equations





-Simultaneous equations refer to a set of equations involving multiple variables that must be solved at the same time. In other words, the solution to each equation in the set must satisfy all of the other equations in the set simultaneously.

For example, consider the following set of simultaneous equations:

3x - y = 12

2x + y = 13

To solve these equations, one needs to find the values of x and y that satisfy both equations at the same time. One approach to solve simultaneous equations is to use the method of substitution or elimination.

In the method of substitution, one of the equations is solved for one variable (usually the one with the easiest coefficient), and then the resulting expression is substituted into the other equation. This reduces the number of variables to one, which can be solved to find its value. Then, the value found is substituted back into one of the original equations to find the other variable.

In the method of elimination, one or more variables are eliminated by adding or subtracting the equations in a way that results in a new equation that contains only one variable. Then, the value of the eliminated variable can be found and substituted back into one of the original equations to find the value of the remaining variable.

In our example above, one can use the method of substitution to solve for x or y in one of the equations and substitute it into the other equation. Alternatively, one can use the method of elimination to add or subtract the equations in a way that eliminates one of the variables. Either way, the goal is to find the values of x and y that satisfy both equations at the same time.

3x - y = 12

2x + y = 13

(3x - y) + (2x + y) = 12 + 13

5x = 25

5x/5 = 25/5

x = 5

substituting 5 for x,

(3 x 5) - y = 12

15 - y = 12

15 - y - 15 = 12 - 15

-y = -3



-y/-1 = -3/-1

y = 3

therefore,

x = 5

y = 3

  Janith's Equation Janith's equation is a very complex equation found by Mr.Janith in 2023. Scientists show that this will change the whole world. Our Professor Mr.Sithumina says he had never seen an equation like this before. He also confirmed that this is accurate and acceptable.  After seeing this equation our Educational Minister - Mr. Sasen agreed to enter this equation into the Advanced Level Syllabus. He says that, to understand this equation students need much knowledge and experience, and he needs help understanding that.

We are going to see a Supernova!

   We are going to see a Supernova Predicted Supernovae of Star Betelguese         When you look at the Orion constellation, you notice some significantly bright two stars. Namely, they are - Rigel - the brightest blue one, and Betelgeuse - the bright red one. Recently scientists have found strange behavior from Betelgeuse.  In late 2019, astronomers detected strange dimming of Beteletguese. It loses almost 60% of its brightness, leaving a mysterious doubt behind. Astronomers think that it happened because of an internal thing that happened inside of this star, and obviously, they suggest that Betelgeuse is going to end its life soon, very soon. That "soon" is from the star's point of view. Because scientists think that it is going to go supernova in 10 to 100,00 years. Yeah, that's quite large, for a star, it's a bit small. Because an Average star lives at least 5 billion Earth years. Again it's large - because stars are LARGE! How it wil...
