There are 420 balls in a ball pool. There is a combination of violet, blue, yellow and green balls. 2/7 are violet, 35% are blue and the ratio of yellow to green is 4:5. How many of each colour ball is there in the ball pool?

Together, the total number of balls is 420. 2/7 of the total 420 balls are violet. Therefore the number of violet balls can be calculated by the equation 2/7 x 420/1 = 840/7=120. There are 120 vio...

Find the coordinates of the turning points of the curve y = 4/3 x^3 + 3x^2-4x+1

First differentiating by the rule that xn differentiates to nxn-1 we have that dy/dx = 4x2+6x-4.
At the turning points of a curve the differential is equal to 0 so w...

Solve the linear simultaneous equations: 3x + 5y = 45, 2x - 9y = -7

x = 10, y = 3. From the second equation, we have x = (9y - 7)/2. Substituting this expression for x into the first equation gives 3(9y - 7)/2 + 5y = 45. 3(9y - 7) + 10y = 90. 27y - 21 + 10y = 90. 37y = 11...

Find the minimum and maximum points of the graph y = x^3 - 4x^2 + 4x +3 in the range 0<=x <= 5.

First, use the standard method of setting the derivative to be equal to 0 to find the stationary points. This yields the equation 3x^2 - 8x + 4 = 0 and so the stationary points are at x = 2/3 and 2 respec...
