Solve the two simultaneous equations. 1. x^2 + y^2 = 25, 2. y - 3x = 13

The way to solve simultaneous equations is to 'slot in' one equation into the other. For this question, we will use the information in equation 2 (after manipulating it) to solve equation one. First, we a...

The equation f(x) =x^3 + 3x is drawn on a graph between x = 0 and x = 2. The graph is then rotated around the x axis by 2π to form a solid. What is the volume of this solid?

f(x) = x3 + 3x V = π ∫ (f(x)2) dx V = π ∫02 (x3 + 3x)(x3 + 3x) dx V = π ∫02 (x6 + 6x4

Jason and Mary leave their houses at the same time. They travel towards each other, Mary at 20km/h and Jason at 15km/h. They pass each other after an hour and a half. What was the original distance between them when they started?

Mary = 20km/h Jason = 15km/h s = d/t After 1.5 hours, Mary = 30km and Jason = 22.5km 30 + 22.5 = 52.5km
