C1.2 Flashcards
Equation of a linear graph
y=mx+c
What is the gradient of the normal?
-1/m
transformation of y=f(x)
same
Integration
dy/dx to y
If two lines are perpendicular…
the product of their gradients is one.
equation of a quadratic
y=ax^2 +bx+c
equation of a cubic
y=ax^3+bx^2+cx+cd
equation of a reciprocal
y=a/x
What is the gradient of a line?
difference in y-coordinates / difference in x-coordinates
so m=y2-y1/x2-x1
How do find the equation of a line with gradient m that passes through the point (x1,y1)?
Use the formula, y-y1=m(x-x1)
Finding the equation of the line which passes through 2 sets of points
y-y1/y2-y1=x-x1/x2-x1
How do you integrate?
add one to the power then divide by the new power.
sx^ndx=?
integrate
If dy/dx= x^n
then y=1/n+1 x^n+1+c
How do you differentiate?
when y=x^n, dy/dx=nx^n-1
