Solve the equation 5(2c - 3) = 19

5(2c - 3) = 19

5x2c - 5x3 = 19

10c - 15 = 19

10c = 19 + 15

10c = 34

c = 34/10 = 3.4

f(x)=2x^3-7x^2+4x+4, prove that (x-2) is a factor and factorise f(x) completely

if (X-2) is a factor, f(2)=0

22^3-72^2+4*2+4= 16-28+8+4=0

therefore (x-2) is a factor.

2x^3-7x^2+4x+4=(x-2)(2x^2-3x-2)=(x-2)(2x+1)(x-2)

Find the derivation of (sinx)(e^2x)

Because there are two forms of x , the form uv'+vu' must be used.

If y=sinx , dy/dx=cosx 

If y=e^kx , dy/dx=ke^kx

Therefore dy/dx=(sinx)(2e^2x)+(e^2x)(cosx)
