Step One: stationary/turning points are points on the curve where the gradient equals 0 (i.e. a point at which the slope changes from negative to positive, or vice versa). So we ne...

a) Using log rules, a^x=b becomes log(a)b=x. If we take ln of both sides, we get ln(e^(3x-9))=ln8. ln(e) =1, so we just get 3x-9=ln8. Now we can simply manipulate this to get x=(9+ln8)/3=3+(1/3)ln8. Anoth...

Start with a). Looking at this equation, the trig identity screaming out is cosx^2+sinx^2=1--> cosx^2=1-sinx^2. Substituting this into the LHS of the equation, and with a bit of algebraic rearrangement...

First it is important to identify that this is an integration by parts question as it can't be solved by substitution.
Let I = integral for ease of notation.Write out integration by parts formula I(...

To integrate you add one to the power and divide by the new power, so this becomes:3t³/3 + 7t²/2 simplifying to t³ + 7/2 t²If we were just performing indefinite...
