Solve (2x^2 - 3x - 14)/(x^2 + 6x + 8) = -6/(x+3).

LHS: Factorise numerator and denominator, which gives:((2x - 7)(x + 2))/((x + 2)(x + 4))Cancel out (x + 2), gives:(2x - 7)/(x + 4)Multiply both sides by (x + 4)(x + 3) to cancel the denominators, gives:(2...

A linear sequence starts with: a + 2b ; a + 6b ; a + 10b etc. The 2nd term has value 8. The 5th term has value 44. Work out the values of a and b.

We know that the 2nd term has a value of 8. Thus a + 6b = 8;What is more, we also know that the 5th term has a value of 44. We also know that the next element in the sequence increases by 4b when compared...
