Find the intersection points between the graphs y=2x+5 and y=x^2-9.

To do this, first draw a sketch of both graphs to see roughly what kind of result we should expect to get. We know that at the intersection points, the values of x and y for both graphs must be equal. so ...

Use the chain rule to differentiate y=1/x^2-2x-1

First we will rewrite y so it is written with a power: y=1/x2-2x-1=(x2-2x-1)-1 Now let u=x2-2x-1 => du/dx = 2x -2 Writing y in terms of u: y=u-1 =...
