Find the x coordinate of the stationary points of the curve with equation y = 2x^3 - 0.5x^2 - 2x + 4

Firstly, to find the stationary points of a curve you must differentiate the equation of the curve. To do this each x component is multiplied by its current power and then the power is decreased by one. A...

Use the substitution u = cos 2x to find ∫(cos^2*(2x) *sin3 (2x)) dx

∫(cos2 2x *sin3 2x)dx u = cos2x - u =(du/dx) = -2sin2x - differentiate u dx = du/(-2sin(2x)) - dx = -1/2 ∫cos22x * sin22x du - sub in dx-1/2 ∫u2(1-u<...
