Prelims
  1. Find \(\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d}x}{{\mathrm{e}}^{-{{x}^{2}}}}\). Hence find \(\int x^3 \mathrm{e}^{-x^2} \mathrm{d}x\).

    [3]
  2. By using the substitution \(z={{\mathrm{e}}^{-{{x}^{2}}}}y\), find the general solution of \(\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}-2xy={{x}^{3}}\), expressing \(y\) in teams of \(x\).[4]
