Confidence in your mathematical ability and subsequent answers in an exam is key. During an exam you should be confident with the answers that you are giving which can be achieved with steady revision and...

Step 1, find the gradient of line A: gradient = change in y/change in x = (y1 - y2) / (x1 - x2) = 9-3/4-2 = 6/2 = 3Step 2, find the gradient of line B: as the two lines are perpendicular, the gradient of ...

A derivative is a function that tells us the gradient of a curve at any point. Say you have a function like f(x)=x³+x² and you want to know when the function is stationary, i.e. has ...

3x + 2 = 11 . 3x = 9 . x=3 .

The aim of this question is to end up with 'x' standing by itself on one side of the equation. The key principle to achieve this is to understand that whatever you do to one side of the equation, you have...
