A = {multiples of 5 between 14 and 26}. B = {odd numbers between 14 and 26}. List the members of A∪B and A∩B.

First write down explicitly what the elements of A and B are.A={15,20,25}, B={15,17,19,21,23,25}.
Remember ∪ means OR. So A ∪ B is the set of items which are in either A OR B. This is {15,17,19,21,23,25,15,20,25}.
Remember ∩ means AND. So A ∩ B is the set of items which are in both A AND B. This is {15,25}.

Nadia has £5 to buy pencils and rulers. Pencils are 8p each. Rulers are 30p each. She says “I will buy 15 pencils. Then I will buy as many rulers as possible. With my change I will buy more pencils.” How many pencils and how many rulers does she buy?


Solve: x^2 + 2x - 3 = 0


Factorise the equation x^2 +5x = 6


Factorise and solve: x^2 - 8x = -15
