0606/13/M/J/17 — Question 9 · 8 marks

It is given that kk(15e5x5e5x)dx=6\displaystyle\int_{-k}^{k} (15\mathrm{e}^{5x} - 5\mathrm{e}^{-5x})\,\mathrm{d}x = 6.
(i)
Show that e5ke5k=3\mathrm{e}^{5k} - \mathrm{e}^{-5k} = 3.
[5]
(ii)
Hence, using the substitution y=e5ky = \mathrm{e}^{5k}, or otherwise, find the value of kk.
