Equation 1) y=3x+4Equation 2) y=x+1
Rearrange equation 2 into terms of x as this is the simplest: x= y-1 (We do this by subtracting 1 off of each side to get X by itself)Substitute new equation 2 int...

X² - X -12 look at what numbers will add together and make 12. (2x6) or (3x4)Then see what of these combinations, when added together, makes -1. you have to consider that one of these values wi...

The first thing to do, is see if it can be simplified: 5x -1 can't, however x^(3) - x simplifies to x(x^2 - 1) and then to x(x-1)(x+1) by the difference of two squares. So now we have (5x - 1)/(x(x-1)(x+1...

Differentiation is a really common technique in a branch of maths called calculus. The idea is that you have a line on a graph (or a 'function') and we want to know the gradient - the steepness - of that ...

The first stage is the simple drawing of the sin graph. (could be done on the whiteboard)Then it is a typical A-Level style question to perform three types of transformations on that graph, here we have 1...
