How do you solve simultaneous equation where one of them involves powers?

Example: y - 3x = 2 , x2 + y2 = 4 y= 3x + 2 x2 + (3x+2)2 = 4 10x2+ 12x + 4 = 4 10x2+12x=0 x(10x+12)=0 x=0 or x=-1.2 y=30 + 2 = 2 (0,2)...

Show that arctan(x)+e^x+x^3=0 has a unique solution.

Since either sketching the function f(x)=arctan(x)+ex+x3 or evaluating the precise/approximated solutions of the equation would be impossible with A-level techniques, we have to come...

A and B have coordinates (2,3) and (5,15), respectively. Together they form line l. Find the equation for the line r that goes through C(7,-2) and is perpendicular to l. Give the answer in the format of y=mx+b

To get the equation that describes l, we'll need to get the slope first: (15-3)/(5-2)=12/3=4r is perpendicular to l so it's slope is given by: -1/4To get b we calculate: -2=7*(-0.25) + b <=> b = -1/...

Solve the Simultaneous equations x^2 + y^2 =29, y-x=3.

y=x+3, Substitute into equation 1 : (x^2) + (x+3)^2 = 29Expand the Brackets : (x^2) + (x^2 + 6x + 9) = 29Collect like terms : 2x^2 + 6x - 20 = 0Take out a factor of two : x^2 +3x -10 = 0Factorise : (x-2)(...

Find the derivative of the following function with respect to x. y = 5e^x−2xsin(x)

So, what I would be looking for from students who are answering this questions are the application of differentiation techniques that they would have been taught at Year 12. The first step in answering th...
