Solve the simultaneous equations, x+y = 16, 5x -2y = 17

Multiply the first equation by 2 to obtain 2x+2y = 32,Then use the elimination technique and add the first equation into the second equation to get : 7x = 49 therefore divide by 7 to find x = 7 Sub this valu...

Expand and simplify (x+1)(2x+3).

We first expand the first set of brackets by multiplying each element of it by the second set of brackets so (x + 1)(2x + 3) = (x)(2x + 3) + (1)(2x + 3) = x(2x + 3) + (2x + 3). We can then expand out the fir...

Solve the simultaneous equations for x and y: 9x-2y=7 4x-2y=2

Using the elimination technique:As we have -2y in both equations we can take the equations away from each other in order to eliminate -2y and create a new linear equation involving only x. this equation woul...
