    Integration by substitution

    from a few lines in: \int \frac{sin^2x - cos^2x}{sin^3xcosx}dx\\ \int \frac{1}{sinxcosx} - \frac{cosx}{sin^3x}dx\\ \int \frac{sin^2 + cos^2x}{sinxcosx} - cosxsin^{-3}x dx\\ \int \frac{sinx}{cosx} + \frac{cosx}{sinx} - cosxsin^{-3}x{sinx}dx\\ = -ln|cosx| + ln|sinx| + \frac{1}{2}sin^{-2}x\\ =...

    telling if an acid can donate a proton based on pH and concentration?

    calculate the pH for each concentration as if the acid were strong and monoprotic. the one with a more acidic pH than what you calculated must be able to donate more than one

    Absolute killer prob question

    but you still have the same arrangement are you disagreeing with the answer of 12!/(5!*2!) ?

    Absolute killer prob question

    order 12 letters = 12! but the letters from koala have to be kept in a specific order, so divide by 5! then divide by 2! due to two e's = 12!/5!2!

    Highest UAI '09

    definitely an overestimate for english. probably a bit high for science as well of course, it's too early to tell just yet. depends how much work i end up putting in

    Reduction question

    use log law and the t identities also, the integral of secx can be made into a standard integral if you let u=secx

    HELP! WHAT IS e????

    the derivative of ex is ex any other base, a, and you get a constant, ln[a], out the front, so using base e allows us to more easily differentiate and integrate

    Hi I'm kooltrainer - here is a simple engineering q i wan u engineers to solve

    finding I about centre; \int r^2 dm\\ dm = 2\pi \rho r.dr\\ 2\pi \rho\int_{a}^{b}r^3 dr\\ \pi \rho(b^4 - a^4)/2 the I about just the x-axis will just be half of this. how come it's perfectly fine to ask for help and how to answer a question in the hsc forums, but not in the uni ones..? (yeah...

    Some help with inverse function thx ~~

    the derivative of the function is 3x2 - 4x + 2 = 3(x - 2/3)2 + 2/3 > 0 for all x graph is monotonic increasing .'. an inverse exists to sketch just find intercepts, point of inflexion etc. edit: question was already answered in other thread

    Integration Question

    sin3x = sinx(1-cos2x) ..
  17. L

    Trig identity

    sums to products just means you break sin5a and sin3a into sin(4a + a) and sin(4a - a) you could also use sin8Asin2A = sin(5a + 3a)sin(5a - 3a)

    very easy projectile question

    it's squared. the angle for maximum height would be straight up, ie. 90' it just comes from v2 - u2 = 2as (setting v=0)
