If y=(x^2)*(x-10), work out dy/dx

The question is pretty straightforward and asks you to find the derivative of y, which is a function of x. The most simple way to do this is to first eliminate the brackets and then derive. Thus we get y=x^3-10x^2, so dy/dx= 3x^2-20x.

Let y = (4x^2 + 3)^4. Find dy/dx.


(x+4)((x^2) - kx - 5) is expanded and simplified. The coefficient of the x^2 term twice the coefficient of the x term. Work out the value of k.


Solving equations with unknown in both sides
