Integrate the function f(x)=3^x+2 with respect to x

First note that a=eln(a) and ln(ab)=bln(a)By substituting a=3x we get a=3x=eln(3^x)=exln(3), and hence f(x)=exln(3)

Find the maximum value of 2sin(x)-1.5cos(x)

Put the equation in the form Rsin(x-a) (=Rsin(x)cos(a)-Rcos(x)sin(a)). Looking at the original equation Rcos(a) = 2 and Rsin(a) = 1.5. Tan(a)=1.5/2 and R^2= 2^2 +1.5^2. Therefore R = 2.5 and a = 0.6435.Th...

Given that y = cos(3x)cosec(5x), use the product rule to find dy/dx.

Write out the product rule: if y=f(x)g(x) where f and g are functions, dy/dx = f'(x)g(x) + f(x)g'(x)
Substitute in the expressions from the question:Therefore if f(x)=cos(3x) and g(x) = cosec(5x), f'...

How do you expand and simplify (x − 6)(x + 2y)^2

start of by expanding the braquet which has got a power(x + 2y) (x + 2y) = X2 + 2xy + 2xy + 4Y2then simplify that => x2 + 4xy + 4y2then multiply that by (x -...

How do you find the equation of a tangent to a curve at a certain point, from the equation of the curve?

First thing you would do is write down the coordinates where the tangent meets the curve. After that you would differenciate the equation (f(x)) of the curve (do dy/dx) in order to get f'(x).Then you woul...
