First I would draw a Diagram of y=x² on the x and y plane, for x>0. Then label a generic point as (x,y), then noting that as y=x² we can then equate the sane point to (x, x^2...

Check to see if the number in front (coefficient) of either the x's or y's is the same. In this case both the y's have the same coefficient so we do not need to make them the same.We are going to add the ...

A stationary point is defined as a point on the function where the gradient is zero, i.e f'(x) = 0. To construct this equation we must differentiate the function, we would find f'...
