Rectangle ABCD has sides 2x+5 and x+2 with rectangle EFGH of sides x+3 and x cut out of it. The total area of shape ABCD is 5cm^2. Show that 0 = x^2 + 6x +5 [5 Marks]


x^2 - y = 14, y - 2 = 6x, solve these equations simultaneously


There are 11 pens in a box. 8 are black and 3 are red. Two pens are taken out at random without replacement. Work out the probability that the two pens are the same colour.
