Differentiate 2cos(x)sin(x) with respect to x

To solve this differential, firstly note that 2cos(x)sin(x) = sin(2x) (by the Double-Angle Sine Identity), this makes computing the differential a lot easier. To differentiate sin(2x) we need to use the c...

Which of the following lines is not perpendicular to y=2x+1? (A) y+1/2x=6 (B) 2y=4-x (C) 2x+y=4 (D) y=-1/2(7+x)

First of all, we need to figure out how to tell whether 2 lines are perpendicular. For any equation written in the form 'y=mx+c', the important bit of information we need to answer this question is the va...

If two linear equations, y = x + 4 and y = 2x + c, intersect at x = 1, find c.

Draw the two equations, indicating the point of intersections (whiteboard).If the lines intersect at x=1, then at that point the y values of each equation are equivalent. Therefore, x+ 4 = 2x + c.Inputtin...
