Q

Finding the quadratic equation from a graph

A

Factorised form = x-intercept + point –> y = (x-a)(x-b)
Expanded form = any 3 points –> y = ax^2 + bx + c
–> substitute x-intercept values for a + b
–> add lettered variable “k” after y
–> solve for “k”
–> rearrange equation to y = k(x-a)(x-b)

A

can take any numerical value within a range and is often a result of measuring

49
Q

Measures of spread

  • range
  • IQR
  • Standard deviation
A

range = max value - min value
IQR = Upper quartile - lower quartile
Standard deviation = use calc

50

A
  1. calculate mean of x and mean of y
  2. plot the mean point of x-mean and x-y on a scatter plot
  3. draw a line through mean point which best fits the trend of the data

H1 = x and y are not independant
52
Q

Expected values

A

Var = stat exp.matrix

53
Q

When do you reject or accept the hypothesis?

A

If chi>k –> reject H0

If chi accept H0

54
Q

When are two events independent

A

If Pr (A ^ B) = Pr (A) x Pr (B)

55
Q

When are two events dependant

A
If Pr (A then B) = Pr (A) x Pr (B given A has occured)
--> Pr (B/A) = Pr (B intersection A) / Pr (A)
56

other rate problems can be treated the same way as those involving time
–> E.g: the cost of manufacturing x items has the cost function of C (x) dollars.

81
Q

How to work out optimisation problems

A
  1. draw a large clear diagram of the situation (shape)
    - -> create a formula for the volume of the shape
    - –> E.g: 4000 = x^2y
  2. construct a formula with the variable to be optimised as the subject
    - -> E.g: A(x) = x^2 + 16000x^-1
  3. Find the derivative and fine the value of x where it is zero
    - -> E.g: A’(x) = 2x - 16000x^-2
    - -> E.g:
  4. show using a sign diagram or a graphical test that you have a maximum or a minimum
