Solve the following set of simultaneous equations: 3x + 2y = 15 & 9x + 4y = 1

Label your equations 1 and 2. Look to eliminate one of your variables to create a third equation with only one variable. To do this multiply the first equation by 2 to obtain: 6x + 4y =30 *Label as equation ...

Find the equation of the tangent at x=1 for the curve y=(4x^2+1)^3

The tangent is the straight line passing through x=1, touching the curve only at that point. For x=1, y=(4+1)^3=125 Using the chain rule we obtain dy/dx = 3 8x (4x^2+1)^2. To then get the gradient of the tan...

If the fourth term in an arithmetic sequence is, u4 = 12.5, the tenth is u10 = 27.5. Find the common difference and the 20th term.

The equations for an arithmetic sequences are 1) Un = u1 + (n - 1)d 2) Sn = n/2(2*u1 + (n-1)d) 3) Sn = n/2(u1 + un) The first step is to calculate the common difference, d. This is done using the first equat...

Solve these simultaneous equations: 3y + x = 18 and x - 4y = -10.

Write x in terms of y using one of the equations. Then substitute it in the second equation, which is then only in terms of y. Find y. Then you can easily find x. Answer: x = 6 and y = 4.
