First, we are going to give our decimal a name, let's call it x. We notice that x repeats after two digits, so how about we look at 100x.

100x = 54.54545454...

But, the deci...

There are 2 methods we can use here.

Method 1 - Factorisation

If we can rewrite the equation so that it looks like (x+a)*(x+b)=0, where 'a' and 'b' are numb...

X²+3X+5X+15

Take the first X in the first bracket and multiply by every number or letter in the second bracket.

Take the Second number in the first bracket and mu...

8x³-12x²-2x+D...(1)

2x+1...(2)

Assume 2x+1=0 so x=-1/2

8x³-12x²-2x+D=-2... when divided by (2)

substi...

To answer this question we require the chain rule, which states that dy/dx=(dy/du)*(du/dx)

To use this formula in our question, we can let y=ln(sin(3x))=ln(u) where u=sin(3x)
