We can express sqrt(20) as sqrt (4 x 5). This is equivalent to sqrt(4) x sqrt(5). We know that sqrt(4) = 2. This sqrt(20) can be written as 2sqrt(5).

The 'm' value should be used to provide a gradient to the graph (i.e. for every 1 unit the graph moves along the x axis, its y movement will be altered by multiplying 1 by 'm'). Therefore, the higher t...

We are factorising 2a² +6a. When we factorise an expression, we look for common terms that we can place outside of a bracket. Another way of thinking about this is something that both 2a^2 ...

The first step is to expand the expression. This can be done using the FOIL method. This means that we multiply the First, Outside, Inside and Last terms in the bracket.First: x . x = x²Outside...

When presented with an equation that involves x^2, it is likely to be a quadratic equation. This leads us to rearrange to the equation above into the form of ax^2 + b + c = 0. Therefore the equation ca...
