A curve has equation: y = x^3 - 3x^2 + 5. Show that the curve has a minimum point when x = 2.

A minimum point will have a gradient of 0 (although so will a maximum point or a point of inflection). dy/dx = 3x 2 -6x. We can substitute x = 2 into this equation to give 0 (alternatively solve 3x 2 -6x = 0...

Given y=arctan(3e^2x). Show dy/dx= 3/(5cosh(2x) + 4sinh(2x))

As we cannot immediately differentiate inverse tan we take tan of both sides giving us tan(y)=3e 2x. We then differentiate with respect to x, however this must be done using implicit differentiation on the l...
