The line AB has equation 5x + 3y + 3 = 0 . (a) The line AB is parallel to the line with equation y = mx + 7 . Find the value of m. [2 marks] (b) The line AB intersects the line with equation 3x -2y + 17 = 0 at the point B. Find the coordinates of B.

Rearrange line into standard form.

y=5/3*x +1 

For parallel lines the gradient is the same therefore m = 5/3

Point of intersection is where two lines equal eachother

multiply o...

Rearrange the following to make 'W' the subject: aw + 3 = 4(bw + 5)

aw + 3 = 4(bw + 5)    Let's get rid of those brackets...
aw + 3 = 4bw + 20    Now we rearrange...
aw - 4bw = 17        Factorise...
w(a - 4b) = 17        Final rearrange...
w = 17 ...

what is the geometrical meaning of the derivative of a function f?

The derivative of a function f(x), usually denoted as f'(x), gives you the gradient of the graph of f(x) for every point x in the domain of f. Therefoore, the derivative of a funtion can show how fast/slo...

How do I draw a graph, y = mx + c, if I am only given m and a point that the line passes through?

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...

a x 10^4 + a x 10^2 = 24 240 where a is a number. Work out a x 10^4 - a x10^2 Give your answer in standard form.

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 ...
