Prove by induction that, for n ∈ Z⁺ , [3 , -2 ; 2 , -1]ⁿ = [2n+1 , -2n ; 2n , 1-2n]

STEP 1: Prove that the theorem holds for n = 1. Substitute n = 1 into the equation and show that the LHS = RHS.
STEP 2: Assume that the relation is true when n = k.
STEP 3: Prove that the relat...

A curve has the equation y=3 + x^2 -2x^3. Find the two stationary points of this curve.

At stationary point the derivative of y with respect to x equals zero. Find dy/dx. dy/dx = 2x - 6x2.Set dy/dx = 0 ,giving 2x - 6x2 = 0. We can rearrange this to x(1-3x) = 0 and solve...

Find the derivative of the following function: f(x) = x(x^3 + 2x)

f(x) becomes f'(x)1) First multiply out the brackets (by adding the indices) = x^4 + 2x^22) Then differentiate this. The indices moves to the front and multiplied by the number before the x. The indices i...
