x^2+5x+6=0 When solving quadratic equations our goal is to revert back into the form (x+a)(x+b) from the form ax^2+bx+c Thus we need to have a method when completing this: A good method in this case is th...

Number of thirds in 1 = 3

Number of thirds in 9 = (number of thirds in 1) * 9 = 27 thirds

nth term= 4n-1

2cos(2x) = 1-2sin(x)

2(1-2sin²(x)) = 1-2sin(x) -- by our trigonometric functions

2-4sin²(x) = 1-2sin(x)

4sin²(x)-2sin(x)-1=0 -- rearrange

sin(x...

To work out the median of a set of numbers we first place them in order:

1p, 2p, 2p, 2p, 2p, 10p, 10p, 20p, 50p

Then the median is the middle value in the list, in this case 2p.

To wo...
