Use the product rule to differentiate y=2xsinx

The product rule states that y=uv and dy/dx=(u)dv/dx + (v)du/dx. As the equation is in this form we can let u=2x and v=sinx. Therefore du/dx=2 and dv/dx=cosx. Substituting for u and v we get dy/dx=(2x)(cosx)...

Solve the simultaneous equations: 5x + 3y = 41 and 2x + 3y = 20 Do not use trial and error.

5x + 3y = 41 2) 2x + 3y = 20 Subtract equation 2) from equation 1) to cancel the y's (3y-3y = 0) . Next we subtract the x's (5x - 2x = 3x) and then finally we have 41 - 20 = 21. We now have that 3x = 21 ( re...
