Factorise the equation: (3x+3)(x+1) = 0. Anything multiplied by 0 is equal to 0 therefore (x+1)=0 and (3x+3) = 0. Solve for x: if x+1 =0 you need to subtract 1 from x to work out what x is (do the opposi...

1. Hugo = x Ayo = x + 7 (as he is 7 years old than Hugo's age) Mel = 2 multiplied by (x +7) as she is twice as old as Ayo2) If their ages combined equals 77, you add up all the algebraic equations and...

We differentiate each term individually with respect to x. the way we differentiate powers of x is: x^n goes to nx^(n-1). So x^2 would become 2x, 2x would be just 2 as x^0 is 1 and a constant would just d...

This question involves ratios; men : women = 7:2; women : children = 1:3. We need to find a common number to combine the two ratios together. If we multiply the women:children ratio by 2, the ratio become...

In order for two lines to be parallel, they need to have the same gradient (m). The gradient (m) is the coefficient of x in the line equation y=mx+c. Therefore, the gradient of L1 is 3 since 3 is the coef...
