Recognise that quadratic can be factorised:

(x+4)(x-1)=0

This gives the solutions x=-4 and x=1 by inspection.

First Simplify the numbers we know. Therefore we get:       x²=75/3      which is the same as     x²=25

Now find the square root of 25, which is 5 or -5. Therefore x=5 or -5

To expand the brackets in a quadtratic equation you should multiply whatever is outside the bracket by that which is inside the bracket. For example: 2(x+3) First multiply the first part of the bracket wi...

1. Firstly, identify the recurring portion of the decimal. In this case, it is "13"

2. set up an equation "x=0.2131313

3. You need to place the repeatin...

My advice is always past papers! There are only so many questions that the examiner can ask, and a lot of the time the questions have already turned up in previous papers. I would also just try to stay as...
