Solve the differential equation dy/dx = y/x(x + 1) , given that when x = 1, y = 1. Your answer should express y explicitly in terms of x.

Rearrange differential equation to get 1/x(x+1) dx = 1/y dy. Separate x side into partial fractions where 1/x(x+1) = 1/x - 1/(x+1). Integrate each side. Resulting equation involves natural logs. Substitut...

The expansion of (1+x)^4 is 1 + 4x +nx^2 + 4x^3 + x^4. Find the value of n. Hence Find the integral of (1+√y)^4 between the values 1 and 0 (one top, zero bottom).

Using Binomial expansion or Pascal's triangle, expand (1+x)^4 to get 1+4x+6x^2+4x^3+x^4. Then, by substituting √y for x, get 1 + 4y^1/2 + 6y +4y^3/2 +y^2. Then, using the rules of integration, the expansi...
