A general function f(x) has the property f(-x)=-f(x). State a trigonometric function with this property and explain using the Maclaurin series expansion for this function why this property holds. Write down the integral in the limits -q to q of f(x) wrt x

Note that this property is the definition of an odd function, or draw a sketch of what this looks like in general about the horizontal axis. E.g. f(x)=sin(x) which has the expansion f(x)=x-((x^3)/3!)+((x^...

Rearrange to make x the subject of the equation: 4(3x+y) = 12-2y

To tackle this question, start by expanding the brackets:
12x + 4y = 12 - 2y
Making x the subject of the equation requires x to be on its own. 
So, in this example, we need to first get ...

Find the derivative of f(x)=x^3 sin(x)

Find the derivative of f(x)=xsin(x).

To do this calculation we need to use the product rule of differentiation: if f(x)=u(x)v(x), then the derivative is f'(x)=u'(x)v(x)+u(x)v'(x). In o...

Given that y=x^3 +2x^2, find dy/dx . Hence find the x-coordinates of the two points on the curve where the gradient is 4.

First of all we are asked to differentiate the function. This can be easily done by multiplying the coefficient of x by its exponent, and then decreasing the exponent by one. Therefore, dy/dx=3x^2+4x We a...

find dy/dx for the equation y = 6x ^(1/2)+x+3

Here you are being asked to differentiate. When differentiating, you times the value of x by its power and then subtract 1 from the power. So for this question you times 6x^(1/2) by 1/2 and then subtract ...
