Study Notes
Grade 9 Math Culminating Notes
- Numbers: Includes natural numbers (counting numbers), whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, and real numbers
- Fractions: Comparing fractions with fractions involves finding the least common denominator (LCD), adjusting the fractions, and then comparing the numerators. Comparing fractions to decimals requires converting the fractions to decimals and then performing the comparison. Converting mixed numbers to improper fractions involves multiplying and adding, while the reverse conversion involves dividing and using the quotient as the whole number part. Adding and subtracting fractions with the same or different denominators needs adjusting. Multiplying and dividing fractions involves multiplying or dividing numerators and denominators and then simplifying if possible.
- Powers: Rewrite exponents as repeated multiplication. Assess positive versus negative solutions using the exponent's sign and whether the base is negative or positive. For multiplication of exponents, add the indices when multiplying powers with the same base. For dividing exponents subtract the indices when dividing powers with the same base.
- Power Rules: Follow the order of operations to simplify expressions involving powers.
- Scientific Notation: A method for expressing very large or very small numbers using powers of 10. The coefficient must be between 1 and 10. The exponent indicates the decimal movement.
- Order of Operations: Follow the correct order of operations, which is commonly remembered using BEDMAS (Brackets, Exponents, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction).
- Terms: Coefficients indicate the frequency of the variables within a term. Monomials are single-term expressions, binomials have two terms, trinomials have three terms and polynomials have two or more terms.
- Distributive Property: When a sum is multiplied by a number, we multiply each value within the sum by the number separately and then add the results.
- Equations and Solving: An equation is a statement indicating the equality of two expressions, allowing us to find the value of a variable by using inverse operations.
- Linear Relations: A linear relationship between variables produces a straight line when plotted on a graph. Linear Equations are expressions in the format of 'y = ax + b', where 'a' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept.
- Special cases of lines and inequalities: Horizontal lines have a zero slope. Vertical lines have no slope.
- Linear Inequalities: Inequalities represent relationships where values are not equal. Solid lines indicate inclusive relationships, while dashed lines indicate exclusive relationships; where '>' or '<' apply to the inequality.
- Linear Systems: A system of linear equations involves two or more linear relationships. The lines' point of intersection is the solution to the system.
- Collection of Data: Data collection can be primary or secondary. Primary data is originally collected. Secondary data is pre-existing data collected previously.
- Scatter Plots: Used to visualise the relationship between two variables, using dots to represent data points. Positive correlation indicates that both variables increase, negative correlation shows an inverse relationship, non-linear relationships are curved or irregular.
- Line of Best Fit: A straight line that closely follows the trend of the data points within a scatter plot. The line should pass directly through approximately equal numbers of data points above and below it.
- Correlation Coefficient: Indicates the relationship between variables in a scatter plot. The coefficient provides a value between -1 and +1, where 0 indicates no linear correlation, positive values indicate linear tendencies, and negative values show an inverse linear trend.
- Central Tendency: Describes the central or typical values in a dataset. Mean is the average; median is the middle number; mode is the most frequent number; range is the difference between highest and lowest numbers.
- Box Plots: A visual representation of the dataset's 5-number summary, including minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum values.
- Income: Active income is earned through work, passive income is earned from investments or assets, discretionary income is the remaining funds after essential expenses, while a budget manages income and expenses to achieve goals.
- Unit Price, Better Buy, Taxes, and Discounts: Calculating the unit price for a product helps compare prices of similar products. Discounts, sales, and taxes modify the final price of a product.
- Appreciation and Depreciation: Appreciation is the increase in value of assets, while depreciation is the loss in value over time.
- Interest: Simple interest is calculated using the formula I = Prt, where I is the interest, P is the principal, r is the rate, and t is the time. Compound interest is calculated using the formula A = P(1 + i)^n, where A is the final amount, P is the principal, i is the interest rate, and n is the number of times interest is compounded. To calculate the total interest paid, subtract the original principal from the final amount.
