Synopsis

Units 1 and 2 revise and extend basic mathematical knowledge and skills in basic algebra and graphs that should be familiar. This revision material should help to identify any gaps in knowledge and develop basic mathematical skills to the level required for the remaining units. These two units also demonstrate how to communicate mathematics, and introduce the mathematical software Maxima that is used throughout the units. Unit 3 looks at Functions - a means of representing situations where one quantity depends on another. Knowledge of functions is required for the later study of calculus. Each study text is structured in a similar way, and consists of a mixture of explanations of the mathematics, worked examples and activities.
