Number Systems
- Natural numbers are positive integers starting from 1, such as 1, 2, 3, and so on.
- Whole numbers include 0 and all positive integers, such as 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on.
- Integers include all whole numbers and their negative counterparts, such as ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on.
- Rational numbers are fractions that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers, such as 3/4, 22/7, and so on.
- Irrational numbers are non-repeating decimals that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers, such as π, e, and so on.
Fractions and Decimals
- Fractions can be added, subtracted, multiplied, and divided using various rules.
- Fractions can be converted to decimals and vice versa.
- Fractions can be simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor.
Algebra
- Linear equations are equations of the form ax + by = c, where a, b, and c are constants.
- Quadratic equations are equations of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, and c are constants.
- Graphs of linear and quadratic equations can be used to visualize and solve equations.
- Linear equations in two variables can be solved using substitution, elimination, or graphical methods.
Ratio and Proportion
- A ratio is a comparison of two quantities, often expressed as a fraction or a decimal.
- Equivalent ratios are ratios that have the same value, such as 1:2 and 2:4.
- Componendo and dividendo are techniques used to solve problems involving ratios.
- Ratios and proportions have various applications in real-life scenarios.
Percentage
- Percentage is a ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.
- Increase and decrease percentage can be calculated using the formula (New value - Old value) / Old value * 100.
- Percentage change can be calculated using the formula (New value - Old value) / Old value * 100.
- Percentage has various applications in real-life scenarios, such as finance, statistics, and science.
Profit and Loss
- Profit is the difference between the selling price and the cost price of a product.
- Loss is the difference between the cost price and the selling price of a product.
- Discount is a reduction in the price of a product, often expressed as a percentage.
- Marked price is the original price of a product before any discount.
- Profit and loss have various applications in real-life scenarios, such as business and commerce.
Simple Interest and Compound Interest
- Simple interest is the interest calculated on the initial principal amount.
- Compound interest is the interest calculated on both the principal amount and the accrued interest.
- Simple interest and compound interest can be calculated using formulas and have various applications in real-life scenarios, such as finance and banking.
Speed, Distance, and Time
- Speed is the rate of change of distance with respect to time.
- Distance is the amount of space traveled by an object.
- Time is the duration of an event or a journey.
- Relative speed is the speed of an object relative to another object.
- Speed, distance, and time have various applications in real-life scenarios, such as transportation and physics.
Data Interpretation
- Data interpretation is the process of analyzing and extracting information from data.
- Tabular data is data presented in a table format.
- Bar graphs and histograms are visual representations of data.
- Pie charts are circular representations of data.
- Data interpretation has various applications in real-life scenarios, such as business, statistics, and research.
