Find d/dx (ln(2x^3+x+8))

Use the chain rule: dy/dx = dy/du * du/dx
Let y = ln(2x^3+x+8)Let u = 2x^3+x+8
dy/dx = d/dx (ln(2x^3+x+8)) = dy/du * du/dx
dy/du = 1/udu/dx = 6x^2 + 1
dy/dx = 1/u * (6x^2 + 1) = (1/(2x...

3n + 2 < 14, and 6n / (n ^2 + 5) >1. Find the values that n can take.

This is a inequality question. There are two separate inequalities and the values n can take are the solutions of n that overlap between the 2 inequalities. First inequality: 3n< 12 therefore n <4 ....

Solve this simultaneous equation: 6x+2y = 26 and 8x + 3y = 32

If 6x + 2y = 26 then 26 - 6x = 2yy = 13 - 3xSo, using the substitution method.... into 8x + 3y = 328x + 3(13 - 3x) = 328x + 39 - 9x = 32-x + 39 = 3232 + x = 39x = 39 - 32 = 7Sub x = 7 into 6x + 2y = 266(7...
