Integrate ln(x)/(x^3)

Using integration by parts split it into v'=(1/x^3) and u=ln(x). v=-1/2x^2 and u'=1/x. Integral ln(x)/(x^3) = u*v - Integral u'*v = -ln(x)*1/2x^2 - 1/4x^2 + c

Solve the simultaneous equations: y=x/2 + 2 and 2y+3x=12

Label the equations (1): y=x/2 + 2 and (2): 2y+3x=12. Firstly, multiply equation (1)by 2, this will give you (1a): 2y=x+4, then, substitute (1a) into (2). This gives you (x+4)+3x=12. Therefore, 4x+4=12. 4...
