Chapter 4: Calculus
1. Differentiation
Problem: Differentiate f(x)=5x3−4x+7f(x) = 5x^3 - 4x + 7f(x)=5x3−4x+7.
o Solution: f′(x)=15x2−4f'(x) = 15x^2 - 4f′(x)=15x2−4.
2. Integration
Problem: Evaluate the indefinite integral ∫(2x2−3x) dx\int (2x^2 - 3x) \, dx∫(2x2−3x)dx.
o Solution: ∫(2x2−3x) dx=2x33−3x22+C\int (2x^2 - 3x) \, dx = \frac{2x^3}{3} - \
frac{3x^2}{2} + C∫(2x2−3x)dx=32x3−23x2+C.
3. Chain Rule
Problem: Differentiate f(x)=(3x2+2)5f(x) = (3x^2 + 2)^5f(x)=(3x2+2)5.
o Solution: f′(x)=5(3x2+2)4⋅6x=30x(3x2+2)4f'(x) = 5(3x^2 + 2)^4 \cdot 6x =
30x(3x^2 + 2)^4f′(x)=5(3x2+2)4⋅6x=30x(3x2+2)4.
Chapter 5: Advanced Probability
1. Basic Probability
Problem: A box contains 3 red balls, 4 blue balls, and 5 green balls. What is the
probability of picking a red ball?
o Solution: Total balls = 3+4+5=123 + 4 + 5 = 123+4+5=12. Probability = 312=14\
frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4}123=41.
2. Permutations
Problem: How many ways can 5 books be arranged on a shelf?
o Solution: 5!=5⋅4⋅3⋅2⋅1=1205! = 5 \cdot 4 \cdot 3 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 = 1205!
=5⋅4⋅3⋅2⋅1=120.
