Use algebra to find the set of values of x for which mod(3x^2 - 19x + 20) < 2x + 2.

The initial quadratic can be either positive or negative so we must solve for both possibilities.

Solving for positive:

3x^2 - 19x + 20 < 2x + 2    =    3x^2 - 21x + 18 < 0

z = 4 /(1+ i) Find, in the form a + i b where a, b belong to R, (a) z, (b) z^2. Given that z is a complex root of the quadratic equation x^2 + px + q = 0, where p and q are real integers, (c) find the value of p and the value of q.

a) Need to multiply with conjugate to bring z to form a+ib. => z= z * (1-i)/(1-i) = (4-4i) / 2 = 2-2i

b) z^2 = (2-2i)^2 = 4-8i+4 i^2 = 4-8i-4 = 8i

since z is root of x^2+px+q=0 then z* (c...

Express cos5x in terms of increasing powers of cosx

De Moivre's theorem: (cos5x + isin5x) = (cosx + isinx)5 To get cos5x we will need to expand (cosx + isinx)5 and then take the real parts. Binomial expansion: (cosx + isinx)5

Show, using the focus-directrix property for an ellipse, that PS +PS'=2a where P is a point on the ellipse and S and S' are the two foci.

The focus diretrix property for an ellipse is PS/PD=e. Now this is also the case for the other directrix and focus, so PS'/PD'=e. Now we can rearrange these equations to find a formula for PS +PS', PS +PS...
