a curve has an equation: y = x^2 - 2x - 24x^0.5 x>0 find dy/dx and d^2y/dx^2

dy/dx = 2x -2 - 12x^-0.5d^2/dx^2 = 2 + 6 x^-3/2

Use implicit differentiation to find dy/dx of a curve with equation x^3 + yx^2 = y^2 + 1.


f(x)=x^3 + x^2 -10x +8 show that (x-1) is a factor of f(x), Factorise f(x) fully , sketch the graph of f(x)


Find the exact value of dy/dx at (-2,4) of the curve C: 4x^2 -y^2 + 6xy + 2^y = 0


Find the values of x, where 0 < x < 360, such that x solves the equation: 8(tan[x])^2 – 5(sec[x])^2 = 7 + 4sec[x]
