To calculate the probability assume it is equally likely to choose any of the 10 balls. This is reasonable as we are told that the balls are the same apart from their colours. If we label each ball by num...

Firstly, Take equation 1 (2y+4x=14) and divide it all by 2. This gives y+2x=7. Next make Y the 'subject' AKA put it on it's own. To do this Subtract 2x from both sides. Now we have Y=7-2X. Here you can se...

=(5a x 3a) + (5a x -4b) + (3a x -2b) + (-2b x -4b) =15a^2 - 20ab - 6ab + 8b^2 =15a^2 - 26ab + 8b^2

To solve these equations we need to eliminate one of the variables, so make y the subject of the second equation: y = x + 3. Now y can be substituted into the first equation: x^2 + (x+3)^2 = 29. Expanding...

To begin, understanding the basica concept of algebra and multiplication using brackets needs to be covered as I have met quite a few children who have been used to these equations but are still unsure ab...
