The line AB has equation 3x +5y = 7 . Find the gradient of AB.

Firstly, you should change the equation into the form y=mx+c where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. This can be done by subtracting 3x from each side of the equation to give 5y=-3x+7. Then divi...

Write down three linear factors of f(x) such that the curve of f(x) crosses the x axis at x=0.5,3,4. Hence find the equation of the curve in the form y = 2(x^3) + a(x^2) + bx + c.

the curve crosses the graph at the x axis at 0.5,3 and -4 so f(0.5)=0, f(3)=0,f(-4)=0. All linear factors are the form of g(x)=(x-a) so 0=g(0.5)=0.5-a. rearranging we get that a=0.5 ie g(x)=x-0.5 similarl...

Integral of 1/(x^3 + 2x^2 -x - 2)

Factorise denominator using the factor theorem giving - 1/(x+1)(x+2)(x-1) Use partial fractions to turn this into an easier form to integrate giving - 1/3(x+2) + 1/6(x-1) - 1/2(x+...

A curve has the equation 2x^2 + xy - y^2 +18 = 0. (1) Find the coordinates of the points where the tangent to the curve is parallel to the x-axis.

Firstly notice that the coordinates of the points where the tangent to the curve is parallel to the x-axis are precisely the points where the rate of change of y with respect to x is not changing. That is...

For Maths 11+. An Island on a map is measured to be 4cm across. The scale of the map is 4cm to 500m. How long is the island in km?

The island is 2km. If the scale is 1cm:500m we need to multiply both left and right sides by 4 to get to the 4cm that was measured. This gets us 4cm: 2000m . We now need to convert 2000m to km which gives...
