First, we want all the terms with X on one side, so let's +5 to both sides.3x² = 48Let's simplify, so we get x² on its own.48÷ 3=16x² = 16Now, we need x 'unsquared', so we...

First simplify the equation! This means making the side with your Xs on easier to read.162÷2=81Now we have x² = 81 √81=9(Remember 9x9=81.)

Rearrange y - 3x = 13 to y = 13 + 3xSquare y to give y^2 = 169 +78x +9x^2Sub into first equation to give x^2 + 169 + 78x +9x^2 = 25Simplify to give 10x^2 + 78x + 144 = 0 Apply quadratic formula to solve ...

As it is not clear which is biggest, we need to make sure that the fractions are in their simplest form. For 33/56 there no common factors so this is the simplest form. 4/7 is clearly in the simplest form...

When using the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) on fractions there are specific methods for each. Multiplication and division are very similar. In order to multiply two...
