Find the area bounded be the curve with the equation y = x^2, the line x = 1, the line x = -1, and the x-axis.

The answer is 2/3. This can either be obtained by performing a standard integration of y=x^2, using the power rule, between x = 1 and x = -1. Alternatively, integrate y = x^2 between x = 0 and x = 1, then...

How do you sketch the curve y=(x^2 - 4)(x+3), marking on turning points and values at which it crosses the x axis

First, factorise the equation into y = (x+3)(x-2)(x+2), nothing that x2-4 is the difference of two squares so is easy to factorise. From the factorised equation, the points at which the curve...

The sum of the first K natural numbers is 300. Find the value of K.

S= 0.5n(n+1) ( formula for the sum of the first n natural numbers) 0.5K(K+1)= 300 ( sub in K and make the formula equal to the total sum given) 0.5K(K+1)-300= 0 ( take away 300 from both sides) ...
