When performing live calculations of examples of questions for the students, I shall begin by writing down an approach to how they should tackle the problem. This will only take a minute and I’ve found do...

This is a very common type of question that might be asked in an exam and there are 3 methods we could use to solve this; by substitution, by elimination (or subtraction) or by using straight line graphs....

BIDMAS 

Following BIDMAS, multiply the bracket out before the addition of the 2y.

3y(5y+3) = 15y²+9y 

adding the 2y gives the calculation of 15y² + 9y +2y = 15y<...

In order to solve this equation we need to find a common denominator for the 2 fractions. It is impossible to name the common denominator while working with unknown variables such as x,y etc. but we know ...
