Simplify: 6y 2 +7y - 6y - 4 - 3y 2 The first step is to group the terms of the equation into y 2 terms, y terms and terms with no y: This gives, 6y 2 -3y 2 + 7y - 6y - 4 Next we are going to look at each ter...

(x+3)(x+2)To check this, use the 'FOIL' (first, outside, inside, last) method to ensure the answer is correct.x^2+2x+3x+6x^2+5x+6

Step 1: make one term in both equations the sameHere we will multiply equation B by 2 so that there is a 2y in both equationsEquation C = 2 x equation B = 2y + 4x = 16 Step 2: Combine the equationsIf we take...

First find 10% which is £55Next find 1% which is 55/10 = £5.50As 12% = 10% + 1% + 1%,12%= £55 + £5.5+ £5.5= £66

Because if we simply expand (x+y) 2 we'd get x 2 +y 2 +2xy which shows that there's an extra term which is 2xy. another practical way to check your work and see why LHS ≠ RHS is by substituting random number...
