Find the exact solution of the equation in its simplest form: 3^x * e^4x = e^7.

First take natural logs of both sides, giving us: ln(3x * e4x) = ln(e7).  The RHS can be simplified using the definition of natural logs, so ln(e7) = 7.

Express x^2-7x+2 in the form (x-p)^2+q where p and q are rational. Hence or otherwise find the minimum value of x^2-7x+2

For the first part, use the 'complete the square method', which gives (x-7/2)-49/4+2, simplified to (x-7/2)2-41/4. To find the answer for the second part, set x=7/2 so that the bra...

Find the binomial expansion of (2+x)^3

We know thst the binomial expansion formula is (1+x)= 1+nx +(n)(n-1)(x2)/2! ...etc

Thus we want to rearrange the expression we are given into the form (1+x)so t...

Given that y = 3x(^2) + 6x(^1/3) + (2x(^3) - 7)/(3(sqrt(x))) when x > 0 find dy/dx

Firstly, the (2x(^3) - 7)/(3(sqrt(x))) can be split into (2x(^3))/(3(sqrt(x)) and -7/(3(sqrt(x)). These can then be simplified to (2/3)x(^5/2) and -(7/3)x(^-1/2) respectively. This then gives the equation...

Integrate, by parts, y=xln(x),

First, we need to separate the RHS as components of U and V. Using the LATE (logarithms, algebra, trigonometry, exponentials) technique, we see that logarithms have priority to algebra hence U = lnx and d...
