Given that y=((4x+1)^3)sin2x. Find dy/dx.

To answer this we will need to use the product rule which is as follows: For y=uv, dy/dx=u'v+uv' where u' is the derivative of u and v' is the derivative of v.

In this case, u= (4x+1)^3 and v= sin2x. u'= 34(4x+1)^2 = 12*(4x+1)^2 and v'= 2cos2x. Therefore dy/dx= u'v+uv'= (12*(4x+1)^2)sin2x + 2((4x+1)^3)*cos2x.

Consider the function f(x) = 2/3 x^3 + bx^2 + 2x + 3, where b is some undetermined coefficient:


How do you differentiate a function comprised of two functions multiplied together?


1. (a) Find the sum of all the integers between 1 and 1000 which are divisible by 7. (b) Hence, or otherwise, evaluate the sum of (7r+2) from r=1 to r=142


A function f is defined by f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 + 1. i) Write down f'(x). ii) Hence find the co-ordinates of the stationary points of the curve y=f(x).
