Q

HCF-

A

Write each number as a product of its primes.
To find the HCF, multiply all factors which appear in both lists

60= 2, 2,     3,    5
72= 2, 2, 2, 3, 3

eg. HCF of 60 and 72 is 2 x 2 x 3= 12

Q

LCM-

A

The LCM is found by multiplying all the factors which appear in either list.

60= 2, 2,     3,    5
72= 2, 2, 2, 3, 3

2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 360

Q

Percentages-

A

To change a fraction or a decimal to a percentge you multiply by 100%
e.g. 3/8 = (3/8 x 100/1)%= 37.5%

Q

Working out percentages-

A

eg 7% of £3200
= 7/100 x 3200/1 = £224
or 0.07 x 3200 = £224

Q

Percentage Increase-

A

£8400 is increased by 5%= 105% of £8400
= 1.05 (percentage multiplier) x £8400
= 8200

Q

Compound Interest-

A

“A bank pays a fixed interest of 10% on money in accounts. Amanda put £500 in the bank, how much money will she have…”

after:
one year= 500+(10% of 500)= £550
2 years= 550 + (10% of 550)= £605
3 years= 605 + (10% of 605)= £665.50

GENERAL FORMULA… 
       n
1.10  x 500
	1.10= percentage increase
	n= years
	500= money put in

Q

Reverse Percentages-

A

Finding the original price

eg 
cost price = 100%
selling price= 100% + 40%
£63 = 140%
63/140 = 1%
1%= £0.45
100%= $0.45 x 100
=£45

Q

Surds-

A

a to the power of 0 is always 1

surds are numbers like ⎷3 and ⎷4

It is sometimes helpful to write an expression with an integer denominator- RATIONALISING THE DENOMINATOR

e.g. 6/ route 3

6⎷3 = 6 x ⎷3 = 6 ⎷3 = 2 ⎷3
⎷3 x⎷3 3

A surd is a square root which cannot be reduced to a whole number.

⎷ab = ⎷a x ⎷b
⎷a x ⎷a = a

Q

Averages-

A

Median- Arrange smallest to largest, this is then the middle number. If there are two middle numbers its the middle of these numbers.

Mean- All data aded and divide by the number of items.

Mode- Number which occurs most frequently

Range- (Largest value) - (smallest value)= range

Q

Moving Averages

A

To see if there is a trend in the sales figures you can use a moving average

4 point m.a. is most common and involves finding the mean of four quarters

This is then plotted on a graph

Q

Frequency Polygons and scatter graphs-

A

Vertical axis always= frequency in the frequency polygon the boxes of the bar chart are replaced by a line joining the tops of their mid points
discrete data= counting continuos data =measuring
eg. Weak correlation
Always say if it is weak/strong positive/negative or if there is no correlation

Lower quartile

Median

Upper quartile

Highest value

To find lower, median and upper put numbers in order and the first 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4

Q

Expanding Brackets-

A

find common factors

25
Q

Nth term

A

list of numbers= terms in sequence

Find the common difference and the zero term to find out what you have to add and subtract

26
Q

Collecting like terms-

A

4x + 5x -2 -2x +7
if you collect the terms…
7x+5

27
Q

Notation-

A 
a^2= a x a
a^3= a x a x a
multiplying = add the indices
dividing = subtract the indices
only add and subtract ‘ like terms’
28
Q

Direct Proportion-

A

If two quantities are in direct proportion, as one increases, the other increases by the same percentage

y is directly proportionate to x .. y=kx

inverse proportion is when one value increases as the other value decreases
y=k/x

29
Q

Simultaneous equations-

A

2 equations with 2 unknowns
step1: eliminate the unknowns (add or subtract equations)

Put the answer back into the equation

sometimes equations may need to be multiplied

substitution method
rearrange the so “y=…” for example and put that back into the other equation
In graphs- draw lines and the pint where they meet is the answer

30
Q

Quadratic Formula

A

General way to write a quadratic equation is: ax^2 + bx + c= 0

31
Q

Similarity and Congruence:

A

Similar shapes/ figures are identical in shape but not in size
e.g. two circles are always similar corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal.

Congruent shapes are identical in shape and size- they could be rotated or reflected

32
Q

Quadratics

Factorising

A

x^2 + 5x + 6
+ x
2 number which add to make 5 and multiply to make 6

Terms without an x term add to get 0 and mutiny to get the number.
Not all quadratics without an x term can be factorised.

Solving:

Write in the form ax^2 +bx+c=0
Find two numbers which add to get b and multiply to get c
(x )(x )=0 (add in the numbers from 2)
(x )=0
(x )=0
those are the two possibilities and work out and check!

always start facing North and move in a clockwise direction. Angles with less than 100 degrees have a 0 in front to make them a 3 figure bearing i.e. 060 degrees

Q

Circle Theorem

A

The angle between the tangent and the radius is 90 degrees

Q

Vector-

A

has both direction and magnitude (size) -scalar has magnitude only

54
Q

two vectors with the same magnitude and direction are..

A

equal

55
Q

a negative vector means…

A

reversing its direction

56
Q

A scale factor is…

A

a number which scales, or multiplies some quantity.
