work out in parts / ratio firstly work out how much one pencil costs, 50p divide by 5 = 10p1 pencil = 10p therefore, 2 pencils = 10p x 2 = 20p

Firstly, recognize that 2^3 is 8, so y must be close to 8.It will be helpful to then write y^3 as y^3= 8 + 0.08We can then factorize out 8.y^3=8(1+0.01)If we try and take the cube root of this expression....

2X + 4Y (dy/dx) = 4 4Y (dy/dx) = 4 - 2X dy/dx = (4 - 2X) / 4Y
