Give the general solution of the second order ODE dy2/d2x - 4dy/dx + 3 = 0

Solving the ansatz equation x^2 - 4x + 3 = gives 2 equal roots where x = 3 and x = 1The general solution therefore is y = Ae^3x + Be^x where A and B are arbitrary constants

For f(x) = (3x+4)^(-2), find f'(x) and f''(x) and hence write down the Maclaurin series up to and including the term in x^2.


It is given that f(x) = 2sinhx+3coshx. Show that the curve y = f(x) has a stationary point at x =-½ ln(5) and find the value of y at this point. Solve the equation f(x) = 5, giving your answers exactly
