Differentiate y = ln (3x + 2)

The equation for the derivative of the natural log is dy/dx = f'(x)/f(x) where f(x) = the contents of the natural log, in this case 3x+2. So, to get dy/dx we first need f'(x), the derivative of f(x). This...

Solve the simultaneous equations: y+4x+1=0 and y^2+5x^2+2x=0

y= -4x-1y2 = (-4x-1)2 = 16x2 +8x +1y2 +5x2 +2x = 0lets substitute what we found y2 equal to earlier, which gives us(16x2...

Solve int(ln(x)dx)

To solve this we must use integration by parts: int(udv) = uv - int(vdu) (1) Hence let u = ln(x), dv = dx => du=(1/x)dx, v=x, and now using (1) and substituting values we obtain int(ln(x)dx) = ln(x)x -...
