Solve the following simultaneous equations: 3x + y = 11 2x + y = 8

Start off by determining which unknowns have the same coefficient-      In this case it would be y as the coefficient of y is 1 in both equationsThen make both equations equal to y-      So 3x+y= 11 would...

Show that the line with equation ax + by + c = 0 has gradient -a/b and cuts the y axis at -c/b?

This question involves inspecting the answers that have been provided to us. We have been given a constant gradient, and a point at which the line given by the equation cuts the y axis. This, therefore, m...

f(x) = 3x - 2a || g(x) = 2ax + 1 || fg(x) = 2x + b/2

fg(x) = 3(2ax +1) - 2a = 6ax + 3 - 2a6ax + 3 -2a = 2x + b/26a = 2 -> a = 1/33 - 2a = b/2 -> if a = 1/3 then: 3 - 2(1/3) = 9/3 - 2/3 = 7/3 7/3 * 2 = b = 14/3

Factorise 6x^2 + 7x - 3=0

In order to solve the equation, we need to find a way to break the '7x' term in the middle that allows factorisation. We also need to consider the fact that the last term '-3x' has a minus sign. This broa...

Solve the differential equation (1 + x^2)dy/dx = x tan(y)

Firstly rearrange the equation so that only dy/dx is on the left hand sidedy/dx = (x/(1+x^2)) tan(y)Now separate the variables such that the x terms are on one side with the dx,...
