How do I solve this inequality: x^2>2x ?

Solve the equation x2=2x (solve x2-2x=0 by factorisation). Sketch the graphs y=x2 and y=2x, using standard graph shapes. Look at the sketch to see for which values of x the graph y=x2 lies above y=2x; this is your solution.

A curve has equation y = x^3 - 6x^2 - 15x. The curve has a stationary point M where x = -1. Find the x-coordinate of the other stationary point on the curve.


Solve the following equation by completing the square: x^2 + 6x + 3 = 0.


Find the equation to the tangent to the curve x=cos(2y+pi) at (0, pi/4)
