This leaflet shows how simple linear equations can be solved by
performing the same operations on both sides of the equation.

This leaflet explains how to factorise simple expressions by looking for common factors. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 2.5)

Factorising can be thought of as a reversal of the process of removing brackets. When we factorize an expression, it is written as a product of two or more terms, and these will normally involve brackets.

We can build up complicated functions from simple functions by using the
process of composition, where the output of one function becomes the input of another. It is also sometimes necessary to carry out the reverse process, decomposing a complicated function into two or more simple functions. This unit explains how. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

In this unit we give examples of simple linear equations and show you how these can be solved. In any equation there is an unknown quantity, x say, that we are trying to find. In a linear equation this unknown quantity will appear only as a multiple of x, and not as a function of x such as x2, x3, sin x and so on. Linear equations occur so frequently in the solution of other problems that a thorough understanding of them is essential.

After reading this text, and/or viewing
the video tutorial on this topic, you should be able to
understand the process involved in differentiating from first principles and
differentiate some simple functions from first principles.

This introductory leaflet explains what is meant by a function, gives functional notation, and some simple examples. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 3.1)

This leaflet explains about how points are plotted on a simple graph. It explains words such as origin, coordinates, axes.

This leaflet explains how simple formulae are rearranged. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 2.10)

The ability to rearrange formulas, or rewrite them in different ways, is an important skills. This leaflet will explain how to rearrange some simple formulas.

This leaflet reminds students of Pythagoras' theorem and gives some simple examples. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 4.5)

In this unit, we recall what is meant by a simple sequence, and introduce
infinite sequences. We explain what it means for two sequences to be the same,
and what is meant by the n-th term of a sequence. We also investigate the
behaviour of infinite sequences, and see that they might tend to plus or minus
infinity, or to a real limit, or behave in some other way.
