Quadratic Simultaneous Equations – GCSE Maths

Introduction

  • Two or more equations that share variables and have set of values for variables that satisfy both the equations are called Simultaneous Equations.
  • If the maximum power raised to the variable in Simultaneous equations is one then these are called Linear Simultaneous Equations.
  • Similarly If the power raised to the variables is two they are called Quadratic Simultaneous Equations.

Step by Step Solving Quadratic Simultaneous Equations

ExampleProblem for step by step solving of a quadratic simultaneous equations with variable x and yStep#1: Substitute the value of one variable from linear equation(to eliminate one variable) –

Putting y = 2x -1 in 2nd equation –solution of x and y quadratic simultaneous equations with variable x and yStep#2: Substitute the values obtained back into the original equation and find possible values of another variable-
