To solve x² - 8x + 15 = 0 we could try to use the Product, Sum, Numbers method (PSN).

The PSN method tells us that our numbers must multply to make the product of the first and...

The integration by parts rule looks like this:

∫ u * v' dx = u * v - ∫ ( v * u' ) dx

Hence in this example, we want to make our u = x and v' = sinx

So we now n...

We are looking for dy/dx, and in this question, the key rule to remember is the chain rule.

Therefore the first thing to do is the easy step, take the ³ down and minus 1 from i...

We should put the names aside to begin with and just look at the ratio and the price. In order to find out how much the ratio 3, the ratio 4 and the ratio 8 are worth, we need to find out how much the ...

Using Vieta's formulas, which make the correspondence between the sums and products of the roots of a polynomial and its coefficients, we can deduce that a + b = (-8)/2 = -4, ab = 1/2 =0.5 and a^2 ...
