Work out the coordinates for the stationary point of y = x^2 + 3x + 4

dy/dx = 2x + 3dy/dx = 0 at stationary pointTherefore 2x + 3 = 0so x = -3/2so y = (-3/2)^2 +3 (-3/2) + 4so y = 9/4 - 9/2 + 4therefore y = 7/4so the coordinates of the stationary point are (-3/2 , 7/4)

How many different ways are there to seat 6 people at a round table?


This is a question from a past paper: https://prnt.sc/r6jnxc


Show that 2cos^2(x) = 2 - 2sin^2(x) and hence solve 2cos^2(x) + 3sin(x) = 3 for 0<x<180
