I'm supposed to calculate the differential of f(x)= sin(x)*ln(x)*(x-4)^2 using the product rule. I know what the product rule is but I can't split this into two bits that are easy to differentiate. How do I do it?

You say you are familiar with the product rule i.e. f(x)=u(x)v(x) f'(x)= u(x)v'(x)+v(x)u'(x) (Equation 1) OK so why don't we try applying that here let's try splitting the function in this problem down into ...

Solve 9x-4=7(x+2)

BIDMAS is used to determine the first step in solving this problem. The bracket on the right hand side is expanded first. 9x-4=7x+14. Now the x's and numbers must be moved to opposite sides of the equals sig...

How do you form a Cartesian equation from two parametric equations?

If the two parametric equations have the form x = a t + b and y = c t + d then the first step is to rearrange one to make the parameter 't' the subject. We then substitute this equation for 't' into the othe...
