Let's say we have the equation y = 2x + c and we are told that the line passes through the point (3, 4).  Our first step is to use the numbers from the point (3, 4), by substituting them into our equation...

From first principles: ax10^4 is the same as a0000. ax10^2 is the same as a00

So, a0000

          a00

     a0a00

If we look at this pattern and compare to the number in ...

To begin to solve this question, we need to re-arrange the equations presented so they both appear in terms of 3y=. This will allow us to get a value for y and thus a value for x. First re-arrange the fir...

One way to solve simultaneous equations is to express x in terms of y (or vice versa) and solve your new equation to find one of the values. You can then substitute this into your equation to work out the...

None caluclator paper, so you know that the divisions/multiplications will be relatively simple. First thing to do is convert both measurements we have into the same units (in this case millimetres). We s...
