Multiply the second equation by 2 so that the coefficients of y are equal.(4x+y=14) x2 = (8x+2y=28)Now subtract the first equation from 8x+2y=28.(8x+2y=28) - (3x+2y=13)and you get 5x=15.Divide both sides ...

In situations like this I would always find it best to draw a diagram with all the information we know labelled on it. Firstly, however, notice that our measurements are in different units. You can conver...

This is simpler than you think when you break it down. Just multiply both the numerators (the top number of your fraction) together for the new numerator of the fraction in your answer. Then do the same f...

(2x + 3)/(x+4) - (3x - 6) = 4 Initial equationTimes all terms by (x + 4) (2x + 3) - (3x - 6)(x + 4) = 4 (x + 4)Multiply out the brackets (2x + 3) - (3x² + 12x - 6x - 24) = 4x + 16Remove from br...

It is very easy to calculate the area of the whole circle and divide it by 4.The area of the whole circle can be calculated using the formula A = pir², where r is the radius of the circle a...
