First, make sure that the tutee understands using radians, and get them to do some examples of swapping between radians and degrees to ensure familiarity.Then explain to the tutee that they already intuit...

Differentiation is a method used to find the rate of change of a function with respect to a given variable, eg. how f(x) changes with respect to x. There are different ways to find the derivative of a fun...

Ask if they have found derivations before.If not:When we differentiate a polynomial like this by using the fact that:The derivative of A^x is xA^(x-1).So, we multiply the unknown variable, A, by the power...

We will figure out the general question first: if we have n consecutive events with two possible outcomes which we will tell "successes" and "failures" with probabilities p and 1-p, re...

Differentiate to get dy/dx=20-2x-6x^2Then stationary points occur when dy/dx = 0 so 0 = 20-2x-6x^2 Factorise to get x= -2, x=5/3Differentiate dy/dx to get second derivative = -2-12x at x=5/3 is -22 so max...
