Integrate $$\int xe^x \mathop{\mathrm{d}x}$$.

We use integration by parts. Set $u = x$ and $dv/dx = e^x$. This leads to $du/dx = 1$, and $v = e^x$. Then:\begin{align*}\int xe^x \mathop{\mathrm{d}x} &= xe^x - \int e^x \mathop{\mathrm{d}x}\&= xe^x - e^x.\end{align*}

Prove the Quotient Rule using the Product Rule and Chain Rule


The curve C is paramterised by the equations: x = 5t + 3 ; y = 2 / t ; t > 0 Find y in terms of x and hence find dy/dx


solve dy/dx = y(sec x)^2


By using the substitution, x = 2sin(y) find the exact value of integral sqrt(1/3(4-x^2)) dx with limits 0 and 1.
