Express '6cos(2x) +sin(x)' in terms of sin(x).

6cos(2x) +sin(x).Using the double angle formula for cosine (or otherwise), cos(2x) = cos(x)cos(x) - sin(x)sin(x) .cos(2x) = cos^2(x) - sin^2(x) .Hence, 6cos(2x) +sin(x) = 6(cos^2(x) - sin^2(x)) + sin(x). Now...

Find the x and y coordinates of the turning points of the curve 'y = x^3 - 3x^2 +4'. Identify each turning point as either a maximum or a minimum.

The first part of the problem is solved by differentiating once and equating this to zero: y = x^3 - 3x^2 +4 . dy/dx = 3x^2 - 6x . dy/dx = x(3x - 6) . At the turning points; x(3x - 6) = 0 (turning points occ...
