In this question, take 'log' to mean 'log base 5'. Solve the equation log(x^2-5)-log(x) = 2*log(2)

Note that you can not take a positive base log of a negative number.  log5(x2-5) - log5(x) = 2log5(2) => log5((x2-5)/x) = log5

Find dy/dx such that y=(e^x)(3x+1)^2.

We will solve this question with the knowledge that dy/dx = u.(dv/dx) + v.(du/dx), where y=u.v We have y=e^x(3x+1)^2. First, we want to find u & v. By splitting the function, we have that u=e^x and v=...

Show that 2tan(th) / (1+tan^2(th)) = sin(2th), where th = theta

We have 2tan(th) / (1 + tan^2(th)) = sin(2th)

We know that tan(A) = sin(A) / cos(A), and 1 + tan^2(A) = sec^2(A)

Therefore => (2sin(th) / cos(th)) / sec^2(th)

=> 2sin(th)*cos^2(...

Use logarithms to solve the equation 3^(2x+1) = 4^100

We have 3^(2x+1) = 4^100

=> log(3^(2x+1)) = log(4^100)

=> (2x+1)log(3) = 100log(4)
