f(x) = x^3 + 3x^2 + 5. Find f''(x)

f''(x) means that we need to differentiate the function f(x) twice (f'(x) would mean we need to do it once). Differentiation means we multiply the coefficient by the power, and subtract one from the power. So: f'(x) = 3x^2 + 6x f''(x) = 6x + 6

By using the substitution, x = 2sin(y) find the exact value of integral sqrt(1/3(4-x^2)) dx with limits 0 and 1.


The function f (x) is defined by f (x) = (1-x)/(1+x), x not equal to -1. Show that f(f (x)) = x. Hence write down f ^-1 (x).


A curve is defined by the parametric equations x=t^2/2 +1, y=4/t -1. Find the gradient of the curve when t =2.
