A quarter circle has a radius of 6 cm. Calculate the area of the quarter circle.

It is very easy to calculate the area of the whole circle and divide it by 4.The area of the whole circle can be calculated using the formula A = pir2, where r is the radius of the circle a...

Find the area of the rectangle, in cm, with width 4x and length (y+5). Then calculate the area for x = 7 and y = 8.

To start, we need to state that the area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width. Therefore, the area will be 4x multiplied by (y+5). Now to do this we need to expand the bracket. To expand t...

There are 12 counters in a bag. There is an equal number of red counters, yellow counters and blue counters in the bag. There are no other counters in the bag. 3 counters are taken from the bag. Work out the probability of taking 3 red counters.

If there are 12 counters in a bag,each with colour either red, yellow or blue, we can say that the number of red counters, blue counters and yellow counters must add up to 12.R + B + Y = 12 ( R = No. of R...

For y=x/(x+4)^0.5, solve dy/dx

As x is present as both numerator and denominator (top & bottom), we're going to use the quotient rule to solve this. The quotient rule is as follows:For y=f(x)/g(x), dy/dx=(f'(x).g(x)-f(x).g'(x)...

Find the equation of the line tangential to the function f(x) = x^2+ 1/ (x+3) + 1/(x^4) at x =2

Differentiate the function to find the gradient at any point: df/dx = 2x - 1/(x+3)^2 - 4/(x^5)insert the value of 2 into f(x) and df/dx --> df/dx = 3.835, f(2) = 4.2625create the equation of the line b...
