    The document discusses several mathematical concepts including: 1) Transposition to solve equations by making a variable the subject of the equation such as solving 2x + 2 = x - 5 to get x = -7. 2) Variation where y is inversely proportional to x^2 and solving systems of proportions to find an unknown value given other information such as finding x when y = 20. 3) Completing the square formula and using it to find the value of h and k.

    Transposition

    Make x the subjects of:


    2x + 2 = x - 5

    2x + 2 = x - 5
    2x + 2 - 2 = x - 5 - 2
    2x - x = x - x - 5 - 2
    x = -7

    Variation

    y is inversely proportional to the x2, when x = 4, y = 5. What is the value of x


    when y = 20

    𝑘
    y= 2
    𝑥
    𝑘
    5= 2
    4
    5 × 42 = k
    5 × 16 = k
    k = 80

    80
    20 = 2
    𝑥
    20 × x2 = 80
    80
    x2 = 20
    x=4
    x= 4
    x=2

    Completing the ^2

    a(x + h)2 + k
    𝑏
    h = 2𝑎
    2
    4𝑎𝑐 − 𝑏
    k= 4𝑎
    Algebraic Fractions

    Binary Operations

    If a*b = ab - a + b
    2*4 = ?

    2*4 = 2(4) - 2 + 4
    =8-2+4
    = 10
