Help with linear - non linear simultaneous equations?
Hi. So I mostly understand everything required for my upcoming exam (Systems of Equations), but I need some help with this in particular. Our teacher has told us NOTHING about it.
I can re-arrange linear - non linear simultaneous equations and solve them using my graphics calculator. But to get excellence you have to "prove your answer using algebra"
I'm finding it hard to understand from the examples in my workbook.
It says to use the discriminant of this equation "bsquared - 4ac"
I don't know what this is but I understand that you have to re-arrange the equation and substitute it into this formula. Is it always going to be this equation? For hyperbola/circle etc.
Can you please talk me through this question and explain how you would answer this? (must prove with algebra)
Find a value of k that means the straight line 'y= 2x + k' is a tangent to the circle 'xsqaured + ysquared = 20'
2 AnswersMathematics8 years agoHow is this for the start of a poem?
I sleep to shut my eyes, to drift away, to stop my thoughts, to numb the pain.
Sleep to forget it all, to stop the tears, to dry my eyes, to hide all fears.
To leave the world, to dream a dream, to not pretend, to not be seen.
I sleep to run away, to not come back, to never think, to not regret.
Sleep to find the time, to be happy, to laugh it off, to be let free.
To stop trying, to not give up, to find some hope, to build our trust.

2 AnswersDiet & Fitness1 decade agohelp please ? ? ..............................?
Ok..., last year this guy who was 16 told me he liked me.., (im 14) (: But he was going out with a girl in his year.
He told my friend he would break up with her and go out with me but i wasnt sure if i liked him back because he was two years older and i didn't want to ruin the relationship he had.
We stopped talking for about six months and now i've started to like him. (he IS single now haha)
We have started talking a little bit again but its a little awkward.
Should i try to get him to like me back..?..... Or give up? Im so confused i dont know what to do.
