How do you solve simultaneous equations at GCSE?

Make one unknown match by multiplying, then add or subtract. Or rearrange one equation and substitute. Check both equations at the end.

Are quadratic simultaneous equations Higher?

Yes. A linear equation paired with a quadratic is Higher. Two linear equations appear on both tiers.

Why did I get the right x and the wrong y?

Usually a sign when you subtracted, or you substituted into a scaled equation that already had an error. Check in an original.
