Make x the subject of the equation. y = 4( 2 + x )/ (6x -1)

First lets times both sides by (6x -1) y(6x - 1) = 4(2 + x) now lets expand the brackets 6xy - y = 8 + 4x now lets move all the ones with x as a factor onto one side of the equation and the rest on the other. 6xy - 4x = y + 8 now if we factorise x(6y - 4) = y + 8 now if we divide through by (6y - 4) x = (y + 8) / (6y - 4)

How would you work out the length of an hypotenuse, if the length of the opposite side is 3 cm and the length of the opposite side is 4 cm?


A right-angled triangle has one angle size 60 degrees, and hypotenuse of length 32cm. Calculate the length of the side opposite the 60 degree angle, to 3sf.


Solve 4(x+3)=2x+8


A scalene triangle PQR, where PQ is (3x+4)m long, QR is (2-x)m long and angle PQR is 30 degrees, has an area of 2 square metres. Find x.
