Factors of a number are: numbers that can be multiplied (by a whole number/ integer) to make the original number. For example, 6 is a factor of 42, because 6 can be multiplied by 7 to make 42.

For two linear simultaneous equations, two algebraic methods can be used to find solutions.The first is elimination, which is usually a lot quicker. Elimination involves subtracting one equation form t...

Volumes of revolution are contructed by a fuction of x, y=f(x), rotated 360 degrees, or 2pi radians around the x asxis. For example, a function of y=2 would create a cylinder of radius 2 in its ...
