𝑥 = 4 𝑦 − 2 ………………. (1)

𝑦 + 16 = 2𝑥 2 + 10𝑥 … … … . . (2)
From (1), 2𝑥 = 𝑦 − 8 ✓ equation 3

∴ 𝑦 = 2𝑥 + 8 ………… (3)
subst.(3) in (2), 𝑦 + 16 = 2𝑥 2 + 10𝑥
2𝑥 + 8 + 16 = 2𝑥 2 + 10𝑥 ✓ correct substitution
2𝑥 2 + 10𝑥 − 2𝑥 − 24 = 0
𝑥 2 + 8𝑥 − 24 = 0 ✓ standard form

𝑥 + 4𝑥 − 12 = 0
(𝑥 + 6)(𝑥 − 2) = 0
✓✓ both x values
𝒙 = −𝟔 or 𝒙 = 𝟐
If 𝑥 = −6, 𝑦 = 2(−6) + 8
𝒚 = −𝟒
✓ y value
If 𝑥 = 2, 𝑦 = 2(2) + 8

QUESTION 6

6.1 Cyclist Speed Distance Time

Joe 𝑥 33 33⁄
𝑥
Peter 𝑥−1 33 33⁄
𝑥−1

33 33 18 ✓ method
− =
𝑥−1 𝑥 60
∴ 33(60)(𝑥) − 33(𝑥 − 1)(60) = 18(𝑥)(𝑥 − 1) ✓ simplification

∴ 1980𝑥 − 1980𝑥 + 1980 = 18𝑥 2 − 18𝑥

∴ 18𝑥 2 − 18𝑥 − 1980 = 0
𝑥 2 − 𝑥 − 110 = 0 ✓ standard form

(𝑥 − 11)(𝑥 + 10) = 0 ✓ factors

𝑥 = 11 or 𝒙 = −𝟏𝟎 N/A
✓ solutions with restriction
∴ Joe cycles at 11km/h ✓ conclusion (6)
