log3 (9y + b) – log3 (2y – b) = 2, Find y in terms of b.

Use laws of logarithms to simplify.Log3((9y+b)/(2y-b)) = 2(9y+b)/(2y-b) = 32(9y+b) = 9(2y-b)9y+b = 18y-9bCollect terms.9y = 10by = 10b/9

How to differentiate using the chain rule


In a science experiment a substance is decaying exponentially. Its mass, M grams, at time t minutes is given by M=300e^(-0.05t). Find the time taken for the mass to decrease to half of its original value.


A curve has an equation of y = 20x - x^2 - 2x^3, with one stationary point at P=-2. Find the other stationary point, find the d^2y/dx^2 to determine if point P is a maximum or minium.


I did all the past papers but I still only achieved a C grade, what am I doing wrong?
