Example 1
(a) Find, in its simplest form, the product of a⅓ + b⅔ and a⅔ - a⅓ b⅔ + b4/3.
(b) Simplify
*************************Answer:
(a)
(b)
Example 2
*************************Answer:
Example 3
*************************Answer:
(a)
(b)
(c)
Example 4Solve the following simultaneous equations
(a)
(b) Given that y = axb + 10 and that y = 26 when x = 2 and y = 64
when x = 3, find the value of a and of b.
*************************
Answer:
(a)
Substitute x = 3 + 2y into (2)
2(3 + 2y) + 3y = -1
6 + 4y + 3y = -1
7y = -7
y = -1
Substitute y = -1 into (1)
x = 3 + 2y
x = 3 + 2(-1)
x = 1
(b)
y = axb + 10
Substitute x = 2 and y = 26 into
y = axb + 10
26 = a(2)b + 10
16 = a(2)b ------------------ (1)
Substitute x = 3 and y = 64 into
y = axb + 10
64 = a(3)b + 10
54 = a(3)b ------------------ (2)
(2) / (1)
By comparison, b = 3
Substitute b = 3 into (1),
16 = a(2)3
16 = 8a
a = 2
All in ExamWorld as well. Thanks Ahm97sicI will do the rest of the examples later.Everyone is welcomed to add contributions as well :DEdited by eagle 29 Sep `08, 3:28PM

Hi Eagle,
Thanks for the help to post "O" level Add Maths Indices in the forum. I do not know how to type/post the formula and mathematical symbols in the forum.
Dear Eagle will help to post the 5 patterns in the actual "O" level Add Maths on indices with 5 examples and one example for one pattern. This will be followed by the actual "O" level Add Maths Indices exam questions arranged according to these 5 patterns.
Hope this will be of help to Add Maths students who will be taking their "O" level exam.
Many thanks to Eagle for the help.
Thank you for your kind attention.
Regards,
ahm97sic
