Simultaneous equation: (x-3y)=9,(2x+3y)=0

Using one of the equations we express either x in the form of y, or y in the form of x. We then put this expression of x/y into the other equation. This allows us to calculate the numerical values of both x ...

ABCD is a rhombus on a graph. B(7,10). AC: y=7-4x. Find an equation for DB in the form tx+py+r=0 where t,p&r are integers.

AC and DB must be perpendicular therefore m 1 m 2 = -1. (we can work out the gradient of DB)-4 m 2 = -1 -----> m 2 = 1/4The equation of a line is y-y 1 =m(x-x 1 ) (sub in x, y and gradient values)y - 7 = ...
