Differentiate the function f(x) = sin(x)/(x^2 +1) , giving your answer in the form of a single fraction. Is x=0 a stationary point of this curve?

The key concepts to apply in this question will be the product and chain rules, namely: if f(x)=g(x)h(h), then f'(x)=g(x)h'(x) + g'(x)h(x), and if h(x)=u(v(x)), then h'(x)=u'(v(x))v'(x). Equivalently, you...

Show that: [sin(2a)] / [1+cos(2a)] = tan(a)

We start by expanding out the double trigonometric terms (sin(2a)) using the double angle formula, giving us: [2sin(a)cos(a)] / [1+cos^2(a) - sin^2(a)]. Next we spot that on the denominator (bottom half o...

What does it mean when I get a negative value when I do a definite integral?

The definite integral gives the value of the area bounded between the curve at the given limits, and the x-axis (if we are integrating with respect to x!) If this value is negative, it means that the area...

Callum mixes a drink such that the Fruit Juice and Water is a ratio of 1:4 respectively. Calculate how much of both the Fruit Juice and the Water Callum will need in order to make 2 litres of juice. (Water: ____ml, Fruit Juice: ____ml )

A ratio of 1:4 means there are 5 parts to the mixture.
2 litres of drink divided into 5 parts means there are 400 ml per part (2000ml/5 parts).
As Fruit Juice has 1 part, Callum would need 400...
