$\int \pi (1+tany)^2 dy$
$= \pi \int 1 + 2tany + tan^2y dy$
$= \pi \int 1 + 2tany + sec^2y - 1 dy$
$= \pi (-2lncosy + tany) + c$
$= \pi (tany - 2lncosy) + c$

there is only one variable x and the constant so just let x = 0

definite integrals wont work if you hav to integrate twice

Thanks for that, had slipped my mind after i couldn't find a question where i had actually used it..

Woops, Next Question.... Uhh let me just make one up..

$\int \frac{9x+7}{3x^2 + 3}dx$

May require some -------------------lateral thinking---------------------

(3/2)log[e][3x^2+3]+(7/3)tan^(-1)x+C

$\int \frac{9x}{3x^2+3} + \int \frac{7}{3x^2+3}$

$\frac{3}{2}\int \frac{2x}{x^2+1} + \frac{7}{3}\int \frac{1}{x^2+1}$

$\frac{3}{2}ln(x^2+1) + \frac{7}{3}tan^{-1}x + c$

thats a 4u q1 question.
but nonetheless its still adequate for 3u students

since no one posted a question heres a fun one:

Woah.... proving statement for n = k+1

$\textup{Prove for n = k+1}\\\\S_{k}\, +\: T_{k+1}\\\\\therefore \frac{(k+1)! - 1}{(k+1)!} \; \; \; + \; \; \; \frac{k+1}{(k+2)!}\\\\=\, \frac{(k+2)(k+1)! - (k+2)\: +\: (k+1)}{(k+2)!}\\\\=\frac{(k+2)! - 2 + 1}{(k+2)!}\\\\= \frac{(k+2)! - 1}{(k+2)!}\\\\= S_{k+1}$

Therefore, true for n=1 and true for n=k+1 when n=k, k integer, therefore true for n=2, n=3 and true for all positive integers n.

Much quicker

^ mine didnt take as long either lol.

Find the probability that of 5 cards chosen from a 52-card deck that 2 will be of the same suit.

i got the number of objects as n = 7. can someone confirm my answer.

Don't you reckon you guys should be doing a bit of English??? :S :S :S

Okay,
Ways to pick the loner=7
Ways to create 3 pairs= 6C2 * 4C2
Total ways=7 * 6C2 * 4C2 = 630 ways

Ways that not together = 630 - Ways together
Ways together = 5 * 4C2 = 30 ways
.`. Ways that not together = 600 - 30 = 600 ways.

(i) $7 * 6C2 * 4C2 = 630 ways$

(ii) $7 * 6C2 * 4C2 - 5 * 4C2 = 600 ways$
