f(x)=ln(x). Find the area underneath the curve f(x) between 1 and 2.

We cannot dirrectly intergrate ln(x), so instead we intergrate 1 ln(x) using intergration by parts. The formula for intergration by parts is: ∫ (u dv/dx) dx = uv − ∫ v du/dx dx . We let u=ln(x) so that du/dx...

Solve 29cosh x – 3cosh 2x = 38 for x, giving answers in terms of natural logarithms

Firstly, we need the equation to be in terms of one cosh argument if possible, which can be done by the identity cosh 2x = 2cosh 2 x - 1. Upon substitution and simplification we get 6cosh 2 x - 29cosh x + 35...
