If 4x = 9y, and 2x + 5y = 95. What is the value of y^2 - x?

This is a simultaneous equation problem.If 4x = 9y then 2x = 4.5y.Then by substitution, 4.5y + 5y = 95.Then 9.5y = 95 (divide by 9.5) gives y = 10.By using back substitution 2x = 4.5*10 = 45 (divide by 2 to ...

How do I work out if two lines are parallel?

The gradients of the two lines must be the same. The gradient is m in the equation: y=mx+c For example: L1: y = 3x – 2L2: 3y – 9x + 5 = 0 First rearrange L2 so it is in the same form as L1 to get:3y=9x-5Then...

First step is to understand what it means for lines to be parallel. This is when the gradients of two lines are the same.This is much easier to see when the format of the equations is the same, so lets rearr...
