how do I differentiate?

look at the power of term and multiply the coefficient of that term by the value of the power, then reduce the value of the terms power by 1. for example after differentiation 5Xbecomes 20X

y = (x^2)sin(3x). Find dy/dx

We need to differentiate x2sin(3x). We know how to differentiate (x2) on its own, and how to differentiate sin(3x) on its own. So we can use the Product rule:

dy/dx = (d/dx(x<...

dx/dt=-5x/2 t>=0 when x=60 t=0

dx/dt=-5x/2 Int(x, dx)=Int(-5/2, dt) ln(x)=-5t/2+c x=60 when t=0 ln(60)=c ln(x)=ln(60)-5t/2 x=eln(60)-5t/2 x=60/e5t/2

Given that sin(x)^2 + cos(x)^2 = 1, show that sec(x)^2 - tan(x)^2 = 1 (2 marks). Hence solve for x: tan(x)^2 + cos(x) = 1, x ≠ (2n + 1)π and -2π < x =< 2π(3 marks)

sin(x)2 + cos(x)2 = 1

Dividing by cos(x)2 gives:

tan(x)2 + 1 = sec(x)2 

Which rearranges as:

sec(x)2 - tan(x)<...
