Take away 3 from both sides to give you : 5x = 15Divide by 5 on both sides to give you : x = 3

To solve this, you need to find two factors of -15 that total to give -2. The solution we're looking for is of the for (x + something) (x + something)=0, as you can then solve each bracket to get two resu...

From our base right angled triangle (base and height of 1) and remembering SOH CAH TOA ( tangent = opposite/adjacent), we can deduce tan(45) = 1 / 1 = 1

The probability that a girl chosen at random studies french is 3/5. This means that out of 700 girls at the school, three fifths (3/5) girls study french. To find out how many girls study french we must f...
