To do the product rule you must have two functions multiplied together. Here you must make one function be u and the other be v. The formula from this is uv’+vu’ where v’ and u’ are the differentials of t...

How do we know which method of differentiation to use in this example?
Well in ‘xos(x)’, we have 2 different functions: ‘x’ and ‘cos(x)’. Therefore, we must differentiate using the p...

To start off we should list what we have and what we want to find. The initial velocity u= 18 m/s (taking upwards to be the positive direction). Acceleration a= - 9.8 m/s² (negative since gravi...

(a) The curve is defined by y=(2x-3)^5. To find x=w when y=-32, we must substitute these values into the equation C and re-arrange to find w. -32=(2w-3)^5. First we must remove the power of 5 by doing pow...

This is a standard question that may be found in a C4 mathematics paper. Students should use knowledge of the volume of revolution formula V = piint_{a}^{b} y²dx to find the expression V =...
