Re: Maths help available here!!! Stuck somewhere?? Ask here!

Assalamoalaikum!!

Sure..anytime! :)
Im having problem in W12/13 Q6a ..... my answer for that part is 5pi/3 where as marking scheme says 4pi/3.
kindly help and inbox me the procedure. Thnak u

It's neither of those two. The answer for the question would be -π/3 ...

f(x)=x/2 + π/6
g(x)=Cos(x)
g(f(x)) = Cos((x/2+π/6))
Cos((x/2+π/6)) = 1
x/2+π/6= Cos^-1(1) (Cos Inverse of 1 = 0)
x/2+π/6=0
x/2=-π/6
x=-2π/6
x=-π/3

The working done here is perfect. There is an error in the marking scheme. I always check my answers against the Examiner's Report.

Q.5(a) let x be 2sina

where x= 2sin a

dx/da = 2 cos a

dx= 2 cos a da
(2sin a)^2 /√ (4- (2sin a) ^2) x dx
4sin^2 a / √((4)(1-sin^2 a) x dx
4sin^2 a / √(4)(cos ^2 a) x dx
4 sin ^2 a / 2cos a x 2cos a da
4 sin^2 a = proved
now for the limits... the function is x= 2sin a
if x=1 then sina = 1/2 and a = sin inverse of 0.5 which is π/6
if x=0 then 2sina =0 and sin inverse of 0 is 0.

sin
Q.5 (b
∫4sin ^2 a
here we wud convert sin ^2 a into the formula= (1-cos2a)/2
∫4/2 (1-cos2a)
∫2(1-cos2a)
∫ 2 -2cos 2a

2a- sin 2a apply limitsnow

Hahah Im sorryy :p
The thing is i wasted my whole year and i literally studied p3 and m1 in like 20 days.. khud andaza laga lo agay kaise atay hngay.. :p
That is why i face alot of problems in papers initially. I hope it gets better :/

did u understand the question that i solved for u?
im gud at maths on a paper but it takes ten thousand years for me to type this stuff.i will solve other qsas soon as possible

haha so true.. same with me.. doing maths on paper is way easier than typing the solution out...

Can somebody explain 2 (ii)?
n = 15
Σx = 1572

Σ(x - 104.8)^2 = Σx^2 - (2)(104.8)Σx + Σ(104.8)^2 = Σx^2 - (2)(104.8)(1572) + (15)(104.8^2) --- i

Σ(x - 100)^2 = 499.2
Expanding LHS:
Σx^2 - 2(100)Σx + Σ(100^2) = 499.2
Σx^2 - (2)(100)(1572) + 150000 = 499.2
Σx^2 = 164899.2 --- ii

Put (ii) in (i):
Σ(x - 104.8)^2 = 153.6

and 9 (i)
Sorry for not posting link ....but xtremepapers isnt working good.

I'm guessing this is for the P3 paper.

9i) y = e^(-x/2) √(1+2x)
dy/dx = -1/2 e^(-x/2) * √(1+2x) + 1/2* 2 * (1+2x)^(-1/2) * e^(-x/2)
dy/dx = [-e^(-x/2) * √(1+2x)]/2 + e^(-x/2)/ √(1+2x)

For M, dy/dx = 0
[-e^(-x/2) * √(1+2x)]/2 + e^(-x/2)/ √(1+2x) = 0
Take LCM
[-e^(-x/2) * √(1+2x)* √(1+2x) + e^(-x/2) *2] / 2√(1+2x) =0
cross multiply, so the denominator becomes 0
-e^(-x/2) * (1+2x) +2e^(-x/2) = 0
take -e^(-x/2) common-
-e^(-x/2) [(1+2x) -2] =0
so,
-e^(-x/2) = 0 (NA) or -(1+2x) -1 = 0
1+2x -2 = 0
2x= 1
x =1/2

Thank you very much :D but there's this thinngy confusing me that inverse of cos 1 is 0 as well as 2pi so when put equal to 2 pi the answer turns out to be 5pi/3 as well
