Express 4x/(x^2-9)-2/(x+3) as a single fraction in its simplest form

4x/(x 2 -9)-2/(x+3) = 4x/((x+3)(x-3))-2/(x+3) = 4x/((x+3)(x-3))-2(x-3)/((x+3)(x-3)) = (4x-2(x-3))/((x+3)(x-3)) = (2x+6)/((x+3)(x-3) = (2(x+3))/((x+3)(x-3)) = 2/(x-3)

Find the equation of the normal to the curve y=2x^3 at the point on the curve where x=2. Write in the form of ax+by=c.

For x = 2, y = 16. Calculate the gradient of the curve at y = 2, dy/dx = 6x^2, dy/dx = 24. This is also the gradient of the tangent to the curve at x = 2. It is a rule that the products of the gradients of t...
