Use implicit differentiation to find dy/dx of a curve with equation x^3 + yx^2 = y^2 + 1.

Begin by differentiating each term w.r.t x: d/dx(x^3) + d/dx(yx^2) = d/dx(y^2) + d/dx(1). the terms x^3 and 1 are simple enough to start of with: d/dx(x^3) = 3x^2 and d/dx(1) = 0. Next use the chain rule ...

Sketch the line y=x^2-4x+3. Be sure to clearly show all the points where the line crosses the coordinate axis and the stationary points

From the equation we can see the the line in a positive quadratic graph. In order to find the points where the line crosses the x axis we must let y=0 and solve for x. We can then use either inspection, c...

Integrate (x^2+4x+13)/((x+2)^2)(x-1) dx by using partial fractions

Express (x2+4x+13) / (x+2)2(x-1) as partial fractions. (x2+4x+13) / (x+2)2(x-1) = a/(x+2) +b/(x+2)2 +c/(x-1) where a, b and c are constants to be fou...

Express asin(x) + bcos(x) in the form Rsin(x+c), where c is a non-zero constant.

The trick to solving this is to use the trig identity sin(a+b) = sin(a)cos(b) + sin(b)cos(a) From the identity above, we can write rewrite Rsin(x+c) as follows: Rsin(x+c)...
