direct proportion If two quantities are in direct proportion, as one increases, the other increases by the same percentage. If y is directly proportional to x, this can be written as y ∝ x If y is directly proportional to x. When x = 12 then y = 3 Find the constant of proportionality and the value of x when y = 8. We know that y is proportional to x so y = kx We also know that when x = 12 then y = 3 To find the value of k substitute the values y = 3 and x = 12 into y = kx 3 = k × 12 So k = 3/12 = 1/4 To find the value of x , when y = 8 substitute y = 8 and k = 1/4 into y = kx 8 = (1/4) x So x = 32 when y = 8
indirect proportion Inverse proportion is when one value increases as the other value decreases. y is inversely proportional to x. When y = 3, x = 12 . Find the constant of proportionality, and the value of x when y = 8. y ∝ 1/x y = k/x So xy = k Substitute the values x = 12 and y = 3 into xy = k 3 × 12 = 36 So k = 36 To find the value of x when y = 8, substitute k = 36 and y = 8 into xy = k 8x = 36 So x = 4.5
Straight line y ∝ x y = kx This equation gives us a straight line. The gradient of the line is k.
Quadratic y ∝ x2 y = kx2 This equation gives us a curve. The larger the value of k, the steeper the graph.
Cubic y ∝ x3 y = kx3
Square root y ∝square root of x y = ksquare root of x You have similar shaped curves for any powers between 0 and 1. Again, increasing k will make the graph steeper.
Inverse proportion y ∝ 1/x ² y = k/x ² Inverse proportion leads to curved graphs.
surds square root of ab = square root of a x square root of b square root of a x square root of a = a Simplify square root of 12 over square root of 6 Answer square root of 12 over square root of 6 = square root of 12 over 6 (in general square root of a over square root of b = square root of a over b) square root of 2
equations with fractions How do we solve the equation x/2 − 4 = 3? One way is to multiply everything by 2: x/2 − 4 = 3 x - 8 = 6 x = 14 Or, alternatively, add 4 and then multiply both sides by 2: x/2 − 4 = 3 x/2 = 7 x = 14

factorising ( x + 2 ) ( x + 5 ) = x2 + 7x + 10 ( x + 2 ) ( x + 3 ) = x2 + 5x + 6 ( x - 3 ) ( x - 5 ) = x 2 - 8x + 15 ( x + 6 ) ( x - 5 ) = x2 + x - 30 ( x - 6 ) ( x + 5 ) = x2 - x - 30
quadratic equations To solve a quadratic equation, the first step is to write it in the form: ax2 + bx + c = 0. Then factorise the equation Solve the equation: x2 - 9x + 20 = 0 Solution First, factorise the quadratic equation x2- 9x + 20 = 0 Find two numbers which add up to 9 and multiply to give 20. These numbers are 4 and 5. (x - 4) (x - 5) = 0 Now find the value x so that when these brackets are multiplied together the answer is 0. This means either (x - 4) = 0 or (x - 5) = 0 So x = 4 or x = 5. You can check these answers by substitutuing 4 and 5 in to the equation: x2- 9x + 20 Substituting 4 gives: 42 - 9 × 4 + 20 = 16 - 36 + 20 = 0 Substituting 5 gives: 52 - 9 × 5 + 20 = 25 - 45 + 20 = 0
completing the square This is another way to solve a quadratic equation if the equation will not factorise. It is often convenient to write an algebraic expression as a square plus another term. The other term is found by dividing the coefficient of x by 2, and squaring it. Rewrite x2 + 6x as a square plus another term. The coeffient of x is 6. Dividing 6 by 2 and squaring it gives 9. x2 + 6x = (x2 + 6x + 9) - 9 = (x + 3)2 - 9
quadratic formula Solve 2x2 - 5x - 6 = 0 Here a = 2, b = -5, c = -6

To find the area of the large triangle, you will need to first find the linear/length scale factor as the Step 1. In general to find the scale factor we divide the large quantity with the small quantity. Scale factor = BIG/SMALL =6/4 =1.5 Then Step 2 we would find the Area scale factor by squaring the linear scale factor; ASF = LSF2 =1.52 = 2.25 Step 3 we would multiple the area scale factor with the small area to find the area for the large triangle. Area = 12 x 2.25 = 27cm2
A taxi firm charges £0.50 per mile plus a fixed charge of £2.00. Write down a formula for the cost (C) of hiring this taxi to travel 'n' miles. Solution It costs £2 + £0.50 to travel 1 mile. It costs £2 + 2 x £0.50 to travel 2 miles. It costs £2 + 3 x £0.50 to travel 3 miles. So travelling for 'n' miles will cost £2 + n x £0.50. The formula is C = £2 + (n x £0.50).
Collecting like terms To simplify an expression, we collect like terms. Look at the expression: 4x + 5x -2 - 2x + 7 To simplify: The x terms can be collected together to give 7x. The numbers can be collected together to give 5. So 4x + 5x -2 - 2x + 7 simplified is 7x + 5.
(2x + 5) squared (2x + 5) (2x + 5) = 4x squared + 20x + 25
multiplying out brackets Multiply out: 3(4x - 7) First multiply: 3 × 4x = 12x Then multiply: 3 × -7 = - 21 Therefore: 3(4x - 7) = 12x - 21
multiplying out negatives Multiply out the expression: -3(2n - 8) First, multiply -3 × 2n = - 6n Then multiply -3 × -8 = 24 -6n + 24 Therefore, -3(2n - 8) = - 6n + 24
multiplying out 2 brackets Multiply out these two brackets: (x + 4) (x + 3) Multiply everything in the first bracket by the second bracket: x (x + 3) + 4 (x + 3) = x2 + 3x + 4x + 12 = x2 + 7x + 12

