    If you don't get your B (and I'm sure you will), get your parents to argue that you deserve a place based on your work in the class since you came back to school, not your performance on one day three months ago.

    Thanks again, Spurious

    Any help in this question.
    using the difference of two squares, factorise:
    (2x+y)squared - 4
    It is on page 14 in the text and test 6(black one)
    much appreciated.

    I take it your mean factorise (2x+y)^2 - 4:
    (2x+y)^2 - 4
    (2x+y)^2 - 2^2
    Now use difference of two squares, a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b) to get
    (2x+y+2)(2x+y-2)
