Solve simultaneously: 2x + y = 18 and x - y = 6

Make both equal to y:y = 18 - 2xy = x - 6Make both equal to each other:18 - 2x = x - 63x = 24x = 8Substitute x into one of the original equations:x - y = 68 - y = 6y = 2So x = 8 and y = 2

Prove that the difference between the squares of two consecutive odd numbers is a multiple of 8.

(2n+3)2-(2n+1)2=(4n2+12n+9)-(4n2+4n+1)=8n+8= 8(n+1)Hence a multiple of 8

Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4

2n+1 will always be an odd number (e.g. if n is equal to 3 the answer would be 7, an odd number) So, we square 2n+1 and write this as (2n+1)2 2n +12n 4n...

A sequence is defined as: U(n+1) = 1/U(n) where U(1)=2/3. Find the sum from r=(1-100) for U(r)

Un+1=1/Un where U1= 2/3First of all, we need to find U2 and U3 and so on, up until we notice a pattern in the answers. U2 = 1/(2/3) = 3/2U...

Find the indefinite integral of f(x)=(1-x^2)/(1+x^2)

Int() in this case will refer to integralsAnswer is: f(x)=(1-x^2)/(1+x^2)=(2-(1+x^2)/(1+x^2)=-1+2/(1+x^2)=> Int(f(x))=Int(-1+2/(1+x^2))=Int(-1)+2Int(1/(1+x^2))=-x+2tan^-1(x)+C
