There are 12 counters in a bag. There is an equal number of red counters, yellow counters and blue counters in the bag. There are no other counters in the bag. 3 counters are taken from the bag. Work out the probability of taking 3 red counters.

If there are 12 counters in a bag,each with colour either red, yellow or blue, we can say that the number of red counters, blue counters and yellow counters must add up to 12.R + B + Y = 12 ( R = No. of R...

For y=x/(x+4)^0.5, solve dy/dx

As x is present as both numerator and denominator (top & bottom), we're going to use the quotient rule to solve this. The quotient rule is as follows:For y=f(x)/g(x), dy/dx=(f'(x).g(x)-f(x).g'(x)...

Find the equation of the line tangential to the function f(x) = x^2+ 1/ (x+3) + 1/(x^4) at x =2

Differentiate the function to find the gradient at any point: df/dx = 2x - 1/(x+3)^2 - 4/(x^5)insert the value of 2 into f(x) and df/dx --> df/dx = 3.835, f(2) = 4.2625create the equation of the line b...
