If the answer is a decimal, you start from the left and ignore any 0s- only count numbers that are not 0. For example, 0.0002 is to 1 significant figure even though there are 3 zeros before the 2. If the ...

v^2 = u^2 +2as, v^2-u^2 = 2as, (v^2-u^2)/2*a = s, End

The first step is to multiply both side by 8, as this will cancel out the 8 that is beneath the 6-2x. This will then make the equation look like this: 8y = 6-2x. As we are making X the su...
