Let z=x+yi such that 16=5z - 3z*, What is z?

z* is the complex conjugate of z therefore z* = x - yi. So 16 + 32i = 5(x + yi)-3(x - yi), real: 16 = 5x - 3x => 16=2x => x=8, imaginary: 32 = 5y + 3y => 32 = 8y => y=4, therefore z = 8 + 4i.

Express 5cosx - 3sinx in the form Rcos(x+a).

using integration by parts evaluate the integral of xsinx between x=0 and x =pi/2

Given y=x^2(1+4x)^0.5, show that dy/dx=2x(5x+1)/((1+4x)^0.5)

A circle has equation: (x - 2)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 16. It intersects the y-axis (y > 0) at point P and the x-axis (x < 0) at point Q. Find the equation of the line connecting P and Q and of the line perpendicular to PQ passing through the circle's centre.
