To solve simultaneous equations we want to use only one variable so either x or y. Therefore we need to eliminate (get rid of) one of the variables .If you multiply x - 3y = 9 by 5 you will get 5x - 15y =...

You have to look at the where the angle is located and what sides of the triangle relative to the angle you are given. The hypotenuse is always the longest line of the triangle, the opposite is always the...

To solve the equations the first step to take is to eliminate one of the variables x or y so we can get the value of it and then substitute it back in to get the value of the other.
One way to do thi...

Rearrange x - 3y = 9 to make x the subject by adding 3y to both sides of the equation, giving x = 9 + 3y. Substitute the value of "x" in the second equation for "9 + 3y", giving: 5(9 ...
