Differentiate the function y = cos(sin(2x))?


give the coordinates of the stationary points of the curve y = x^4 - 4x^3 + 27 and state with reason if they are minumum, maximum, or points of inflection.


A curve is defined by the parametric equations x = 3^(-t) + 1, y = 2 x 2^(t). Show that dy\dx = -2 x 3^(2t).


I don't understand integration by parts - can you explain it please?
