Take the polynomial p(x)=x^4+x^3+2x^2+4x-8, use the factor theorem to write p(x) as two linear factors and an irreducible quadratic. An irreducible quadratic is a quadratic that can not be factorised.

We must use the factor theorem since that is what the question asks. So we take p(x) and think about the factors of 8 we then evaluate it at x=1 to start, then move onto x=-1,2,-2 and so on. We see that i...

How would the integral ∫x^2sin2xdx be solved using integration by parts?

The general formula for integration by parts is given as
∫u(dv/dx)dx = uv - ∫v(du/dx)dx
given that the equation to be solved is ∫x2sin2xdx, the values for u, v, du/dx and dv/dx can ...

Solve x^2+5x+6=0 by factorising

First of all, when we expand brackets we know that the x will be at the start of the brackets 

(x    )(x    )= 0

Look a the equation again, x2+5x+6=0. All of our numbers are posit...

fifty two thousand, seven hundred, and twenty four people went to a concert. Write this in numbers and round it to the nearest thousand.

52,724 53,000 We round up because 7 is greater than 5 and is therefore closer to 10 than 0.

A stone is thrown from a bridge 10m above water at 30ms^-1 30 degrees above the horizontal. How long does the stone take to strike the water? What is its horizontal displacement at this time?

The first thing to do for part a) is work out the vertical component of the velocity. By drawing a triangle where 30m/s is the hypotenuse with angles of 30 degrees, 90 degrees, and 60 degrees, and by appl...
