Begin by adding the 2 ratio parts (i.e. the numbers which make up the ratio) so 8+5 = 13.

Then divide the total sum by the sum of the ratio parts. Thus £650/13 = £50.

So x² + 9x + 20 = 0 My preffered way of solving this equation is to factorise the equation. (Though I understand that different students may find other ways easier) Factorisation is where the a...

Let's draw a line. It crosses the point (0,1), intercepting the y-axis (remember, y to the sky!) at 1 and the x-axis at the point (-2,0).

An equation tells us what a line looks like, it's...

x=0.045 (45 recurring)

10x = 0.45 (45 recurring)

100x = 4.54 (54 recurring)

1000x = 45.45 (45 recurring)

To get rid of the decimals:

<...

We have two algebraic equations and we are trying to find what a and b can equal to fit for both situations. 

1. 6a + b = 16

2. 5a - 2b = 19

The easiest method...
