Use Simpson's rule with 5 ordinates (4 strips) to find an approximation to "integral between 1 and 3 of" 1/sqrt(1+x^3) dx giving your answer to three significant figures.

Just as a note before I start, some of the symbols I use here will be horribly confused, this won't be an issue with a whiteboard but doing maths in a text editor is not great so I've had to make do.

Find the turning points and their nature of the graph y = x^3/3 - 7x^2/2 + 12x + 4

Answer = (3,17.5) maximum (4,17.33) minimum

First differentiate y = x^3/3 - 7x^2/2 + 12x + 4 to find dy/dx. Now, at turning points dy/dx = 0 and factorise to find x when dy/dx = 0. Put x back into ...

Integrate (2x)(e^x)dx

Solve via Integration by parts:

let u=2x and dv/dx=ex

the function that is u and the one that is dv/dx is given by LATHE (easier to explain on whiteboard)

make the table: u...

Intergrate 15x^2 + 7

Using the intergarting rules, you would add a power then divide that new number to the coefficent so you would get 5x^3 and just add one x to the 7 and dont forget the c. So the end answer would be 5x^3 +...

Given that log_{x} (7y+1) - log_{x} (2y) =1 x>4, 0<y<1 , express y in terms of x.

log_{x} (7y+1) - log{x} (2y) =1 --> log_{x} [(7y+1)/2y]=1 (y =/= 0, Rules of logarithms i.e. difference of logarithms) --> x = [(7y+1)/2y] (x>0, Rules of logarithms i.e. log_{x} x = 1) --> 2yx...
