Given that y= x^(-3/2) + (1/2)x^4 + 2, Find: (a) the integral of y (b) the second differential of y

This is a typical question for a Core 1 paper. (a) integral of y = (-2)x^(-1/2) + 0.1x^5 + 2x +C Method: Increase the power of x by +1, divide the term through by the new power. (b) dy/dx = (-3/2)x^(-5/2)...

Write down the coordinates of the turning point of the graph y = x^2 – 8x + 25

First, for this graph dy/dx = 2x-8. At a turning point of any graph, dy/dx=0. Therefore 2x-8=0. x=4. Plug x value back into original graph formula : (4)^2 - 8(4) + 25 = 9. Therefore y=9. Coordinates : (4,...
