Differentiate: 2(x^2+2)^3

This is a chain rule question. Unlike in ordinary differentiation we have more than just the single term 'x' with coefficient 1 raised to the power of something. e.g. x^3 Therefore, there is more steps. We c...

Sketch the graph of x^2+y^2-6x-4y=23

Firstly, to try and sketch this graph just going on the equation as it is above is a huge task for any maths student. The best way to approach this is to neaten it up with some algebra: -1: x^2+y^2-6x-4y can...

Integrate the function f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c over the interval [0,1], where a, b and c are constants.

Firstly remember that d/dx(x^n) = nx^(n-1). And so the antiderivative, or integral of x^n, i.e. \int(x^n) = x^(n+1)/(n+1) + C (where C is the integration constant). When integrating with limits, i.e. when we...

A ball is hit horizontally at a height of 1.2 m and travels a horizontal distance of 5.0 m before reaching the ground. The ball is at rest when hit. Calculate the initial horizontal velocity given to the ball when it was hit.

In order to find the velocity, we need to know the distance covered by the ball in a known length of time. We are given the distance, 5.0 m, therefore we need to compute the time of flight of the ball. This ...
