y+y=2y x×x=x 2 therefore, y+y-x×x=2y-x 2

In order to solve the question, we must find the value of y. First, we collect 'like terms'. This is when we put all the numbers on one side of the equals sign and put all the terms with y in it on the other...

Firstly, we have to factorise the quadratic equation. So what this involves is finding two numbers which add up to 7 but also multiply to give 10 at the same time. To help you with this we can find common mu...

Step 1: Rearrange equation to form x 2 + bx + c= 0 -Add 10 to both sides of equation: x 2 -7x +10=0 Step 2: Factorise the quadratic equation -Find two numbers which add to make -7 and multiply to make 10: -5...

Write 2x 2 + 12x + 3 in the form p(x + q) 2 + r Step 1: Factorise all the x terms using a common factor with brackets. In this case 2 is a common factor to both 2x 2 and 12x ==== Step 1 Answer: 2(x 2 +6x)+3 ...
