differentiate parametrically y=3t+4 and x=2t^2 +3t-5

first you differentiate both equations giving dy/dt = 3 and dx/dt = 4t+3
dividing dy/dt by dx/dt gives dy/dx and so the answer is 3/(4t+3)

Find the stationary points of the curve given by the following function: f(x) = x^2 + 5x + 2


How do you show that (x+2) is a factor of f(x) = x^3 - 19x - 30, and then factorise f(x) completely?


Given that y = 4x^3 – 5/(x^2) , x =/= 0, find in its simplest form dy/dx.


y=4x/(x^2+5)
