By using an integrating factor, solve the differential equation dy/dx + 4y/x = 6x^-3 (6 marks)

Answer : y = 3/x 2 + c/x 4 Integrating factor is 4/x (1 mark) => I = e integral (4/x) dx (1 mark) => I = x 4 (1 mark) . Using the formula, d/dx (x 4 y) = 6x (1 mark) => x 4 y = integral(6x)dx (1 mar...

A curve has the equation y=sin(x)cos(x), find the gradient of this curve when x = pi. (4 marks)

Option 1 - Differentiate using product rule giving dy/dx = cos 2 (x) - sin 2 (x). (2 marks) Subbing in x as pi (1 mark) then gives (-1) 2 + (0) 2 . Therefore the gradient is 1 (1 mark) . Option 2 - Initially...
