The student should state that there are x blue balls. From this, they may determine that overall, the number of blue and green balls combined must be 4x, and hence the number of red balls is therefore '10...

(1) 5(3x - 2y) = 14 -2ax 15x - 10y = 14 - 2ax (2) 15x +2ax -10y = 14 15x + 2ax = 10y + 14
(3) x(15 + 2a) = 10y + 14 x = (10y + 14) / (15 + 2a)
To asking us to make x the subject of a fo...

(a) let A be (x1,y1) and B be (x2,y2), Gradient = m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) m = (4- -5)/(-1-2) = 9/(-3) = -3 Gradient = -3
(b) equation of a straight line line: y = mx + c => y1 = ...

think of it in the form of Ax^2 +Bx +C. Most of the GCSE examples will have A as zero so we will ignore the A. To factorise this you need to find what two numbers multiply to make C and adds to make B. In...

To solve this, we need to factorise the expression (write as a product of two brackets). To do this we want to find to numbers that multiply to make +6 and add up to -5, for this case. These numb...
