Write x^2+4x-12 in the form (x+a)^2+b where a and b are constants to be determined.

This method is known as completing the square. To find the constant a, we must halve the coefficient of x, which in this case is 4. This is to compensate for the double term when expanding the brackets. S...

A curve (a) has equation, y = x^2 + 3x + 1. A line (b) has equation, y = 2x + 3. Show that the line and the curve intersect at 2 distinct points and find the points of intersection. Do not use a graphical method.

a) y = x2 + 3x + 1b) y = 2x + 3At points of intersection (a) = (b).2x + 3 = x 2 + 3x + 1Note this is a quadratic expression which will solve for 2 unique solutions, providing the dis...

Find the inverse of: f(x) = (2x + 3)/(x - 4)

To find the inverse of a function, f-1(x):1) set f(x) as y: y =  (2x + 3)/(x - 4)2) swap x and y: x = (2y + 3)/(y -4)3) solve the new equation for y: x(y -4) = 2y + 3 = xy -4x2y - xy = -4x - 3y...
