Differentiate y = (sin(x))^2 (find dy/dx)

This a relatively simple question which requires the use of the chain rule to solve. First we set u = sin(x) so we then have y = u 2 . Next we perform do differentiations, one on u as a function of x and the...

Solve these simultaneous equations: 2x+y-5=0 and x^2-y^2=3

To solve this problem, you need to: rearrange the first equation (1) to express y in terms of x to obtain equation (3). Then, substitute this new equation into the quadratic one (the second equation from the...

What is the integral of sin(3x) cos(5x)?

Using trig formulas we have sin(5x+3x)= sin(5x)cos(3x)+cos(5x)sin(3x) and sin(5x-3x)= sin(5x)cos(3x) - cos(5x)sin(3x). Hence, sin(5x+3x) - sin(5x-3x) = sin(8x)-sin(2x) = 2cos(5x)sin(3x). This implies that co...

solve 4^xe^(7x+5) = 21

ln((4^x)e^(7x+5)) = ln21; apply a natural log on both sides of the equation as an exponential containing e is involved ln4^x + ln(e^(7x+5)) = ln21; using logarithm rules you can seperate the single log on th...

How do you integrate y = 4x^3 - 5/x^2?

First we should look at the formula for integrating x n . The integral is (x n+1 / n+1) + C. Let's break down our equation into two parts. The integral of 4x 3 = 4(x 3+1 / 3+1) = 4(x 4 / 4) = x 4 The integra...
