A curve is defined by the parametric equations; x=(t-1)^3, y=3t-8/(t^2), t~=0. Find dy/dx in terms of t.

dy/dx=(dy/dt)*(dt/dx); dy/dt=3+16t -3 ; dx/dt=3(t-1) 2 ; dt/dx=1/3(t-1) 2 ; dy/dx=(3+16t -3 )/3(t-1) 2

Solve the following equation: x^(3) - 6x^(2) + 11x - 6 = 0

x 3 - 6x 2 + 11x - 6 = 0 Let (x-a)(x-b)(x-c) = x 3 - 6x 2 + 11x - 6=> abc = -6 and a + b + c = -6 From abc=-6, find the possibilities of their values: (1,2,-3), (1,-2,3), (-1,2,3), (-1,-2,-3), (1,1,-6), (...

How would I differentiate y = 3xy + 2x^2 + x^2y^2 ?

Since this problem contains both xs and ys on the right hand side, we need to use implicit differentiation. This is where we use the chain rule to differentiate with regards to x the terms which contain ys. ...

The equation of the line L1 is: y = 5x-4. The equation for line L2 is 2y-10x+16 = 0. Show that these two lines are parallel.

L1: y=5x-4L2: 2y-10x+16=0. Rearranged: 2y=10x-16, y=5x-8 The coefficient of x is the same in both equations when expressed in standard format (5), therefore the lines are parallel. Here is how I would talk a...
