Given y =( 2x+1 )^0.5 and limits x = 0 , x = 1.5 , find the exact volume of the solid generated when a full rotation about the x-axis .

Using V = pi* integral of y2 between b and a with respect to x , where V is the volume of generated solid.y2 = 2x + 1 Integrating between given limits yields a result of 3.75Multiplying through by pi leaves the final result as 3.75 pi as an exact solution .

What are radians, why can't we just use degrees?


f(x) = 2x3 – 5x2 + ax + 18 where a is a constant. Given that (x – 3) is a factor of f(x), (a) show that a = – 9 (2) (b) factorise f(x) completely. (4) Given that g(y) = 2(33y ) – 5(32y ) – 9(3y ) + 18 (c) find the values of y that satisfy g(y) = 0, givi


Work out the equation of the tangent at x = 3, knowing that f(x) =x^2
