Equal out the x terms so 12x+8y=32 and 9y+12x=33Then subtract the first equation from the secondThis gives y=1Put this value into one of the equations so 12x+8=32Solve the equation giving x as 2.

The first step is to expand the brackets by multiplication. This can be done using the 'bird method'. This results in 4m – 8 = 5mt + 3tNow to collect all 'm' like terms of the equation on the LHS. This gi...

Factorise the equation: (3x+3)(x+1) = 0. Anything multiplied by 0 is equal to 0 therefore (x+1)=0 and (3x+3) = 0. Solve for x: if x+1 =0 you need to subtract 1 from x to work out what x is (do the opposi...

1. Hugo = x Ayo = x + 7 (as he is 7 years old than Hugo's age) Mel = 2 multiplied by (x +7) as she is twice as old as Ayo2) If their ages combined equals 77, you add up all the algebraic equations and...

We differentiate each term individually with respect to x. the way we differentiate powers of x is: x^n goes to nx^(n-1). So x^2 would become 2x, 2x would be just 2 as x^0 is 1 and a constant would just d...
