If y=2x+4x^3+3x^4 and z=(1+x)^2, find dy/dx and dz/dx.

Differentiation dy/dx = 2+12x^2+12x^3
Chain ruleu = 1+xz=u^2dz/dx = dz/du * du/dx = 2u * 1 = 2(1+x)

How to integrate lnx by parts?


Find the Co-ordinates and nature of all stationary points on the curve y=x^3 - 27x, and attempt to sketch the curve


(x+2)(x-3)


The curve C has equation: (x-y)^2 = 6x +5y -4. Use Implicit differentiation to find dy/dx in terms of x and y. The point B with coordinates (4, 2) lies on C. The normal to C at B meets the x-axis at point A. Find the x-coordinate of A.
