The point A lies on the curve y=5(x^2)+9x , The tangent to the curve at A is parralel to the line 2y-x=3. Find an equation to this tangent at A.

y-(any value of the function)=0.5(x-(any value in the domain))

e.g. Point with point A being (1,14) The answer would be y-14=0.5(x-1)

Describe and explain the vertical motion of a parachutist which jumps out of an aeroplane at time t=0 and then releases the parachute shortly after reaching terminal velocity at time t=T. (Assume air resistance is not negligible).

We need to understand both what this question is asking of us, and what the question tells us. We are asked to investigate the motion of the parachutist, therefore in this case we need to apply Newton’s L...

Express cos(x) + (1/2)sin(x) in terms of a single resultant sinusoidal wave of the form Rsin(x+a)

cos(x) + (1/2)sin(x) :

Rsin(x + a) = R{sin(x)cos(a) + cos(x)sin(a)} = (1/2)sin(x) + (1)cos(x) (comparing coeffs.)

Therefore Rcos(a) = 1/2 and separately Rsin(a) = 1 So tan(a) = 2 and R^2 =...

Find the general solution, in degrees, of the equation 2 sin(3x+45°)= 1

A general way of solving these equations is getting them to the form sin(y)=k. In this case, to do so, we have to divide by 2 and then put y=3x+45° We then get si...
