How can the y=sin(x) graph be manipulated?
First, lets sketch a simple y=sin(x) graph between 0 and 2Pi radians.There are 4 different places a number could be put into this equation to affect the y=sin(x) graph.y=2sin(x) will stretch the graph to be ...

What method should I use to differentiate equations with an x as the power of a number. E.g. 2^x
Take the log of both sidesln(y) = ln(2^x)This can be re-written as:ln(y) = ln(2)*xTake the exponent of both sidese^ln(y) = e^(ln(2)*x)Which gives:y = e^(ln(2)*x)Since ln(2) is a constant, apply the usual met...

Why does integration by parts work?
Let's consider the form of the formula we use for integration by parts: the integral of u * dv/dx = uv - the integral of v * du/dx. We know that integration is the inverse of differentiation, so we should be...
