The first term of an arithmetic series is a and the common difference is d. The 12th term is 66.5 and the 19th term is 98. Write down two equations in a and d then solve these simultaneous equations to find a and d.

The first step is to recall the formula for arithmetic progressions: u(n) = a + (n-1)d We can then put all the information given in the question into this so u(12) = 66.5 = a + 11d and u(19) = 98 = a ...

Find the equation of a straight line that passes through the coordinates (12,-10) and (5,4). Leaving your answer in the form y = mx + c

Finding the gradient (m): The gradient is the change in y-axis over the change in x-axis Δy = -10-4= -14        Δx = 12-5=7 Δy/Δx = -14/7 = -2 Ac...

The polynomial f(x) is define by f(x) = 3x^3 + 2x^2 - 8x + 4. Evaluate f(2).

f(x) = 3x^3 + 2x^2 - 8x + 4

f(2) = 3(2)^3 + 2(2)^2 - 8(2) + 4

f(2) = 3(8) + 2(4) - 8(2) + 4

f(2) = 24 + 8 - 16 +4

f(2) = 20
