y = 9/8 x + 15/4. Explanation in person.

This question has two parts, firstly the "12x(2x+1)" this is a product rule format, the 1/x is a simple differentiation format but for ease should be written as "x^(-1)" solution: dy/d...

Bring the power down and multiply it to the value directly before x, and then remove 1 from the power after this. So in this instance 12 has no x or power with it, therefore it disappears because you mult...

Here you need to use the formula that the differential of e^f(x), where f(x) is any function, is equal to f'(x)e^f(x). So for our function we differentiate xsinx using product rule to give sinx + xcosx. ...
