Systems of simultaneous equations are intriguing.
They are used to identify points that the equations have in common (in this case, an x and a y value). Interestingly, there are a number of ways to solve equations simultaneously. The two primary methods that are first learned in middle high school are substitution and elimination. In time, mathematics students also learn about the use of determinants and matrices as well (not to mention vectors, etc.).
My plan (at this stage) is to address these four key methods/topics on this website.
We were all deeply impressed with Graeme from the very beginning. [Lucas’] confidence radically changed within only 3 weeks of Graeme’s instruction and assistance. I am sure this was largely attributed to Graeme’s infectious passion and love for his subject, and his high personal level of skill, teaching experience and understanding of mathematics. Lucas always found Graeme could explain concepts so knowledgeably and easily, which really did transform Lucas’ appreciation and enjoyment of the subject. Graeme always gave Lucas assistance and time over and above his hour’s tutoring session. Graeme has developed a wonderful relationship and more of a mentoring role which has been of great assistance and value to Lucas as he faces the pressures of his final year of school. I have no hesitation in recommending Graeme as an outstanding tutor and friend, and a very wise, knowledgeable and capable teacher of the highest calibre.
