y = (x^3)/3 - 4x^2 + 12x find the stationary points of the curve and determine their nature.

first we find the first derivative of the function. Here dy/dx = x^2-8x+12. We set this to zero and factorise to obtain the roots of the function. Such that dy/dx = (x-6)(x-2)= 0. This gives the stationar...

Solve the simultaneous equations y=2x and y=x+3

As both equations have y on the left hand side we can put the right hand sides equal to each other, so 2x=x+3. We can then subtract x from both sides. This gives 2x-x on the left hand side which is x, and...
