A "day return" train ticket is £6.45. A "monthly saver" is £98.50. Sue worked for 18 days last month. She bought a day return ticket each day she worked. A monthly saver ticket is cheaper than 18 day return tickets. How much cheaper?

This is a simple GCSE question which might feature at the beginning of the paper. It tests the student's attention to detail by asking to find the DIFFERENCE and not just the price that Sue paid. Also, gi...

Find the derivative of the function y=3x^2e^(2x)sin(x).

y is the product of three different function, so we would use the product rule in order to calculate the derivative of the curve. In order to apply the product rule we need to find the derivatives of each...

f(x)=(2x+1)/(x-1) with domain x>3. (a)Find the inverse of f(x). (b)Find the range of f(x). (c) g(x)=x+5 for all x. Find the value of x such that fg(x)=3.

(a) Let y=f(x). Then y = (2x+1)/(x-1). Rearrange the equation to get x in terms of y to obtain the inverse function. This gives x=(1+y)/(y-2). So the inverse of f is f-1(x)=(1+x)/(x-2)<...

Solve this pair of simultaneous equations: 3x + 2y = 4 and 2x + y = 3

2x + y = 3   therefore  y = 3 - 2x

Substitute y = 3 - 2x in to the first equation:

3x + 2(3 - 2x) = 4

3x + 6 - 4x = 4

-x = -2   therefore x = 2

Substitute x = 2 in to ei...
