A bakery sells
x
cakes for £2.25 each. If the cost to make each cake is £1.20, what is the profit,
p
, for selling all the cakes?
p = 1.2x
p = (2.25-1.2)x
✓
p = 2.25x - 1.2
What is the value of
x
in
2x + 3 = 15
'6' ✓
Simplify
3ax + 9ax + 13ax + b
'25ax + b' ✓
Expand
2(x - 3) + 4(2x + 1)
and simplify where possible.
'10x - 2' ✓
Simplify
3(x + 2)^2 - (x - 1)(x + 1)
where possible.
2x^2 + 12x + 13
✓
3x^2 + 12x + 7
4x^2 + 12x + 7
Factorise
4x^2 - 16
completely.
(2x + 4)(2x - 4)
(2x)^2 - 4^2
4(x-2)(x+2)
