Given that y = 4x^3 -1 + 2x^1/2 (where x>0) find dy/dx.

This is an example of a common AS differentiation Q. To find dy/dx simply apply the power rule to each term in the equation. The power rule is if you have a term x^n then dy/dx will be n times x^(n-1). e....

The weight in grams, of beans in a tin is normally distributed with mean U and S.D. 7.8, given that 10% conntain more than 225g a) Find U b) % of tins that contain more than 225 grams(A2 stats)

for part a) you would need to use the formula (x-U)/S.D.=a where X=200 and S.D.=7.8. The student would need to calculate a with the information given. I here would use standard normal distribution here to...
