A and B are on the line 3x+2y=6. At A x=0, what is y? At B y=0, what is x?

To find the y value at A, we know that x is equal to zero. This can be put into the equation of the line so that 3(0)+2y=6. Therefore 2y=6, and to get the y value, we divide each side by 2, giving us y=3 ...

How do you use the chain rule?


The chain rule is used to differentiate when there is a function within another function. For example y=(4x+6)0.5, y=(x+1)3The general formula for the chain rule is dy/dx= dy/d...

Find the turning value of the following function, stating whether the value is min or max, y = x^2 -6x + 5

First the student needs to differentiate the function to find dy/dx = 2x-6At dy/dx = 0, we know the curve is stationary. Now we can work out the x value such that x = 3Put x=3 back into the original equat...

solve 3 cos (2y )- 5 cos( y)+ 2 =0 where 0<y<360 degrees

cos(2y)= (cos(y))^2 - (sin(y))^2 identitynow consider identity (cos(y))^2+(sin(y))^2=1by rearranging this to (cos(y))^2 - 1 = - (sin(y))^2 we can now substitute it into our first identity to obtaincos(2y)...
