We need to get the quadratic expression into the form (x + a)(x + b). If we expand this expression using FOIL, we see that the resulting expression is x² + (a+b)x + ab. We can now find a and b ...

Increase the powers of all variables by one and then divide them by this number. For example, given 3x^3 + 5x^-0.5 - 8 , this would give 3/4x^4 + 10x^0.5 - 8x

The power of a number indicates how many times that number must be multiplied by itself. If the power is a negative, this means that the number (or the base) is a fraction, with the base as a denominator....

First of all key elements required for this question is the knowledge or retrival of these equations: tan² + 1 =sec² A   tan(A-B) = (tanA-tanB)/(1+tanAtanB) so for the first equation...

To answer this we will need to use the product rule which is as follows: For y=uv, dy/dx=u'v+uv' where u' is the derivative of u and v' is the derivative...
