IBP and then the "constant" part cancels out to zero.


Any idea on how to do part (f)?

AQR is a straight line so what does tell you about AQ QR ?

Papers yes, worksheets no.
where is everyone up to in their maths revision past paper wise?

Done all standard past papers, about to move onto the Solomon ones and do extra worksheets on vectors and integration

is that for all the units, C3 C4 and m1

C3 and C4, yes. I do S2, and I've only just started papers on that module
Why can't I use the reverse chain rule on (x^2+3)^2 but I can with (x+3)^2 ?

Derivitive inside the bracket is a constant ie 1. Derivitive inside beacket of first one is 2x which you can't divide by using reverse chain rule.

The rule holds when your integral is of the form af(x)f(x)ndx\int a f'(x)f(x)^{n} \, \mathrm{d}x.

Man this isn't even A Level Mathematics ??
Hey guys, I'm really struggling with maths, I just sit there in class and in class I understand it but when I do it myself I really don't get it.
I don't know how and where to start my revision. Last year I didn't work hard enough and I got a D, however I'm retaking a few modules.

What is the best way for revising for maths? At this point shall I just do past papers and learn the content like that? Will that help me achieve at least a C this year?

Thank you in advance

Do one paper. Decide which topics you're not very confident on and go back over notes, online resources etc to increase your understanding. Do another paper. Repeat until your exam.

A is the point where the tangent meets the X axis

thank you!
Somebody check my working please, This question was posted way earlier, when I hadn't studied By parts.

Attempted it now: Would integrating ln^2(x) be expected in C4 though?



Also someone throw me a nice, By parts question. :smile:

Yep, that's fine. Now do

Unparseable latex formula:

\displaystyle [br]\begin{equation*}\int_0^{2\pi} e^x \cos mx \, \mathrm{d}x = \frac{\alpha}{\beta m^2 + \gamma}(\zeta e^{2\pi} - \mu) \end{equation*}



Where α,β,γ,ζ\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \zeta and μ\mu are constants to be determined.
