Use simultaneous equations to find the points where the following lines cross: 3x - y = 4 and x^2 + 7y = 5

The points where the lines cross are the points where the two equations equal each other. To do this we solve simultaneous equations. Call equations as follows:(a) 3x - y = 4(b) x 2 + 7y = 5 First take (a) a...

(FP1) Given k = q + 3i and z = w^2 - 8w* - 18q^2 i, and if w is purely imaginary, show that there is only one possible non-zero value of z

k = q + 3i and z = k 2 - 8k* - 18q 2 i. Plug k into w to give: z = (q + 3i) 2 - 8*(q - 3i) - 18 q 2 i. k means the compliment of k which just means that the sign before the imaginary value is switched to neg...
