Differentiate (x^2)cos(3x) with respect to x

First we start off by seeing that we are multiplying together two functions both containing x, so we want to apply the product rule. As we know the product rule is (f(x)g(x))'=f(x)g'(x)+f'(x)g(x) so we ca...

Find the gradient at the point (0, ln 2) on the curve with equation e^2y = 5 − e^−x

Question is asking for gradient at x = 0, y = ln2. e^2y = 5 - e^-x. Differentiation with respect to x: 2e^2y * dy/dx = e^-x . dy/dx = e^-x / 2e^2y. At x = 0, y = ln2 ~ dy/dx = e^0 / 2e^2ln2 = 1 / 2e^ln4 =...
