The function f is given by f(x) = SQRT(2x − 5). Work out x when f(x) = 1.2

1.2 = SQRT(2x-5)square both sides1.2^2 = 2x -5 add 5 to both sides 1.2^2 + 5 = 2xdivide both sides by 2(1.2^2 + 5)/2 = x

find the stationary point of the curve for the equation y=x^2 + 3x + 4


How would you differentiate x^x?


y = (x+4)(6x-7). By differentiating, find the x coordinate of the maximum of this equation.


Show that 2cos^2(x) = 2 - 2sin^2(x) and hence solve 2cos^2(x) + 3sin(x) = 3 for 0<x<180
