    area integration

    Do you have any trouble drawing the graphs? Draw the graphs and then find the points of intersection, which occur at x=-1 and x=14: So just find the integral of (x+2)1/2, evaluated from 14 to -1 and then subtract the area between y = (x+6)/5, the x-axis and the lines x=-1 and x=14 to find the...

    area integration

    Yeah you could do that, but also make sure to label the graph as y=6x3. Shouldn't be any problem.

    area integration

    Actually, if you draw the graph, it should become readily apparent: First find the area between y=2x, x=2 and the x-axis, easy enough just integrate 2x from x=2 to x=0. Then just find the absolute integral from x=2 to x=0 of -x^2 with respect to x, which will give you the area of the part below...

    Woah, you serious tommykins? There are 8 topics in total (I think) lol. We've completed three topics so far.

    Can someone PLEASE HELp me draw absolute value graph!!

    Draw the graph as you would normally, then reflect anything below the x-axis in the x-axis. This is because y≥0.

    Intergrating Tirgometric Functions

    1. dy/dx = 3sec23x At x = pi/9; dy/dx = 3[1/cos2(pi/3)] = 12 2. dy/dx = -cos(pi-x), at x = pi/6; dy/dx = -cos(pi-pi/6) = &radic;3/2 &there4; Equation of tangent at (pi/6 , 1/2) is given by: y - 1/2 = &radic;3/2 (x - pi/6) <-- you can simplify that further if you wish :) 3. dy/dx = 6cos2x...

    Problem with simulataneous equations :(

    3. Let the number be represented by a+10b; a+10b=8(a+b) (1) a+10b-45=b+10a (2) From (1): 7a = 2b therefore a = 2/7 b From (2): 9a = 9b - 45 a = b - 5 b = a + 5 b = 2/7 b + 5 therefore 5/7 b = 5 => b = 7 and a = 2 Checking this: 72 is between 10 and 100, sum of its digits is 9, multiplied by 8...

    Need motivation

    The HSC isn't something to judge someone's intelligence by, just so you know. You could be mentally brilliant but couldn't really give a shit about the HSC just cause you don't need a super-high UAI for whatever you want to do in uni. Just making a point :D.

    Intergration Questions

    Best to use a diagram if you're unsure. Oh, and Aerath, you were doing it incorrectly, not sure what you were thinking, maybe you should wait until you do integration properly in school (unless you've already done it? But it doesn't seem like you have :rolleyes:)?. Avenger6 is correct in his...

    complex no. help

    3) z6 + 1 = (z2)3 + 13 Now using the identity for sum of cubes: z6 + 1 = (z2 + 1)(z4 + z2 + 1)

    Maths Question

    Re: Important news for all year 11 students 4[a-2(b-c)-{a-(b-2)}] = 4[a-2b+2c-(a-b+2)] = 4[-b+2c-2] = 8c - 8 - 4b

    Math Ext 1 problems, what to do?

    Yes, circle geometry, after a bit of practice, becomes probably one of the easiest topics of extension maths as it is such a confined topic. You have a set of rules to learn, and then you only have to apply them. Just stick with it, and it will become a LOT easier.
