Find dy/dx of y=x^2 + 2x+1

We differentiate each term individually with respect to x. the way we differentiate powers of x is: x^n goes to nx^(n-1). So x^2 would become 2x, 2x would be just 2 as x^0 is 1 and a constant would just d...

The equation of the line L1 is y = 3x – 2 . The equation of the line L2 is 3y – 9x + 5 = 0 Show that these two lines are parallel.

In order for two lines to be parallel, they need to have the same gradient (m). The gradient (m) is the coefficient of x in the line equation y=mx+c. Therefore, the gradient of L1 is 3 since 3 is the coef...
