Solve the equation 3 sin^2 theta = 4 cos theta − 1 for 0 ≤ theta ≤ 360

I would convert the sin squared theta into a cos squared theta using identity that sin sq + cos sq = 1This would then give me a quadratic equation which I would substitute X = cos thetaThen I would solve ...

How would you integrate ln(x)

It can seem tricky to integrate ln(x), as there is no obvious solution to do it.It is, however, quite simple to do if you use the 'by parts' method.If you have y=ln(x)Set u=ln(x) and dv/dx=1That gives du/...

y=e^2x-11e^x+24 Find the stationary point, nature of the stationary point, the x-intercepts and the y-intercept (calculator allowed)

Stationary point:
dy/dx = 2e^2x - 11e^x =0
2e^2x = 11e^x
e^x=5.5 (can divide by e^x since e^x > 0 for all x)
x=ln(5.5), y=5.5^2-115.5+24=-6.25

What is the gradient of this curve y=5x^3+6x^2+7x+8 at point x=3?

When differentiating an equation (y) you find the equation of the gradient, called dy/dx. The rule for differentiating a power of x is given below:y=x^n dy/dx= nx^(n-1)Applying this rule to this question ...
