Why is ꭍ2x=x^2+C?

Differentiating x2 gives dx2/dx=2x. Differentiating a constant C gives 0. d( x2 +C)/dx=dx2/dx+dC/dx=2x+0=2x. Since integration is the inverse function of differentiation, integrating 2x gives x2+C.

integrate x^2 + 3x + 4


How do I find the maximum/minimum of a function?


p(x)=2x^3 + 7x^2 + 2x - 3. (a) Use the factor theorem to prove that x + 3 is a factor of p(x). (b) Simplify the expression (2x^3 + 7x^2 + 2x - 3)/(4x^2-1), x!= +- 0.5


x = 2t + 5, y = 3 + 4/t. a) Find dy/dx at (9.5) and b) find y in terms of x.
