Solve to find sin x , 4cos^2 + 7sin x -7 =0

4cos2 x + 7 sinx - 7 =0 we know that sin+ cos2 = 1 so 4(1-sin2x) + 7sinx -7 = 0 if we times out the brackets -4sin2x + 7 sinx -3 =0 4sin2

Integrate xcos(x)

This problem will be solved using the integration by parts method, taking the integrated function as udv which answer is uv-(integration of vdu) : u=x and dv=cos(x) so, du=dx and v=sin(x). We have, xsin(x...

Find the derivative of sinx, use that to find the derivative of xsinx

the derivative of sinx is cosx, then we know that we can apply the product rule to find derivative of xsinx, such that if we let u=x and v=sinx and apply the formula d/dx(xsinx)=udv/dx+vdu/dx. to...

Implicitly differentiate the following equation to find dy/dx in terms of x and y: 2x^2y + 2x + 4y – cos (piy) = 17

Firstly remember that each part of the equation can be differentiated separately. Let's label each part:

Part A: 2(x^2)y

Part B: 2x

Part C: 4y

Part D: -cos(piy)

Part E: ...
