Rearrange the second equation (or first) in terms of y (or x) y = 2-xthen subsitute into the other equation 3x + (2-x) = 4The solve for x : 2x = 2 x = 1then subsitute that value for x into any equation an...

x² + 4x + 3 is a quadratic equation. We're looking for a pair of numbers that add to make 4, and multiply together to make 3. Students should be encouraged to try options (e.g. 2 and 2).

The equation of a line is written in the form y=mx+c where m is the gradient of the line and c is the y-intercept. These are the two values that we will need to calculate.For example, lets take the two p...

To solve this pair of simultaneous equation I will use the substitution method however the elimination method could also be used here.
Eq1. 3x + 2y = 4
Eq2. 4x + 5y = 17
First rearrange Eq1...

Since 42% of voters are male, 58% must be female. Since 58-42 = 16, the difference of 400 represents 16% of the voters. We can then divide 400 by 16 to get 25, which represents 1% of the voters. 25 x 100 ...
