A curve is given by the equation y=x^3-11x^2+28x; find the coordinates of the points where the curve touches the x-axis.

Since the equation has a cubic term, we can expect the curve to have certain properties: it should have three points where the graph touches the x-axis, two turning points, of which one should be a minimu...

Solve D/dx (ln ( 1/cos(x) + tan (x) )

Solve D/dx (ln ( 1/cos(x) + tan (x) ) As always, we approach with a substitution method that we would normally use for differentiating ln (x). So, we try differentiate ln (t) with t= 1/cos(x) + tan(x)So w...

By plotting appropriate graphs, find x to the nearest integer if x^2+3=2-4x.

Plot the graphs y=x^2+3 and y=2-4x. The solution(s) are the point(s) of intersection. The graphs can be plotted by making a table of values; this is the best method for the quadratic curve. The straight l...
