Solve the following equations showing your method clearly. 3(2x + 9) − 7x = 4(x + 3)

3(2x + 9) − 7x = 4(x + 3)so 6x + 27 -7x = 4x + 12so 27 - 12 = 5xso 15 = 5xso x=5taken from The Haberdashers' Aske's Boys’ SchoolElstree, Herts 13+ Entrance Examination 2016

a) Express 4(cosec^2(2x)) - (cosec^2(x)) in terms of sin(x) and cos (x) and hence b) show that 4(cosec^2(2x)) - (cosec^2(x)) = sec^2(x)

A) 4(cosec²(2x)) - (cosec²(x)) = 4/(sin²(2x)) - 1/(sin²(x)) = 4/[(2 sin(x) cos(x))²] - 1/(sin²(x)) B) 4/[(2 sin(x) cos(x))²] - ...

A curve has equation y = f(x) and passes through the point (4, 22). Given that f'(x) = 3x^2 - 3x^(1/2) - 7, use integration to find f(x), giving each term in its simplest form

As we are given the derivative of f(x), we first need to integrate this derivative to obtain the function, f(x). Using the standard integration formula, ∫ x^n dx = (1/n+1)(x^(n+1)) +c, integrate each term...
