The line L has equation y = 5 - 2x. (a) Show that the point P (3, -1) lies on L. (b) Find an equation of the line perpendicular to L that passes through P.

(a) To confirm that point P lies on L, we must substitute x = 3 into the equation and see if we get y = -1. y = 5 - 2(3) = -1, therefore P lies on the line L (b) The gradient of the perpendicular line is ...

Differentiate f(x) with respect to x. Find the stationary value and state if it is a maxima, minima or point of inflection f(x) = 6x^3 + 2x^2 + 1

differentiate 6x^3 + 2x^2 + 1 = 18x^2 + 4x

To determine stationary point set second derivative to zero

2nd derivative =36x + 4

36x + 4 = 0 therefore x = -4/36 = -1/9

x is -ve t...
