The gradient of the curve at A is equal to the gradient of the curve at B. Given that point A has x coordinate 3, find the x coordinate of point B.

We are told f(x) = (2x-5)^2 (x+3).In part b) we are asked to show that f'(x) = 12x^2 -16x -35, so for part (c) we shall assume this definition for f'(x). We are told that the x coordinate for A is 3. Call...

If a ball is dropped from 6m above the ground, how long does it take to hit the floor and what is its speed at impact (assuming air resistance is negligible)?

Distance, s = 6m ; initial speed, u = 0 m/s ; final speed, v = v m/s ; acceleration, a = 9.8 m/s (g) ; time, t = t sTime:s = ut + 0.5at² , 6 = 0 + (0.5 x 9.8)t² , 6 = 4.9t²

Find the x value of the stationary points of the graph y = x^2e^x

The problem here can be solved quite easily by thinking about the graph. A stationary point occurs on a graph when it becomes 'flat'. You can think of this visually as the top of a hill or the bottom of a...
