Given that y = 4x^5 - 5/(x^2) , x=/=0 , find a)dy/dx b)indefinite integral of y

rewrite as y = 4x^5 - 5x^(-2)

dy/dx = 20x^4 + 10x^(-3)

integral of y = 4x^6 / 6 + 5x^(-1) / 1 + c

simplify: 2/3 x^6 + 5/x

Differentiate with respect to x: i) y=x^3ln(2x) ii) y=(x+sin(2x))^3

i) There first step is to acknowledge the need for both product rule (d(uv)/dx=v.du/dx+u.dv/dx) and chain rule (dz/dx=dz/dy*dy/dx). Here, u=x^3 and v=ln(2x). Therefore, du/dx=3x^2 which is a standard diff...

An aeroplane lands on the runway with a velocity of 50 m/s and decelerates at 10 m/s^2 to a velocity of 20 m/s. Calculate the distance travelled on the runway.

Firstly, we note that the acceleration is constant, therefore this problem should be tackled with the SUVAT equations. Let's write down the information we have: s  we are asked to find this u = 50 m/s v =...
