Line A is parallel to the line 4y+12x=24. Find the equation of Line A if it passes through the point (5,40/3).

Line A and line 4y+12x+24 are parallel. This means that they have the same gradient. In y=mx+c the gradient of the line is m. We can rearrange the equation 4y+12x+24 to find m. To begin with subtract 12x...

Matt has 3 piles of coins, A , B and C. Altogether there was 72p. Pile B had twice as much as pile A. Pile C had three times as much as pile B. How much money was in Pile C?

so we know that A+B+C= 72. We also know that B=2A (1) and C=3B which means C=6A (2) and with this information we can re arrange to equation to be only have one variable. so A+2A+6A= 72 Collecting all the ...

Solve simultaneously 2x + 3y = 18 and y = 3x – 5 to find the value of x and y.

sub the y value into the first eqn 2x + 3(3x-5) = 18 expand the brackets 2x +9x-15 = 18 add up the x values 11x -15 = 18 a...
