This question is asking us to complete the square. To find the value of a we must halve the coefficient of x. So, in this question: a = 4/2 = 2. To find the value of b we...

This question is asking us to work our way back and find the original number. We can refer to this number as 'x'. If we multiply x by 3 we get 3x. The next step is to subtract 5, so our equation now is 3x...

To factorise this equation we want to get 2 brackets. We are looking for 2 numbers which multiply to make -12 and add to make -1. So, let's see some factors of -12: -12 = (-1) x 12; (-2) x 6; (-3) x 4; (-...

First we use the product rule, so we multiply x by the derivative of (x+3)⁵. To find the derivative of (x+3)⁵ we use the chain rule. So we have 5(x+3)⁴. So the first part...
