(x+3)(x-4)(x+5) is identical to x^3 +ax^2 -17x+b. Find the value of a and the value of b.

Multiplying out the first two brackets gives (x^2-x-12)(x+5). Multiplying the remaining brackets gives x^3 + 4x^2 -17x - 60.

a = 4b = 60

Find out the stationary points of the function f(x)=x^2*e^(-2x)

Using the product rule (u'v+v'u, where u and v are the chosen substitutes) to find the first derivative will be dy/dx=x'=2xe^(-2x)+x^(2)e^(-2x)(-2)=2xe^(-2x)(x-x^2). This will give the d...
