Outcomes

In this lesson you will learn about:

1. Rounding off numbers.
2. Estimating answers to calculations.

This YouTube video explores the concepts of approximations and estimations.

Outcomes:

• Design a diet and exercise regimen.
• Estimate the number of calories required for basic survival.
• Estimate the number of calories burned by exercise.
• Explain how heart health depends on diet and exercise.
• Explain how Body Mass Index (BMI) depends on weight and height.

In this video we’re going to discover how to factorise quadratics that don’t have 1 as the coefficient of the x-squared term. These are called non-monic quadratics. We can do it by trial and error and just spotting the factors, but this takes a lot of trial an error. Luckily there is a different method we can use instead, which we will looks at in this video.

This video explains how to find factors.

Video 1: Introduces the concept of prime factorisation
Video 2: Examples of prime factorisation
Video 3: Common mistakes made relating to prime factorisation

Outcomes

In this course you will learn how to:

1. Solve quadratic equations by factorisation.
2. Solve quadratic equations by using the quadratic formula.
3. Solve simultaneous equations involving quadratic equations
4. Solve word problems involving quadratic equations.

This online activity is a math game on rounding numbers. 

This is an online activity that provides you with various exercises on rounding whole numbers.

By the end of this unit you will be able to:

• Solve equations with a single variable which are called linear equations
• Solve equations with a single variable that is squared (quadratic equations) by factorisation.
