To find the midpoint between two points, first we must find the mid point between the x coordiates and then the y coordinates.

The x coordiate of A is 8 and the x coordia...

Initially drawing a diagram of the two lines helps to establish whether values should be positive or negative and gives a rough approximation of where the answer may be:

By...

(1): 3x+5y=3

(2): 6x+6y=10

Multiply number one by two to give a common factor of 6x in both equations.

(3)=[2*(1)]- 6x+10y=6

Take away equation (...

-First of all add these two equations together so that the ys get eliminated. 
5x=15
x=3 
Since you have found the answer to x which is 3, substitute x into the equation 2x...

Factors of a number are: numbers that can be multiplied (by a whole number/ integer) to make the original number. For example, 6 is a factor of 42, because 6 can be multiplied by 7 to make 42.
