For this, we need to use the formula ax²+bx+c. Multiply the coefficient of a from your equation with the value of c. This gives you a value from which you need to find 2 factors of this value w...

Using the formula ax²+bx+c, multiply the value of coefficient a, from your equation, with the value of c. Next, try to think of two factors of the number you just calculated, which also add tog...

2x + y = 18x - y = 6. There are a few methods you can use to tackle simultaneous equations. The one I find the easiest is making one of the unknowns a subject and plugging it back into the other equ...

Completing the square is a method of solving quadratic equations that can't be factorised. The end goal is to express the quadratic in the form:(x + a)² = -bWhich allows us to root both sides a...

The first step would be to rearrange the first equation to make y the subject:
3x+y=-4 ----> y=-4-3x
Next we want to substitute this value of y into the second equation
3x-4y=6 ----->...
