putting in the conditions: 18000 = 2000e^3k ..  ln(9) = 3k .. k=(1/3)ln(9)

Rearrange the equation so that the x terms and y terms bracketed together, like so: (x^2 - 4x) + (y^2 + 10y) - 115 = 0. Complete the square on both sets of brackets, giving (x - 2)^2 - 4 + (y + 5)^2 - 25 ...

Divide 160 by 2 as many times as you can to get 80x2, 40x2x2, 20x2x2x2, 10x2x2x2x2, 5x2x2x2x2x2. Then re-write your answer so that it is 5x2^5. If you're struggling to divide by 2 and keep track of how ma...

As we are considering a quadratic equation, we are looking for two values of x that make the equation equal to 0. To factorise, first look to the constant term (the term without any x) to find 2 numbers t...

First bring all the x terms to one side by taking 5x from each side, this gives 2x-4=8. Now put all the number terms on the other side by adding 4 to each side, this gives 2x=12. We can now divide both si...
