Find dy/dx of the curve x^3+5xy-2y^2-57=0

3x2+5y+5x(dy/dx)-4y(dy/dx)=0

3x2+5y=(5x-4y)dy/dx

dy/dx=(3x2+5y)/(5x-4y)

Given that y=x/(2x+5) find dy/dx.

Using the quotient rule: Let u=x and v=2x+5 then du/dx= 1 and dv/dx=2 Hence dy/dx=[(2x+5)x1- (2x)]/(2x+5)2             =5/(2x+5)2

Integrate xsin2x

Integrate by parts: integral = [uv] - ∫u'v dx (u'= derivative of u, v'= derivative of v)

u= x     u'= 1

v' = sin2x        v= -0.5cos2x

= -0.5xcosx  -  ∫-0.5cos2x dx

= -0.5xcosx...

What is the area bound by the x-axis, the lines x=1 and x=3 and the curve y=3x^(2)-1/x ? Answer in exact form.

Integrate, y= 3x-1/x

 1{3x- 1/x dx = [x-lnx]31= (3-ln3)-(1-ln1) = 3-ln3-1+0= 2-ln3

f(x)=x^3 + x^2 -10x +8 show that (x-1) is a factor of f(x), Factorise f(x) fully , sketch the graph of f(x)

f(1)=0

f(x)=(x-1)(x+4)(x-2)
