Find the coordinates of the point of intersection of the lines 2x + 5y = 5 and x − 2y = 4.

Rearrange both equations to make y the subject:2x + 5y = 5 rearranges to y = -2x/5 + 1 and x - 2y = 4 rearranges to y = x/2 - 2Equate both the rearranged equations and solve for x:-2x/5 + 1 = x/2 - 2x = 1...

A linear sequence starts with: a + 2b ; a + 6b ; a + 10b etc. The 2nd term has value 8. The 5th term has value 44. Work out the values of a and b.

We know that the 2nd term has a value of 8. Thus a + 6b = 8;What is more, we also know that the 5th term has a value of 44. We also know that the next element in the sequence increases by 4b when compared...
