Solve the simultaneous equation: y+4x+1=0 y^2+5x^2+2x=0

Rearrange the first equation to get y on its own:   y=-(1+4x) Substitute into the second equation:        (1+4x)(1+4x)+5x^2+2x=0     21x^2+10x+1=0 Substite into the quadratic formula to solve    (-b+/-(b^2-4ac)^0.5)/2a

Show, by first principles, that the differential of x^2 is 2x.


A curve has equation y = 6ln(x) + x^2 -8x + 3. Find the exact values of the stationary points.


Differentiate the function f(x) = 2x^3 + (cos(x))^2 + e^x


Given f(x) = (x^4 - 1) / (x^4 + 1), use the quotient rule to show that f'(x) = nx^3 / (x^4 + 1)^2 where n is an integer to be determined.
