In order to find the area bounded by a curve and the horizontal axis, we must integrate the curve between the specified limits.

Firstly we must integrate the curve x^2-2x+3. To integrate ...

A reaction in which a substance is broken down into 2 or more substances by heat. An example is the breakdown of calcium carbonate into carbon dioxide and calcium oxide.

...

At the point where the line crosses the x axis, y=0

3x^2+7x-6=0

(3x-2)(x+3)=0

3x-2=0 or x+3=0

giving x=2/3 and x=-3

so the line cro...

use the chain rule on the y^2 term to get 2y*(dy/dx)

hence the overall solution is 2x + 2y*(dy/dx)

Oceanic crust is thinner and more dense than continental crust. This is because it has been compressed by the weight of the oceans it carries above it. It is also much younger than Continental crust, a...
