How would you integrate ln x

You would use the product rule. uv'=uv- u'vdx. In this case we would allocate u= ln x and v'=1 so u'=1/x and v=x so uv=xlnx whilst u'v=x/x=1 so we would have xln(x) -1dx. Next we would get xln(x)-x +c

Find the coordinates of the points where the lines y=x^2-5x+6 and y=x-4 intersect.


With log base 4, solve log(2x+3) + log(2x+15) = 1 + log(14x+5)


Solve x^2=4(x-3)^2


f(x) = (x-5)/(x^2+5x+4), express this in partial fractions and hence find the integral of f(x) dx between x=0 and x=2, giving the answer as a single simplified logarithm.
