Express 9^(3x + 1) in the form 3^y , giving y in the form ax + b, where a and b are constants.

9^ (3x + 1)

We know that 3 to power of 2 equals 9.  3x3 = 3^2 = 9, 

= 3^ (2 * [3x + 1])

We simply the term because 2 * [3x + 1] = 6x + 2

= 3^ ( 6x + 2) 

This term is in ...

A tunnel has height, h, (in metres) given by h=14-x^2 where x is the horizontal distance from the centre of the tunnel. Find the cross sectional area of the tunnel. Also find the maximum height of a truck passing through the tunnel that is 4m wide.

Firstly, solve 0=14-x^2 to find the horisontal distance to the edges of the tunnel. x1=sqrt(14), x2= -sqrt(14).

Integrate h=14-x^2 between x1 and x2 28*sqrt(14) -(2(sqrt(14)^3))/3. This is the requ...

Express 3(x^2) - 12x + 5 in the form a(x - b)^2 - c.

Starting with a(x - b)^2 - c, if we expand the bracket we get:

a(x^2 - 2xb + b^2) -c

Since we need to end up with the coefficient on x^2 being 3 and in the expression above x^2 is only multi...

Make x the subject of the equation. y = 4( 2 + x )/ (6x -1)

First lets times both sides by (6x -1) y(6x - 1) = 4(2 + x) now lets expand the brackets 6xy - y = 8 + 4x now lets move all the ones with x as a factor onto one side of the equation and the rest on the ot...

Calculate the area of a circle of diameter 8cm

Solution: 

We can first write down the formula for the area of a circle which is pi*(radius)^2.

The radius of the circle is half the diameter, so radius= 1/2(8)=4cm.

Therefore the are...
