How would you use the following expression to approximate [(4-5x)/(1+2x)(2-x)] when x=5 (A2 pure)

So I cant really answer this question over text however, the method would be using partial fractions to split the two fractions into two, then using a binomial expansion, but the indicies will be negative so you'd have to be careful how you expand. Then once you have expanded the fractions you would simply plug 5 into the polynomial formed and that would be the answer. This question would be specifically for A2

Find the equation of the tangent line to the parabola y=x^2+3x+2 at point P(1, 6).


a typical question would be a setof parametric equations y(t) and x(t), asking you to find dy/dx and then the tangent/normal to the curve at a certain point (ie t = 2)


Let y=arcsin(x-1), 0<=x<=2 (where <= means less than or equal to). Find x in terms of y, and show that dx/dy=cos(y).


Solve the equation 8x^6 + 7x^3 -1 = 0
