Given point A: (5,9), point B: (d,15) and the gradient of line AB is 3... what is the value of d?

First use the gradient equation for a line: difference in y over difference in x:dy/dx = gradienttherefore: (15-9)/(d-5) = 315-9=3(d-5)6=3d-1521=3dtherefore d = 7

Solve the simultaneous equations 4x + 2y =20 and 8x + 6y =45


how would you solve the simultaneous equations 3x + 4y = 11, 5x - y = 3?


Solve these simultaneous equations: 2x + y = 7, and 3x - y = 8. Do so by 1) Eliminating an Unknown and 2) Substitution.


Solve the equation x ^2>=3(x + 6)
