1)
use the rule sin(a+b) = sin(a)cos(b)+cos(a)sin(b)
2. (3x-4)/(x^2+1)
quotient rule
(3(x^2+1) - 2x(3x-4))/ (x^2+1)^2
= (3x^2 + 3 - 6x^2 + 8x) / (x^2 +1)^2
= (-3x^2 +8x + 3) / (x^2+1)^2
a) (-3x^2 + 8x + 3) / (x^2 + 1)^2
b ) set that = to 0
(-3x^2 + 8x + 3) / (x^2 + 1)^2 = 0
(-3x^2 + 8x + 3) = 0
factorize it
(3x +1) (-x + 3) = 0
x = -1/3, 3
c)
make a sign chart and you will find that min at x =-1/3 because there is a sign change from negative to positive, and a max at 3 because there is a sign change from positive to negative. The two points are (-1/3, -45/10) min and (3, 1/2) as your max
