How do I find the x-intercept or the y-intercept?

The x-intercepts are where the graph crosses the x-axis To find the x-intercepts of an equation --> substitute in y = 0 and solve for x The y-intercepts are where the graph crosses the y-axis To find the ...

write 2/(3+root(5)) in the form a + b*root(5), where a and b are rational numbers.

You would first multiply the expression by (3-root(5))/(3-root(5) - which equals 1 - to get (6-2root(5))/14 which then equals 3/7 - (1/7)*root(5) and you are done.

Given that y = 8x + 2x^-1, find the 2 values for x for which dy/dx = 0

First differentiate y with respect to x, which gives you dy/dx = 8 - 2x^-2. This needs to equal zero so equate to zero. 8-2x^-2 = 0. You can then bring the 2x^-2 to the other side giving 2x^-2=8. Dividing bo...

Differentiate y = 4exp(6x) + cos(x) + 6x

dy/dx = 24e 6x - sin(x) + 6
