$$\frac{24\pi (t - 1)}{1 + \sqrt{t}}$$ How can you integrate this??

Rewrite as $$ \frac{24\pi (\sqrt{t} - 1)(\sqrt{t} + 1)}{\sqrt{t} + 1} = 24\pi (\sqrt{t} - 1) $$

When checking if something is a counterexample, what should you do??

Make sure that the counterexample follows the definition of what is valid.

$$\log(ab^2c) = 7$$ If you have 3 sets of equations of something like this, how can you rewrite it??

As a set of simultaneous equations in the form $\log a + 2\log b + \log c = 7$

What is the general form of a geometric sequence for term $n$??

$$ ar^(n-1) $$

What is the formula for the sum of the first $n$ terms of a geometric sequence $ar^n$??

$$ \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{(r - 1)} $$

What is the formula for the trapezium rule with width $h$ and $y$ values $y_0$, $y_1$, $y_2$, etc??

$$ \frac{1}{2}h(y_0 + 2(y_1 + y_2 + … + y_{n-1}) + y_n) $$

What does it mean for a curve $f(x)$ to be concave??

$$ f''(x) \le 0 $$

What does it mean for a curve $f(x)$ to be convex??

$$ f''(x) \ge 0 $$

When does the trapezium rule produce an overestimate in terms of concavity??
