To differentiate the quotient of two functions f(x)/g(x) you can use the quotient rule, the formula of which is: (f'(x)*g(x)-f(x)*g'(x))/g2(x)

it is important to remember which...

Solve 5x - 7 = 3x + 2, to find the value of x

x = 4.5 

Rearrange the equation, so that like terms are on the same side:

5x - 3x = 2 +7

2x = 9

Then to find x, divide 9 by 2

x = 4...

Solve the inequality 3x ≤ 4x+5

So I would begin by minusing 5 from both sides and that will give you 3x - 5 ≤ 4x. Then we want to gather our x's onto one side, so I would '-3x' from both sides which leaves you with - 5 ≤ 4x - 3 x, s...

Do the following vector equations intersect? l = (1 + μ)i + (2 - μ)j + (2μ - 5)k, and m = 2λi + 3j + (2 + λ)k.

Firstly we must appreciate that if there is an intersection between l and m, this means that there exists a point that occurs on both lines. Therefore if there is an inte...

Solve this equation; 5x - 4 = 3x + 7

In order to solve equations of x it is necessary to move all the Xs over to one side and the other numbers over to the other side;

5x - 4 = 3x + 7

As 5x is greater than 3x i...
