∫ log(x) dx

Using "Integration by parts" or "reverse chain rule" .
Recall formula for intergration by parts: "∫f'(x) g(x) dx = f(x)g(x) - ∫f(x)g'(x)dx"
Then set f'(x) = 1, g(x)...

Differentiate f(x) = 2xlnx.

Use the chain rule: f'(x) = v(du/dx) +u(dv/dx).

Let u = 2x, du/dx = 2, v = lnx, dv/dx = 1/x

Using this information: f'(x) = 2lnx + 2x/x

This simplifies to f'(x...

A simple circuit contains a battery rated at 12V, connected in series to a filament lamp with a resistance of 3 ohms. What current flows through the filament lamp?

V=IR, where V is voltage (volts), I is current (amps) and R is resistance (ohms). Since V and R are known, I needs to be found. Rearranging the equation gives: I=V/R. Inputting the value...
