@®) Expanding brackets
To find the product of two expressions you multiply each term in one expression by each term in
the other expression.
Multiplying each of the 2 terms in the first expression by each of the
3 terms in the second expression gives 2 x 3 = 6 terms.

You must be able to solve simultaneous equations where one equation is linear and one is quadratic.
To solve simultaneous equations involving one linear equation and one quadratic equation,
you need to use a substitution method from the linear equation into the quadratic equation.
Simultaneous equations with one linear and one quadratic equation can have up to two pairs
of solutions. You need to make sure the solutions are paired correctly.
The solutions to this pair of simultaneous equations are x= 4,y=—3 and x=5.5,y=-1.5:
