Use the chain rule to differentiate y=(x-3)^(-3)

Hint: the chain rule states that for y=u(x) ^a, the derivative will be dy/dx = dy/du * du/dxSo we just need to find dy/du and du/dx!In this case u(x)=x-3, so du/dx = 1.from y=u^(-3), dy/du = -3u^(-4).This...

Solve the inequality x < 4 - |2x + 1|.

In order to deal with the modulus sign, we must take account of 2 possible cases:

Case 1: |2x + 1| = (2x +1). In this case we can solve algebraicly, preserving the inequality sign, to get...

Find the exact value of the gradient of the curve y = e^(2- x)ln(3x- 2). at the point on the curve where x = 2.

To solve this problem, we must first differentiate:

Identify that we are able to use the product rule as our expression is of the form y = f(x)g(x) where f(x) = e^(2- x) and g(x) = ln(3x-...
