've got 33 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,559 Speaker 1: white carpet up there. It's beige. Probably started as white, 34 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: I can't remember. So I got paper towels. This is 35 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: in the midst of him sitting there trying the last 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: minute cramming, and I scooped up the solid bits from it. 37 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 1: It's just this giant black stain and it's the size 38 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 1: of a of a small plate. There's a lot of it, 39 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: and so I googled, what how do you get rid 40 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: of a soy sauce stain? And it said you get 41 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: one part washing liquid YEP, three parts white vinegar. There's 42 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: always vinegar involved, and then water no bi carb no. 43 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: And it just said to dab that either with a 44 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 1: micro fiber thing or a small brush. I don't I 45 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 1: don't understand the dab. They always do the dab. I 46 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: find you got a scrub. They always say dab, dab 47 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: does nothing. Well, I don't know. Well, this is the cup. 48 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: It's going to be ruined either way. But there's Jack 49 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: trying to do his mats. He's sitting at his desk 50 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: and I'm pretty much at his feet, so sorry, And 51 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: even though he had spilt it, I'm going sorry, sorry, 52 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 1: why not don't he normally ignore me with a bucket 53 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: And I'm down on the fenk just trying to get 54 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: the big stain out. So he's had some great prep 55 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 1: for his maths. But I've got a copy in front 56 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: of me of last year's standard maths. So this is 57 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: your basic math. This is the Dumbo mats. And this 58 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,839 Speaker 1: is also the one that freaked everyone out last year? 59 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: Do you remember? This is that a whole lot of 60 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: kids had been taught the wrong stuff, or they weren't 61 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: taught what was in the test because a bit of 62 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: this and another brand of maths had munched together and 63 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: some of the kids were given stuff they hadn't even 64 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: studied for. So the vice president of the Mathematical Association 65 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: of New South Wales had said, I know there is 66 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: the teachers fear a repeat of the crossover questions at 67 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: stumped students last year. So he said, we had some 68 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: very disgruntled teachers, some very upset parents and students. So 69 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: hopefully this year is won't be as bad as that. 70 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: But let's flick through it. You know, we have to 71 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: have a look. I know you didn't even do your 72 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: HSC but just these shapes and numbers are so triggering, 73 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, and I'm not good at maths. Well, Brendan 74 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: tell us something we don't know. Do you remember on 75 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: this show we had a segment where you would take 76 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: on primary school children in a quiz and here's just 77 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: some of your some of your answers. What is ten 78 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:11,119 Speaker 1: percent of six dollars fifty? It would be two cents ten? 79 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: Today is Wednesday? Yes? What day was it? Three days ago? Monday? No? 80 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: Twelve minus four equals six? What is nine times eight 81 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: forty eight? Lucas. What is nine times eight? Correct? That's 82 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: a disgrace. Nowhere near it. No, you made it sound 83 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: like it was happening to someone else. That's a disgrace. 84 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: How would you go with this one? This is a 85 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: last year's match. What is zero point zero zero two 86 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 1: oh seven three expressed in standard form with two significant figures? 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: It's multiple choice? Is it two point seven times ten 88 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: to the power of two, two point one times ten 89 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: to the power of two, seven times ten to the 90 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: power of three, or is that power of minus three? 91 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Is that the same thing? Or two point one times 92 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: ten to the minus exactly some of the look at 93 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: I'll just go a because that's multiple choice. The distance 94 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: between Bricktown and Kohala Creek is seventy five k's. Jones 95 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: is riding his bike from Bricktown to Kohala Creek at 96 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: an average speed of fifty k So it can't be you. 97 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,159 Speaker 1: How long does it take a person to complete the journey? 98 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: One hour thirty see correct? Good distances. Oh come on, now, 99 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: I got it. I got it. How about the next one? 100 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: Now I think you've cheated. Cheated. Joan invests two hundred dollars. 101 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: She earns interest at three percent per annum compounded monthly. 102 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 1: All that being spoken about publicly and monthly. What's the 103 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: future of Joan's investment after one and a half years? Okay, 104 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: it's multiple choice reading them out, I think it's be 105 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: you bleady sheet, you bloody sheet. Maybe I'm just a genius. No, 106 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: I don't believe it. There's a blank page here. You 107 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: couldn't even fill that out. Okay, well but enough anyway, 108 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: good luck everyone, and that's your standard match anything. If 109 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,039 Speaker 1: you fail, you can get a job in breakfast radio. 110 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:23,159 Speaker 1: Excuse me, Jonesy and Amanda's
