How do you find the turning points of a graph and how do you if the point is a maximum or a minimum?

Firstly you have to find the turning points of the graph. This is done by differentiating the equation of the line. Once you have found this first derivative, equate the equation to zero. Now solve the eq...

Integrate (x)(e^x) with respect to x and then integrate (x)(e^x) with respect to y.

i) By integration by parts, we see that it equals (x)(e^x)-(e^x)+C, where C denotes the constant of integration. ii) (x)(y)(e^x)+C, where C denotes the constant of integration.

How do you find the possible values of cos(x) from 5cos^2(x) - cos(x) = sin^2(x)?

First, you start by replacing sin^2(x) with 1-cos^2(x) as you want the equation to be in terms of cos(x) and you know sin^2(x)+cos^2(x) = 1. Then you rearrange the equation to get 0 on one side so that yo...

By completing the square, find the values of x that satisfy x^4 -8x^2 +15 = 0

x^4 -8x^2 +15 = 0, we rewrite the equation in square form as (x^2-4)^2 -16 +15 =0 (x^2 -4)^2 = 1 x^2 -4 = ±1 so x^2 = 4±1, (x^2 = 3 or x^2 = 5) Therefore x = {-√3, √3, -√5, √5)

Find the turning point of the function y=f(x)=x^2+4x+4 and state wether it is a minimum or maximum value.

In order to find turning points, we differentiate the function. Hence we get f'(x)=2x + 4. Setting f'(x)=0 we get x = -2 and inputting this into f(x) we get y = 0 therefore the turning point is (-2,0). To...
