Specification References: N5.4h N5.4h Set up and solve simple linear equations, including simultaneous equations in two unknowns. |
This reference includes all the requirements of N5.4 and some additional requirements for the Higher tier only.
Questions may have solutions that are negative or involve a fraction.
Questions may be set with or without a context in Unit 2.
Linear simultaneous equations may be set with or without a context.
Solving simultaneously one linear and one quadratic equation will not be in context or graphical on Unit 2 (but will be in context or graphical or may include geometrical problems on Unit 3).
