Find where the curve 2x^2 + xy + y^2 = 14 has stationary points

d/dx (xy) = x dy/dx + y 

d/dx (y^2) = 2y dy/dx [This is from the chain rule]

So, d/dx (2x^2 + xy + y^2 = 14) 

=> 4x + x dy/dx + y + 2y dy/dx = 0

set dy/dx = 0 as stationary ...

Remove the brackets: −{−2[x−3(y−4)]−5(z+6)}

First Step: - {-2[x-3y+12]-5z-30} Second Step: - {-2x+6y-24-5z-30} Third Step (Order is x,y, then z) : - {-2x+6y-5z-54} Final Step: 2x-6y+5z+30

Using complex numbers, derive the trigonometric identities for cos(2θ) and sin(2θ).

When dealing with complex numbers and trigonometric functions, always turn to DeMoivre's Theorem that states [cos(θ)+isin(θ)]n = [cos(nθ)+isin(nθ)]. If we set n=2, the we see a combina...

Integrate (x+3)^(1/2) .dx

[whiteboard feature does not seam to be working here] 

Here we need to make a U sibstitution. So we take (x+3) and make this equal U so we now have the integral of u^1/2   . dx

In order to s...

How do I solve simultaenous equations? e.g. 2x -5y =11 and 3x+2y=7

Step 1: Multiply both equations together so that the multiples of one of the unknown terms are the same or the negative of that number. This will allow you to add/subtract the two equations to eliminate o...
