Solve the simultaneous equations: (1) y – 2x – 4 = 0 , (2) 4x^2 + y^2 + 20x = 0

Rearrange (1): y=2x+4

Subsitute this into (2): 4x2+(2x+4)2+20x=0

Simplify and collect like terms: 8x2+36x+16=0

Factorise: (2x+1)(x+4)=0

Therefo...

A small stone is projected verically upwards from a point O with a speed of 19.6ms^-1. Modeeling the stone as a particle moving freely under gravity find the time for which the stone is more than 14.6m above O

S = 14.7, U = 19.6, V =,  A = -g, T = t

using s = ut + 1/2 at^2
14.7 = 19.6t + 1/2 -g t^2
1/2 g t^2 - 19.6t + 14.7 = 0

t = (19.6 +- sqrroot(-19.6- 4 * 0.5 * 9.8 * 14...

differentiate (1+2x^2)^(1/2)

This differentiation requires use of the chain rule. The first step is to differentiate the whole thing, treating the bracket as u, so u=1+2x2. Therefore we are differentiating u1/2....

Find the perpendicular bisector passing through the stationary point of the curve y=x^2+2x-7.

First thing to do is to find the stationary point of the curve. This is done by differentiating the function and then equating to zero, as the gradient of the stationary point is zero. Setting dy/dx to ze...
