Calculate (7-i*sqrt(6))*(13+i*sqrt(6))

We expand the parentheses to get to the equation: 713-13isqrt(6)+7isqrt(6)-iisqrt(36) which after some further calculations equals to: 91-6isqrt(6)+sqrt(36) [We got +sqrt of 36 because ii*=sqrt(-1)sqrt(-1)= -1, which results in -1(-sqrt(36))=sqrt(36)].Realizing that sqrt(36)=6 we get to the final result: 97-6isqrt(6)

Given that y = 16x + 1/x , find the two values of x for which dy/dx = 0


The straight line with equation y = 3x – 7 does not cross or touch the curve with equation y = 2px^2 – 6px + 4p, where p is a constant. Show that 4p^2 – 20p + 9 < 0.


If y = 2^x, solve the equation 8(4^x) + 9(2^x) + 1 = 0 in terms of y.


Does the equation x^2 + 2x + 5 = 0 have any real roots?
