Hey guys I'm trying to solve this using an Intergrating Factor

Ive put it in standard form to get this:

Nows is the Intergrating factor is where I think ive gone wrong.

Say we take:

And I get:

But how can I further reduce that. I was thinking

But carring it on just compleatly messes up the equation, and I get some super hard intergral to solve on the RHS. Any help would be cool.

Thanks

Dan C3 was ACE for me, better than expected. C4 was ok. Rates of change i hardly answered sad

Ok heres how I did it

I'm not sure if i'm right though, so if someone could check through. Thanks.

Hey yeah I too have heard the Heinemann books don't explain stuff very well, and and reluctant to buy them. I was looking into

A-level Mathematics for Edexcel: Further Pure FP1 (Paperback) by Mark Rowland (Author)

found here http://www.amazon.co.uk/level-Mathematics-Edexcel-Further-Pure/dp/0199117837/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1211925129&sr=1-5

Thats seems pretty good, and is endorced by edexcel.

Ive only done M1 so far. What did you use to learn the rest?

Hey friends,

Just a quick question about my Edexcel course. Basically in school I'm only going regular Maths A Level. But I really want to persue it further by learning the Further Maths course myself, for fun. Maybe if I'm good enough take an exam in it.

So the question really is, at this moment does anyone know any good books prefrably endorced by Edexcel, for FP1 and M2. With enough explanation that I can learn by myself. Hopefully someone has read a good book, and can suggest it to me.

Many Thanks

~Amish

Yeah Edexcel, but we use a Pearsons/Longman A2 core book for it. ITs in there, we just never got tought it properly.

Hey man, thanks for the help, I knew it must have been a formula, but we wern't taught these directly in our course, but I'll make sure I do learn them.

Thanks

I've learn normal substitution, and by integration parts, Im an A Level standard.

Hey guys, Im stuck on a problem on my C4 practise paper. It's an integration question. I've got like 2 pages fo working, but I jsut can't do it.

Could you guys, not solve it exactly, but give me a tip of where to start off?

It is:

I'm assuming you use integration by parts, but I just can't get it.

Thanks for the help
