Solve e^(2x) = 5e^(x) - 6, giving your answers in exact form

Solve e2x = 5ex - 6e2x - 5ex + 6 = 0(ex)2 - 5ex + 6 = 0 (Let k = ex)k2 - 5k + 6 = 0(k-3)(k-2) = 0k = 3 k = 2ex = 3 ex = 2x = ln(3) x = ln(3)

The rate of growth of a population of micro-organisms is modelled by the equation: dP/dt = 3t^2+6t, where P is the population size at time t hours. Given that P=100 at t=1, find P in terms of t.


Integrate y=(x^2)cos(x) with respect to x.


Sine Rule


The curve C has equation y = (x^2 -4x - 2)^2. Point P lies on C and has coordinates (3,N). Find: a) the value of N. b) the equation of the tangent to C at the point P, in the form y=mx+c where m and c are constants to be found. c) determine d^2y/dx^2.
