1.differentiate the equation using the rule: y=xⁿ , dy/dx= nx^n-12.set dy/dx to =0 as this is where a minimum point occurs (where the gradient of the graph is = 0)3.solve for x4.then,...

Completing the square of a function is sometimes used to find the stationary points on a curve, and also to solve when equaling zero. To complete the square firstly we have to halve the middle value of th...

If you are comfortable with differentiation. You can take the second derviatve of the equation of the cruve and plug in the x value of the curve. Based on this answer you can determine if it's a maximum, ...

Given a ODE of the 2nd order, Ay''+by'+cy = 0, we assume the general solution of the exponential form y=e^(mx).As we will see this leads to an easy simplification due to the properties of the exponential ...
