Let's label the equations x² + y² = 25 (1) y - x = 1 (2). We can use substitution to solve this simultaneous equation. Let's make y the subject of the equation (2) and we get y = x...

Unemployment, while useful in some cases, is inherently flawed as a metric for socio-economic progress. Official unemployment statistics fail to take into account the issue of hidden unemployment, defined...

Both are a type of intermolecular forces which means they act between more than 1 molecules. Do not confuse them with intramolecular forces acting within 1 molecule. Lond...

Rewrite as a^b = 1, where a = x^2+4x+3 and b = x^2-6x+8List the cases for which a^b = 1Case 1: a = 1:So x^2+4x+3=1 => x^2+4x+2=0 => x=-2 +/- sqrt(2)Case 2: b=0, a ≠ 0:b=(x-4)(x-2) => x = 2, x=4Ch...

To rationalise a surd means to manipulate a fraction involving terms which are being square rooted so that no term in the denominator is being square rooted. For this example 2/root(x) we multiply the fra...
