Factorise x^2-x-6=0, and solve, finding the values of x

When you factorise an equation, the final form should look like this: (x+a)(a+b)=0 in order to work out the possible value(s) for x. As a result, working backwards, we expand the already factorised final for...

What is Pythagorus Theorem ? Find the length of BC if given a right angle triangle ABC where AB is 8cm and the length of the hypotenuse AC is 10cm ?

Pythagorus Theorem states that the side of a 'Right Angled Triangle' can be found by using the formulae c 2 = a 2 + b 2 , where c is considered as hypotenuse. In our case the hypotenuse is AC and by putting ...

Determine the coefficient of y^3 in the binomial expansion (2x-3y)^4

Using the method of binomial expansion (which I will cover in more detail) we get (2x-3y)^4 = + 1(2x)^4(3y)^0 - 4(2x)^3(3y)^1 + 6(2x)^2(3y)^2 - 4(2x)^1(3y)^3 + 1(2x)^0(3y)^4 = = 16x^4 - 96x^3 y + 216x^2 y^2 ...
