Find the exact value of x from the equation 3^x * e^4x = e^7

To begin to solve this equation we must take natural logarithms of both sides of the equation. This gives: ln(3^x*e^4x) = lne^7 Then we can use the log rules on the left hand side to expand it slightly to...

Differentiate: y = 4x^3 - 5/x^2

To make this equation easier to differentiate it would be easier to write it using index rules as y = 4x^3 - 5x^-2 From here we can begin to differentiate: dy/dx = 3*4x^(3-1) - (-2)*5x^(-2-1) Then finally...
