Solve the simultaneous equations x + y = 3 and x^2 + y^2 = 5

Find an expression for y
y = 3 - x
sub this into the second equation
x^2 + (3 - x)^2 = 5
then expand the brackets
x^2 + x^2 - 6x + 9 = 5
simplify
2(x^2 - 3x + 2) = 0<...

y = 2x^3 + 15x^2 + 24x + 10 Find the stationary points on this curve and determine their nature

First differentiate the function to obtain
dy/dx = 6x^2 + 30x + 24
Then set this equal to 0 and solve to find the x values of the stationary points
6x^2 + 30x + 24 = 0
6(x^2 + 5x + 4) ...
