y = (x+4)(6x-7). By differentiating, find the x coordinate of the maximum of this equation.

y=(x+4)(6x-7)y=6x2+17x-28dy\dx = 12x + 17To find the x coordinate of the stationary points of y, let dy\dx=012x+17=0x=-17\12

The equation 3x^2 – 5x + 4 = 0 has roots P and Q, find a quadratic equation with the roots (P + 1/2Q) and (Q + 1/2P)


Can you explain induction and go through an example?


x^3 + 2x^2 - 9x - 18 = (x^2 - a^2)(x + b) where a,b are integers. Work out the three linear factors of x^3 + 2x^2 - 9x - 18. (Note: x^3 indicates x cubed and x^2 indicates x squared).


Given f(x)= 8 − x^2, solve f(3x) = -28
