White:blue is 1:2. (There are twice as many blue counters)if there are 5 white counters there are 10 blue counterswhite + blue = 15in the bag there are the 15 white and blue counters PLUS the blacki.e. In...

Using pythagoras’ theorem:a^2 + b^2 = c^2
hypotenuse = sqrt(5^2 + 7^2) = sqrt(25+49) = sqrt(74)

So, we are dealing here with a quadratic equation as it is written in the form ax^2 + bx +c = 0 To tackle this we will firstly need to factorise the equation, we need to find two numbers that will multipl...

Firstly notice that to find a stationary point of a curve with an equation, the best first step is often to differentiate the expression. Then solve the equation for x when dy/dx = 0. In this case the y e...

8x² + 6x + 1. This is a quadratic equation as the highest power of x is to the power of 2.A quadratic is written in the form: ax² + bx + c. The coefficient of the x² term ...
