The chain rule is used to differentiate when there is a function within another function. For example y=(4x+6)^0.5, y=(x+1)³The general formula for the chain rule is dy/dx= dy/d...

First the student needs to differentiate the function to find dy/dx = 2x-6At dy/dx = 0, we know the curve is stationary. Now we can work out the x value such that x = 3Put x=3 back into the original equat...

Formulae to be used: n^th term of an arithmetic sequence u_n= u₁ + (n-1)d and sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic series S_n = (n/2) * (2u₁ + (n-1...

Medicine and dentistry are very competitive courses with limited spaces, so the application process can be very long and frustratingly hard but I will take the student through every process that I did usi...

cos(2y)= (cos(y))^2 - (sin(y))^2 identitynow consider identity (cos(y))^2+(sin(y))^2=1by rearranging this to (cos(y))^2 - 1 = - (sin(y))^2 we can now substitute it into our first identity to obtaincos(2y)...
