Solve the simultaneous equations, 2x+y-5=0 and x^2-y^2=3

2x+y-5=0, y=5-2x (put into second equation) x 2 -y 2 =3, substituting in we get, x 2 -(5-2x) 2 =3, expand, x 2 -(25+4x 2 -20x)=3, simplify, x 2 -25-4x 2 +20x=3, 0=3x 2 -20x+28, put into brackets by seperatin...

Differentiate x^x

x x =e x*ln(x) So d/dx (x x ) = d/dx (e x*ln(x) ) By chain rule, we get d/dx (xln(x)) e x ln(x) Then by product rule we get [ln(x)+1] e x ln(x)
