MATHS homework help please!

[Mr.OSH]

hi i HATE mymaths.net i cant do anything on it EVER
please help




you dont have to do it all just a little bit would really help as im so stuck and if you wouldnt mind explaining i would be grateful
thanks !

Right firstly with simultaneous equations you'd work them out like so:

3x + 8y = -1
7x - 6y = 47

Because the signs are different (+ and -) we add together the values.

Firstly we need to get at least on set of values the same so lets say the y's.

x3 9x + 24y = -3
x4 28x + 24y = 188

so as we add the values:

37x = 185

185 / 37 = 5

so x=5

if we put that back into the original equation:

15 + 8y = -1
35 - 6y = 47

therefore as 35 take away something cannot be 47 6y MUST be a negative as - and - make a +.

6y therefore must equal:

12 / 6

^ y = -2

we can put this back into the first equation to check:

15 + - 16 = -1

I hope you understand that now.

The other ones will work in a similar way however you'll have to do it differently on the graph but just remember the fundamentals as you should think of simultaneous equations as just like on a graph where the intersect is your value .

I think I've explained this right - just read over whatever notes you took in class etc.

For question 2, use what's called the Elimination method where if it says for example;

y = 4x + 4
36 = x^2 + y^2

Just make it;
36 = x^2 + (4x+4)(4x+4)
from their just solve using "Change the side, change the operation" to get to;
17x^2+32x-20
From their use Quadratic Formula (-b+/-SQAUREROOTOF(b^2-4ac), All divided by 2.
Producing values for X, subbed into an equation to get Y.

btw i couldnt be bothered to explain what everyone else said is correct cba to do other ones

Wow thankyou all for your help people I honestly really do appreciate it! I think I get it now and I will do it now, sadly I closed the window and the questions will be different but it will only be different numbers so I'll be able to use my knowledge from what you've just taught me to get the right answers.

Thanks so much!

When are you acutally going to use this stuff outside a maths room?

Unless your going to be a mathmetician

Urgh I hate maths, and I hated that website!
Thank god I don't have to do it anymore.
