How would you solve (4y + 3)/5 + (3y+1)/2 = 4 for y?

The first step is to remove the fractions in the equation, as the equation is easier to solve when there are only whole numbers.To remove the first fraction we should times the entire equation by 5 ----&g...

Find the equation of the normal of the curve xy-x^2+xlog(y)=4 at the point (2,1) in the form ax+by+c=0

differentiating: xy'+y-2x+(x/y)y'+log(y)=0rearranging: y'=y(2x-y-log(y))/x(1+y)at (2,1): y'=3/4 so gradient of normal at (2,1) is -4/3so the equation of the normal is y-1=(-4/3)(x-2)which is equivalent to...

Solve the simultaneous equations y = x^2 +3x and y = x+8

Because both of the equations are equal to y, the first thing we do is make them equal to each other:x^2 + 3x= x + 8We then want to rearrange the equation so that everything is on the same side of the equ...

Solve the equation 2log (base 3)(x) - log (base 3)(x+4) = 2

First express as a single logarithm as follows. The number in front of the logarithm remembering log rules can be rewritten as the power of the number in the bracketsSo rewriting the LHS
