A straight line passes through the point (2,1) and has a gradient of 3. Find the co-ordinates of the points where this line intersects the axes

M=3 y1=1 x1=2 y-y1=m(x=x1) y-1=3(x-2) y-1=3(x-2) y-1=3x-6 y=3x-6 at the x axis, y=0. ‘Sub in to find the x co-rdinate: 0=3x-5 3x=5 x=5/3 (5/3, 0) at the y axis, x=0 y=(0X3)-5 y=-5 (0,-5)

A football is kicked at 30 m/s at an angle of 20° to the horizontal. It travels towards the goal which is 25 m away. The crossbar of the goal is 2.44 m tall. (A) Does the ball go into the goal, hit the crossbar exactly, or go over the top?

With questions about projectiles, such as a ball travelling in the shape of a parabola through the air as in the above question, it is always good to split the problem into the horizontal and vertical compon...

Differentiate x^cos(x) and find the derivative of cosec^-1(x)

for part a) let y=x cos(X) , the ln(y)=ln (x cos(X) )=cos(x)ln(x), thus d/dx (ln(y(x)) = d/dx (cos(x)ln(x)), 1/y*dy/dx=cox(x)/x - sinxlnx => solve for dy/dx => y'(x)=x cos(X) (cox(x)/x - sinxlnx) b) d/...
