u=4x       u'=4

v=x^2+5         v'=2x

dy/dx=(20-4x^2)/(x^2+5)^2 (simplified)

The mass, m grams, of a substance is increasing exponentially so that the mass at time t hours is m=250e^(0.021t). Find the time taken for the mass to double in value.

All exponential equations can be reduced to the form m=m0ekt, where m0 is the initial mass. This means for our equation the initial mass is 250g. If the mass has doubled i...
