Prove by mathematical induction that, for all non-negative integers n, 11^(2n) + 25^n + 22 is divisible by 24

The procedure of mathematical induction is as following:

Firstly prove the base case is true i.e. when n=1, the statement is true.

Then assume for some integer n=k the state...

How do you calculate the derivative of cos inverse x?

When differentiating cos inverse x, the typical method is to make y equal to cos inverse x.By taking cos of both sides: x = cosy.You can then differentiate with respect to y, obtaining that: (dx/dy) = - s...

Convert the general complex number z=x+iy to modulus-argument form.

Modulus-argument form implies that we should express z in terms of its straight line distance from the origin and the angle this straight line would make with the x axis. This is expressed as z = r e

The cubic equation 27(z^3) + k(z^2) + 4 = 0 has roots α, β and γ. In the case where β=γ, find the roots of the equation and determine the value of k

This question was worth 8 marks in a 2015 FP2 paper. The first part of this question is tricky, but once we have found the roots it will be easy to plug them in to get the value of k:

Whe...
