The line AB has equation 3x + 5y = 7 (a. Find the gradient of AB)

This is an easy one as long as you remember the important equation y = mx + c. I can't express how important it is for you to learn that equation. Step one: find y. Do this by taking 3x away from both sides ...

Use integration by parts to find the integral of sin(x)*exp(x)

First, we choose u=sin(x),v'=exp(x). Using differentiation and integration of standard exponential and trigonometric functions => u'=cos(x),v=exp(x). From this we use the formula for integration by parts ...

Differentiate, y = 2x^3 + 2/x + 3

Differentiate by multiply by the power and then minus 1 from the power. Use the rule: y= ax^b -> dy/dx = abx^(b-1) dy/dx = 3 x 2x^(3-1) + -1 x 2x^(-1-1) + 0 dy/dx = 6x^2 - 2x^-2
