To solve this integral you need to use integration by parts twice. You separate the two term in the integral into x^2 and sin(x). You then multiple x^2 by the integral of sin(x) (-cos(x)) and apply the up...

Here we have x(t) and y(t) which are both functions of t, but we want dy/dx, which doesn't involve t, we therefore need to use the chain rule. The chain rule tells us that: dy/dx = (dy/dt) x (dt/dx).y = s...

following BIDMAS we start with the second expression by squaring it, i.e. (x-4)(2x + 3y)(2x + 3y). It is important we do it in the right order, otherwise we could get a wrong answer. We use the FOIL (Firs...

To do this we need to find a common denominator. We have an (x + 3) on the right hand side and a difference of two squares ((x^2)-9) on the left hand side. So factorising what looks more complicated is fi...

The first step is to make sure that everything has the same base, so you can equate the powers. For example if you have an equation 2² = 2^x you know that x must equal 2. So with this...
