Jill and four friends go camping together for 5 days. The friends share the cost of the trip equally. These costs are: £120 for fuel, £58 for food, £100 for equipment and £207 for activities. How much does Jill have to pay for her share of the costs?

The first thing we need to realise that the cost of the trip is going to be split between 5 people (Jill + 4 friends). As they are all sharing the cost of the trip equally, we need to find the total cost ...

how do I solve the equation x^2 + 7x + 11 = 0, to 3dp?


This is a quadratic equation and there are three ways to solve one. This question specifies that the answer should be left to three decimal places. This tells you that you can not factorise, as your...

Let f (x) = 5x and g(x) = x2 + 1 , for x ∈  . (a) Find f-1(x) . (b) Find ( f ° g) (7) .

a,y=5xfinding the inverse: x=5y - dividing by 5 (1/5)x=y f-1(x)=(1/5)x
b,5x(72+1)=250

Differentiate f = ln(x^2 + 1) / (x ^ 2 + 1).

We'll apply the quotient rule using "u = ln(x2 + 1)" and "v = x2 + 1". First we'll need to calculate u' and v'.Using normal differentiation rules, we can see &quo...

given that y = 1 when x = π, find y in terms of x for the differential equation, dy/dx = xycos(x)

y-1 dy = xcos(x) dx∫y-1dy = ∫xcos(x) dx ln(y) = ∫xcos(x) dx [using integration by parts to integrate the right hand side] therefore, ln(y) = xsin(x) - ∫sin(x) dxln(y) = xsin(x) + cos...
