Just substitute one of the value of K found in 8.i) in the equation of fg(x)=x. Which was i believe 36/2-x +2k = x. you will end up with a quadratic equation and solve it then!

Thank you!Put values of k in f[g(x)]=x
then solve f[g(x)]-x=0
Put 5 or -7 in (x^2 + 2kx - 2x + 36 - 4k) and equate to 0.
x^2 + 8x + 16 =0 or x^2 - 16x + 64 =0
Roots come as -4 when k=5 and 8 when k=-7
Thank you!
Can you please tell me how to do number 8i) in oct paper 2008...I dont know how to find da gradient through differentiation?
So why is it that dx over dy is= 8 over x squared?Just differentiate the equation and put the value of x in it to get gradient.
y=5-8x^-1
dy/dx=8/x^2
since co-ordinate is (2,1) and x =2
put x = 2 in dy/dx
gradient = 8/2^2
gradient = 2
normal gradient will be found with m1 x m2 = -1
so normal gradient will be -1/2
So why is it that dx over dy is= 8 over x squared?
Thank you so so so muchNo.4
i) By resolving .. Fcos=12cos30 in x-axis direction(1)
Fsin+12sin30=10 in y-axis direction.(2)
Make Fsin the subject in the second equation .. Fsin=1o-12sin30=4
Do you know that Sin /cos = tan , right ? So to get rid of sin and cos in the equation ..we will divide equation 2 over equation 1 .. F will be cancelled from the equation and sin/cos will be tan ---> Tan=4/12cos30 ... Shift tan you willl find the angle = 21.1 .. and by putting this value in the fist or the second equation your F will be 11.13
ii) 12 is not here anymore . right ? so you have the force f to resolve :
So in x-axis direction : Fcos = 11.1cos21.1 (1)
in y-axis direction : Fsin-10 ---> 11.1sin21.1-10(2)
R = 1square +2square under square root .
and direction : tan (2)/(1)
Hope u understand incha'allah
Thank you!Basic Differentiation.
-8/x can be written as -8(x)^-1
Differentiating that will be .. -8(x)^-1-1 * -1
which becomes 8(x)^-2 which can also be written as 8/x^2
Like if y= 2x^n then dy/dx = 2x^n-1 * n = 2n(x^n-1)
working with powers while writing on a forum is difficult.
yupYou have maths as well?
For Q1, you just integrate the given equation:http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Mathematics (9709)/9709_w09_qp_12.pdf .. Questn 1, and Question 4 (I) :\
For part (ii) you are to find the speed it reaches ground.
The answer to part (i) is 7.5, I got that.
For part (ii), we use v^2 = u^2 + 2as. But u is taken as 0 instead of 5.2 and s is taken as 7.5 instead of -6.2.. why?
Assalamoalaikum Wr Wb!

!!For Q1, you just integrate the given equation:
3x^-1/2 - x (I shifted the root(x) to the numerator)
Integrating it gives,
y = 6x^1/2 - (x^2 / 2) + c
Because it passes through (4, 6), just replace x and y with 4 and 6 respectively. You'll get c as 2.. so the equation is y = 6x^1/2 - (x^2 / 2) + 2
