This fascinating video details the journey that a group of friends made in Nevada. Their aim was to illustrate the solar system to scale.

By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Solve equations with a single variable which are called linear equations

By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Apply the zero-product law.
• Solve rational quadratic equations which have fractions with the unknown in the denominator.
• Factorise quadratic expressions to solve for the unknown variable.

There are a few different ways to solve quadratics: factorising, using the quadratic formula or by completing the square. In this video we look at solving by factorising.
