Only factors of 2 are 1 and 2, therefore solution will take form of (2x + a)(x + b) to get 2x² term. Only factors of 3 are 1 and 3 therefore a and b are either 1 or 3. Playing around and intuit...

First notice that no simplifications can be made to the problem without changing the form. We start by factorising the numerator. The highest power of x in this question is 2, therefore we know that it ha...

I would start by asking the student the different forms of integration we know (e.g. substitution, parts).I would then ask the student whether parts or substitution gives the easiest method.If the student...

To start, we need to know that the gradient of the curve at the stationary points is 0 and that when the second derivative is less than 0, there is a maximum and when the derivative is greater than 0, the...

When multiplied together the gradients of perpendicular lines should give the answer - 1So: x₁x₂ = -1x₁ = 2 x₂ = -1/2It crosses through the point (1,2)y = ax+ b...
