    $a.$ \ $To assess if a function is "increasing" or "decreasing" then we need to assess the derivative. f(x) = \frac{x^3 + 8x}{8} f'(x) = \frac{1}{8}(3x^2 + 8) $The derivative is a positive value for all real x in its domain. What does this mean?$ $b.$ \ f'(x) = \frac{1}{8}(3x^2 +...

    Here is a diagram. http://imgur.com/b7sVG7V Solution (highlight): Notice that the height 'd' of the building that we are required to find is just equal to 45 - x. Where x is the distance you get when you extend the top of the 2nd building to the horizontal line at the top. x can be found using...

    Need help, URGENT maths question:

    I think you can justify it since the lower limit will be ln2 < lne = 1 And we know that the integral from ln2 to 1 of the original integrand has a finite value so we can just split it up to the integral from ln2 to 1 of f(x) + integral from 1 to infty of f(x) and apply the p-test.

    \cot (x+y) = \frac{\cot x \cot y - 1}{\cot x + \cot y} $i.e., prove $ \tan (x+y) = \frac{\cot x + \cot y}{\cot x \cot y - 1} \ ($Reciprocating both sides$) $LHS$ = \tan (x+y) = \frac{\tan x + \tan y}{1 - \tan x \tan y} \ ($By the tan expansion$) = \frac{\cot x + \cot y}{\cot x \cot y - 1}...

    My Uni friend from HK told me that HK doesn't really have these "A-level" exams anymore, and he told me that the difficulty has been toned down (in comparison to this paper to when he did them in 2014/15).

    Motion question

    The ball comes to a rest when the velocity equals zero. Letting x = 0 means you're finding the time where the ball started.
