a) You area told that y is proportional to x2 and that when y = 75, x = 5. Find a formula for y in terms of x. y = x b) Find the value of y when x = 3. c) Find the value of x when y = 1200.

a) y is proportional to x^2, when x is 5, y is 75

Therefore: 75 = (something multiplied by) 5^2

differentiate x^3(1+x)^5 with respect for x

First we have to use the product rule, remember that if we have h(x)=f(x)g(x) then h'(x)=f'(x)g(x)+f(x)g'(x).So h'(x) = x^3D[(x+1)^5]+(x+1)^5D[x^3]Completing the unfinished derivatives,h'(x) = x^3[5(x+1)^...
