5. Exams 1 & 2 (1 bound book permitted & a CAS calculator is required) Exam 1  40 multiple choice questions (13 core, 9 from each of 3 modules)  Total 40 marks Exam 2  1 set of questions from each of the Core and 3 modules  Each set of questions worth 15 marks  Total 60 marks

6. Outcome tests There are 4 x 45 minutes outcome tests in class. Each is done before a SAC. They provide feedback on student’s progress. They will be good practices before SACs.

7. Want an “S” not “N”?  Complete all outcome questions.  Pass 40% on each outcome test.  Have at least 80% of attendance.

8. Failure to satisfy the outcome requirements above Letters sent home Resit the tests May cause you to drop out of the subject!

9. Absent from a lesson? Catch up with the lesson yourself

10. Miss a SAC or an outcome test? Bring A medical certificate Do the test at an arranged time

11. What to prepare? A textbook : Essential Further Maths 3 &4 CAS (Enhanced 4 th edition – Evans ) A CAS calculator A 20 page Display Folder One binder book for class notes Several binder books for completion of set exercises from text book

12. Any questions?

13. Holiday Homework Complete the following questions from your textbook: All working out must be shown  Ex 1A (Categorical and Numerical Data) – Nos 1- 4  Ex 1B (Categorical Data display) – Nos 1 - 8  Ex 1C (Displaying Numerical Data) – Nos 1 - 9  Ex 1D (Histograms) – Nos 1 - 4  Ex 1E (Dot plots and Stem & leaf plots) – No 1 - 8

14. Ch 1 – Organising & Displaying Data CLASSIFYING DATA Categorical: a category is recorded when the data is collected. Examples of categorical data include gender, nationality, occupation, shoe size. Numerical: when data is collected a number is recorded. The data is measured or counted.

15. Numerical Data Two types of numerical data Discrete: the numbers recorded are distinct values, often whole numbers and usually the data comes from counting. Examples include number of students in a class, pages in a book. Continuous: any number on a continuous line is recorded; usually the data is produced by measuring to any desired level of accuracy. Examples include volume of water consumed, life of a battery.

16. Q1: Answer True or False The age of my car is numerical data True False

17. Q2: Answer True or False The colour of my car is categorical data True False

18. Q3: Answer True or False The number of cars in the car park would be considered numerical & continuous data. True False

19. Q4: Answer True or False If I rate my driving experience of some test cars between one and ten, this is considered numerical & discrete data. True False This is an example of categorical data

20. Q5: Answer True or False Continuous numerical data can be measured True False

21. Q6: Answer True or False If 1 = satisfied, 2 = indifferent & 3 = dissatisfied, I am collecting categorical data True False

22. WARNING It is not the Variable NAME itself that determines whether the data is Numerical or Categorical It is the WAY the DATA for the VARIABLE is recorded Eg: weight in kgs Eg: weight recorded as 1 = underweight, 2 + normal weight, etc

23. Univariate Data Summarising data Frequency tables: may be used with both categorical and numerical data. Class intervals are used to group continuous numerical data or to group discrete data where there is a large range of values.

24. Categorical Data FAVOURITE TEAMFREQUENCY% FREQUENCY Collingwood 1212/35 * 100 = 34% Essendon 514% Bulldogs 1543% Carlton 39% TOTAL 35100%

25. Categorical Data Bar Graph / Column Graph

26. Percentaged Segmented Bar Chart

27. Describing a Bar Chart We focus on 2 things: The presence of a DOMINANT Category in the distribution – given by the Mode The order of Occurrence of each category and its relative importance REPORT – where you comment on features. Use percentages to support any conclusions

28. Organising & Displaying Numerical Data Group the DATA Guidelines for choosing the number of Intervals: Usually use between 5 and 15 intervals

29. Numerical Data NUMBER OF SIBLINGS FREQUENCYPERCENTAGE FREQUENCY 022/25*100 = 8% 1416% 21248% 3728% 25100%

30. How has forming a Frequency Table helped? Orders the data Displays the data in compact form Shows a pattern – way the data values are distributed Helps us to identify the mode

31. Numerical Data Histogram There are no spaces between the columns of a histogram

32. Numerical Data Stem and Leaf Plots Stem and Leaf Plots display the distribution of numerical data (both discrete and continuous) as well as the actual data values An ordered stem and leaf plot is obtained by ordering the numbers in the leaf in ascending order. A stem and leaf plot should have at least 5 numbers in the stem

33. Numerical Data Stem and Leaf Plots Stem Leaf 201 2 2 5 6 210 1 2 222 3 8 23 240 2 24 0 represents 240

34. Numerical Data Describing a distribution Shape Generally one of three types Symmetric Positively Skewed Negatively Skewed

35. Numerical Data Shape Symmetric Symmetric (same shape either side of the centre)

36. Numerical Data Shape: Positively Skewed Positively skewed : tails off to the right

37. Numerical Data Shape: Negatively Skewed Negatively skewed : tails off to the left

38. Centre The centre as measured by the Median is the value which has the same number of scores above as below. The centre as measured by the Mean is the value which is equal to the sum of the data divided by n The centre as measured by the Mode is the value which has the highest frequency

39. Spread The maximum and minimum values should be used to calculate the range. Range = Maximum Value – Minimum Value

40. Outliers Outliers are extreme values well away from the majority of the data Outlier

42. Good luck with your holiday homework It is a good idea to do this before school finishes so if you get stuck you can ask us.
