Find the stationary point of the graph of y = 2x + 5 + 27x^(-2)

y = 2x + 5 + 27x-2To find a stationary point, find the gradient function by differentiating with respect to x:y' = 2 -54x-3To find a stationary point, let the gradient function equal...

Find the co ordinates and nature of the turning points of the curve C withe equation, y=2x^3-5x^2-4x+2

Firstly, Differentiate the equation to find dy/dx. (dy/dx = 6x^2-10x-4)dy/dx shows the rate of change of the curve at a point, so at the stationary point dy/dx =0. So, put dy/dx = 0 and solve using factor...

Simplify 3log(x^2)+4log(y^3)

Using rules of logarithms: 3log(x^2)+4log(y^3)=log((x^2)^3)+log((y^3)^4) =log(x^6)+log(y^12) =log((x^6)(y^12)

How do I find the equation of the normal to the curve y=x^2 at the point (x1,y1)? Where x1=2 and y1=4 .

I would get the student to draw a diagram of the situation.. so draw the curve y=x^2, the tangent at (2,4) and then the normal. Then I would highlight to them that the equation we want is the equation of ...
