Solve simultaneously, 2x-3y=16 and x+2y=-6

In order to solve this we need to make two of the terms the same and use an elimination method so we are left with only one unknown rather than two. We will multiply x + 2y = -6 by 2 in order to get 2x + ...

The y-intercept of A is 7. A also passes through point (7, 2). (a) Find an equation of A in the form y = mx + c. (b) B is perpendicular to A and also has a y-intercept of 7. Write down the equation for B in the form y = mx + c.

(a) y-intercept = (0,7); other point = (7,2) ; gradient, m = change in y / change in x ; m = (0 - 7) / (7 - 2) => m = -7/5 ; y = mx + c (we know from the question that c=7) ; y = (-7/5)x + 7(b) gradien...
