(Core 3 level) Integrate the function f(x) = 2 -cos(3x) between the bounds 0, pi/3.

f(x) = 2 - cos(3x)integrate function x term2 -> 2x (raise power of x then divide by new power for polynomial functions of x) -cos(3x) -> -(1/3)(sin(3x)) (using a substitution of 3x = u, then cos(u) integrates to sin(u)) Answer:2x - (1/3)(sin(3x)) + csubstituting bounds,(2*(pi/2) - (1/3(sin(3pi/3))) - (20 - (1/3)(sin(30/3)) = 2pi/3 - 0 = 2pi/3.

Find the stationary point(s) of the curve: y = 3x^4 - 8x^3 - 3.


Solve 4cos(2x )+ 2sin(2x) = 1 given -90° < x < 90°. Write 4cos(2x )+ 2sin(2x) in the form Rcos(2x - a), where R and a are constants.


At time t = 0 a particle leaves the origin and moves along the x-axis. At time t seconds, the velocity of P is v m/s in the positive x direction, where v=4t^2–13t+2. How far does it travel between the times t1 and t2 at which it is at rest?
