1 (i) Differentiate x2ln3xwith respect to x. [2] dydx=x233x⎛⎝⎜⎞⎠⎟+ln3x(2x)=x+2xln3x (ii) Hence find xln3x∫dx. [3] ∫x+2xln3xdx=x2ln3x+C∫xdx+∫2xln3xdx=x2ln3x+C∫2xln3xdx=x2ln3x−x22+C∫xln3xdx=12x2ln3x−x24+D – apply product rule – apply anti-differentiation – separating terms to integrate and integration of x
2 Express x3+1x2+1()x−2()in partial fractions. [5] x3+1x3−2x2+x−2=1+2x2−x+3(x2+1)(x−2) Let 2x2−x+3(x2+1)(x−2)=Ax+Bx2+1+Cx−22x2−x+3=(Ax+B)(x−2)+C(x2+1) By Substitution: At x = 2, 2(2)2−2+3=C(5)C=95 At x = 0, 3=−2B+C2B=95−3B=−35 By comparing coefficient of x2, A+C=2A=2−95=15 x3+1(x2+1)(x−2)=1+x−35(x2+1)+95(x−2) – Use long division to convert improper to proper rational function – Decomposition of partial fractions into its correct form
3 The quadratic equation 3x2+2x+1=0 has roots α and β. (i) Show that the value of α3+β3 is 1027. [3] 3x2+2x+1=0x2+23x+13=0α+β=−23αβ=13
