The curve C has equation y = 2x^2 - 12x + 16 Find the gradient of the curve at the point P (5, 6).

The most simple way to find the gradient of a quadratic curve at a point is to differentiate. Through differentiation a function for the gradient at each value of x can be found. 'y' must be isolated on o...

Prove the identity: (sinx - tanx)(cosx - cotx) = (sinx - 1)(cosx - 1)

(sinx - tanx)(cosx - cotx)= (sinx - sinx/cosx)(cosx - cosx/sinx)= sinxcosx - (sinx + cosx) + 1= (sinx - 1)(cosx - 1)

Prove by induction that the nth triangle number is given by n(n+1)/2

base case: (1 x 2)/2 = 1 as required inductive step: assuming statement holds for n=k, the (k+1)th triangle number is given by k(k+1)/2 + (k+1) by definition=(k^2+3k+2)/2=(k+1)(k+2)/2=(k+1)((k+1)+1)/2resu...

How would I go about drawing the graph of f(x) = sin(x)/(e^x) for -π≤x≤2π?

Drawing this graph uses the same techniques as with most other functions. Just from inspection, we can see that as x increases, e^x also increases, and so the amplitude of the function will decrease (and ...
