rationalise the denominator (remove the surds) by multiplying by a fraction = 1, known as the rationalising factor = (24 - √ 300)/(4√ 3 - 5) * (4√ 3 + 5)/(4√ 3 + 5) = (24 - √ 300)(4√ 3 + 5)/(48 - 25) = (2...

x = 6 + y
2(6+y) + y = 18
12+2y+y = 18
3y = 18-12
3y=6
y = 6/3 = 2. So y = 2 if y = 2 then x is = ?
x - y = 6 so, x-2 = 6
so x is 6+ 2 = 8
x = 8 and y = 2<...

Here, we use integration by parts. We must imagine ln(x) as a product of 1 and ln(x). We usually take the function of x to be our dv/dx, however, in the case of ln(x), we take that to be u (it is a specia...
