Yeah but then how come it doesn't work with chain rule... :/
See if you substitute x=16, the numerator becomes 0, so the whole thing just gives 0 .... thats wrong... have i integrated wrong?

U need to first square the equation given
if y=4x +2
so it becomes y^2=16x^2+16x+4
Now you'll integrate it

Good. Well most of the P1's are quite same so im bit bored doing them
Good Luck for Chem and Maths!

Yeah thats the safe way of doing it... but then when you don't expand the bracket it doesn't work... so i was just wondering why it doesn't work...

Hey guys, can anyone help me out with Q3 (i)? Thank you!

9x^2 - 12x + 5
9(x^2 - 12/9(x) + 5/9)
9[(x - 2/3)^2 + 1/9)
9(x - 2/3)^2 + 1
This can be also written as (3x - 2)^2 + 1

Good luck guys

Guys ..

Yes. It is allowed. It only does numerical integration and differentiation, therefore it is allowed, it doesn't do symbolic integration/differentiation

Practice this paper : http://themathelp.com/pdf/a level p1.pdf
Just dont look at answers, some are wrong and answers to Q7 is missing.
Just where you feel your answer is not matching the answer, post it here. We'll discuss together.

In paper 3 how do we obtain the modulus and argument?

How are we going to do Q2 a part

So long, lemme remember ur name, asma ryt?
According to me a = 2 and b = 25
This is how it goes :¬
b - (x - 1)^2
b - (x^2 - 2x + 1)
b - x^2 + 2x - 1
-x^2 + 2x + (b - 1)
We know that c(ax^2 + bx + c) = 24
So b - 1 = 24 ; b 25.
25 - (x - 1)^2
Opening this, we get 24 + 2x - x^2. so a = 2.

Yep thanks can you do Q4 a part too :'(
