Find dy/dx of the equation (x^3)*(y)+7x = y^3 + (2x)^2 +1 at point (1,1)

Use the product rule d(u.v)/dx = u.(dv/dx) + v(du/dx). Calculate the LHS as such first. (Demonstrate on whiteboard.) Then calculate the RHS. (Demonstrate on whiteboard.) Group the dy/dx terms on one side ...

Natasha has two bags of fruit. both bags have the same number of fruit in total. 1/3rd of the fruit in bag 1 are apples and 15% of the fruit in bag 2 are apples. There are 20 apples in bag 1, how many apples are in bag 2?

Using the fact that 1/3rd of the fruit in bag 1 are apples and there are 20 apples in total you can work out that there are 60 pieces of fruit in bag 1. This is found by doing 20 x 3 = 60.

Then usi...

The curve C is defined by x^3 – (4x^2 )y = 2y^3 – 3x – 2. Find the value of dy/dx at the point (3, 1).

When we find dy/dx we find the gradient of the curve at (3,1). Start by differentiating the left hand side (LHS) like so.. (whiteboard). Remember every time we differentiate a y value we multiply by dy/dx...

Sketch the curve y=4-(x+3)^2, showing the points where the curve crosses the x-axis and any minimum or maximum points.

This equation rearranges to give -y=(x+3)^2-4, which is very similar to our curve y=(x+3)^2-4 from before. In fact, replacing y with -y in an equation is equivalent to reflecting the curve through the x-a...
