A ball is kicked from a tower (50m) at a speed of 20m/s. How far away does the ball hit the ground?

time is equal to time in free fall i.e. 50m=0.5gt^2 -> t=root(50m*2/g)=1.019s

horizontal distance is then tv= 1.019s20m/s=20.38m

Simplify (5-root3)/(5+root3)

multiply with conjugate 5-root3 such that the denominator gets rational 

(5-root3)^2/((5+root3)(5-root3)) = (25-10root3+3)/(25-3)=(28-10root3)/22 = 14/11 - 5root3/11

Factorise x^3-6x^2+9x.

x^3-6x^2+9x=x(x^2-6x+9)

observe binomial formula (x-3)^2=(x^2-6x+9)

Thus x(x-3)^2 and the function has two points meeting the x-axis.

Given df/dx=2x+3 and the graph goes through (1,1), what is the function f?

First step: integrate int df/dx = x^2+3x+c (never forget the constant!) 

Second step: substitute the point in order to get c 

1 = (1)^2+3*1+c -> c = 1-1-3=-3
