Simultaneous equations - Intermediate & Higher tier test questions - WJEC

1

Substitute \({y}\) = 4 into the following equation: 4\({x}\) + 2\({y}\) = 52. What is the value of \({x}\)?

2

Two simultaneous equations are given as 2\({x}\) + \({y}\) = 5 and 3\({x}\) + \({y}\) = 7. Find the value of \({x}\) and \({y}\).

3

Two simultaneous equations are given as: 6\({x}\) – 2\({y}\) = 15 and 4\({x}\) + 3\({y}\) = –3.

Which of the following cannot be used to solve the equations?

4

The cost of 2 sandwiches and a juice is £3.40. The cost of 4 sandwiches and 3 juices is £7.20. Which simultaneous equations show this information?

5

The cost of 2 sandwiches and a juice is £3.40. The cost of 4 sandwiches and 3 juices is £7.20. What is the cost of a juice?

6

The cost of 2 sandwiches and a juice is £3.40. The cost of 4 sandwiches and 3 juices is £7.20. What is the cost of a sandwich?

7

Two simultaneous equations are given as \({y}\) = \({x}\) + 4 and \({y}\) = \({x^2}\) + 4\({x}\).

Which of these are not a solution point for the equations?

8

Look at the diagram below. What is the solution point for the graph?

Two graphs on a grid, neither of which is labelled

9

How can you rearrange 4\({x}\) + 2\({y}\) = 6 into the form \({y}\) = m\({x}\) + c?

10

Two graphs are given as \({y}\) = 0.5\({x}\) and \({y}\) = 2\({x}\) – 6. Either by plotting the graphs or otherwise, find the values of \({x}\) and \({y}\). The first graph is plotted for you on the diagram below.

One graph on a grid labelled y = 0.5 x. The graph passes through the origin
