In order to answer this question, we will follow the FOIL procedure. First, Outter, Inner, Last. Using the 'F' we will multiply the first 2 numbers of each bracket. In most cases, these 2 variables will h...

First of all, we must multiply each equation by a suitable number in order to get the same leading coefficient. In simple terms, we must make the coefficient of the x or the y in...

Expand the brackets out first6x-3y=ax-4Now, get all the x's on one side6x-ax=3y-4and now factorise the side with the x's as we want to isolate xx(6-a)=3y-4and now divide both sides by (6-a)x=(3y-4)/(6-a)<...

Use the power rule on the right hand side of the equation to reduce the expression into simpler termsRemoves logs (several methods, I would personally halve and then cancel)Factorise to give x=a(4a^2<...

x = 150.This question requires that the student uses the symmetry of the sine graph. If we draw y = sin(30) on top of y = sin(x), it is clear that a possible value of x is 150.
A harder question coul...
