Simplify : 3a(b^2) * (a^3)b

Rearrange the terms and group: Numbers: (3*1) =3, a variables: a * (a^3) --> (1+3=4) Therefore (a^4); b variables: (b^2)*b --> (2+1=3) Therefore (b^3); Regroup: 3(a^4)(b^3)

Solve y=x^2 - 1, y=5 - x


Jo wants to work out the solutions of x^2 + 3x – 5 = 0 She says, ‘‘The solutions cannot be worked out because x^2 + 3x – 5 does not factorise to (x + a)(x + b) where a and b are integers.’’ Is Jo correct?


How do I expand brackets by multiplication?
