The line AB has equation 3x +5y = 7 . Find the gradient of AB.

Firstly, you should change the equation into the form y=mx+c where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. This can be done by subtracting 3x from each side of the equation to give 5y=-3x+7. Then divi...

Write down three linear factors of f(x) such that the curve of f(x) crosses the x axis at x=0.5,3,4. Hence find the equation of the curve in the form y = 2(x^3) + a(x^2) + bx + c.

the curve crosses the graph at the x axis at 0.5,3 and -4 so f(0.5)=0, f(3)=0,f(-4)=0. All linear factors are the form of g(x)=(x-a) so 0=g(0.5)=0.5-a. rearranging we get that a=0.5 ie g(x)=x-0.5 similarl...
