find the diffrential of 3sin2x+4cos2x

dy/dx=6cos2x-8sin2xExplanation: cos x difrentiates to -sinx, we must times the coefficient of cos2x,(4) , by the differential of 2x (ie 2), giving -(4x2)sin2x.Similarly, sinx differentiates cosx, so using th...

You have three keys in your pocket which you extract in a random way to unlock a lock. Assume that exactly one key opens the door when you pick it out of your pocket. Find the expectation value of the number of times you need to pick out a key to unlock.

Let X be the random variable for this question. P(X=x) = 1/3 for all x. When X=x, we have that it took x times for us to retrieve the correct key.Thus, we have the infinite sum 1/3 + 2 2/3 1/3 + 3*(2/3)^2 1/...
