f(x) is defined by f(x) = 3*x^3 + 2*x^2 - 7*x + 2. Find f(1).

f(1) = 3 1^3 + 2 1^2 - 7*1 + 2 = 3 + 2 - 7 + 2 = 0

A curve has equation y = 20x - x^2 - 2x^3 . The curve has a stationary point at the point M where x = −2. Find the x- coordinate of the other stationary point of the curve

A stationary point on a curve is when the differential of the equation of the curve = 0. In other words when dy/dx = 0Take the equation in the question: y = 20x - x 2 - 2x 3 A simple rule to find the differe...