solving inverse equations Here is how to solve 2a + 3 = 7 using inverses. 2a + 3 = 7 Undo the + 3 by subtracting 3 2a + 3 - 3 = 7 - 3 2a = 4 Then undo the multiply by 2 by dividing by 2 - again on both sides 2a ÷ 2 = 4 ÷ 2 The answer is: a = 2
unknowns on both sides of the equation Solve the equation 3b + 4 = b + 12, and find the value of b. Answer First, you need to get all the b terms on the same side of the equation. Subtract b from both sides. 3b - b + 4 = 12 Then simplify. 2b + 4 = 12 Subtract 4 from both sides. 2b = 8 To find the value of b, divide both sides by 2. b = 4
equations with brackets Solve the equation: 3(b + 2) = 15 3(b + 2) = 15 Multiply out the brackets. Remember, everything inside the brackets gets multiplied by 3. 3 × b + 3 × 2 = 15 When you have multiplied out the brackets you get: 3b + 6 = 15 Next, undo the + 6. In other words, do the inverse and subtract 6 from both sides. 3b + 6 - 6 = 15 - 6 So 3b = 9
trial and improvement Find the answer to the equation x3 – 2x = 25 to one decimal place. First we'll try: x = 3 33 - (2 x 3) 3 x 3 x 3 - (2 x 3) 27 - 6 = 21; too small even if the answer is to 1 decimal place, trial an answer with more than 1 decimal place
simultaneous equations Solve these simultaneous equations and find the values of x and y. Equation 1: 2x + y = 7 Equation 2: 3x - y = 8 Add the two equations to eliminate the ys: 2x + y = 7 3x - y = 8 ------------ 5x = 15 x = 3 Now you can put x = 3 in either of the equations. Substitute x = 3 into the equation 2x + y = 7: 6 + y = 7 y = 1 So the answers are x = 3 and y = 1
solving inequalities Solve the expression 3x - 7 < 8 3x - 7 < 8 Then add 7 to both sides, to cancel out the -7: 3x < 15 Next, simplify the inequality by dividing both sides by the number in front of x - in this case 3. x < 5
double inequalities Solve the inequality -4 < 2x - 6 < 12 Add 6 to all parts: 2 < 2x < 18 Divide all parts by 2: 1 < x < 9

quadratic sequences If the difference between the terms changes, this is called a quadratic sequence. If you use the formula n^2 + n to make a sequence, it means that: When n = 1 you get 1^2 + 1 = 2 When n = 2 you get 2^2 + 2 = 6 When n = 3 you get 3^2 + 3 = 12 When n = 4 you get 4^2 + 4 = 20 - giving the sequence 2, 6, 12, 20.

The probability of three heads is: P (H H H) = 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/8 P (2 Heads and a Tail) = P (H H T) + P (H T H) + P (T H H) = 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 + 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 + 1/2 × 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/8 + 1/8 + 1/8 = 3/8
Amit is 12 years old. His brother, Arun, is 9. Their grandfather gives them £140, which is to be divided between them in the ratio of their ages. How much does each of them get? The ratio of their ages is 12:9. We can simplify this. Dividing by 3 gives 4:3. So Amit gets 4 parts, and Arun gets 3. This means that the money has to be divided into 7 parts (4 + 3). £140 ÷ 7 = £20, so 1 part is £20. Amit gets 4 parts: 4 × £20 = £80. Arun gets 3 parts: 3 × £20 = £60.
standard form 15 000 000 = 1.5 × 10 000 000 This can be rewritten as: 1.5 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 = 1. 5 × 10^7
adding and subtracting standard form 4.5 × 10^4 + 6.45 × 10^5 = 45,000 + 645,000 = 690,000 = 6.9 × 10^5
multiplying and dividing standard form To multiply powers you add, eg, 10^5 × 10^3 = 10^8 To divide powers you subtract, eg, 10^5 ÷ 10^3 = 10^2

We are given angle A and side AB. AB is the hypotenuse. BC is opposite angle A. Therefore we use the formula: sin = opposite / hypotenuse sin 30 = BC / 7 Multiply both sides by 7 7 x sin30 = BC Using a calculator we get BC = 3.5cm
The answer is 4.77cm (3 sf). Can you see that PQ is opposite the given angle and that QR is adjacent to it? Use the formula: tan = opposite / adjacent tan50 = PQ / 4 4 × tan50 = PQ PQ = 4.77 (3 sf)
We are given angle Z XZ is adjacent to angle Z. YZ is the hypotenuse. Therefore we use the formula: cos = adjacent / hypotenuse cos 25 = 5 over YZ This time our unknown side (YZ) is the denominator. If we multiply both sides by YZ, we get: YZ x cos 25 = 5 over YZ x YZ YZ x cos25 = 5 Now we can divide both sides by cos25: YZ x cos 25 over cos 25 = 5 over 25 YZ = 5 over cos 25 Using a calculator: YZ = 5 ÷ 0.9063 = 5.52cm (3 sf)
AC is adjacent to angle C. BC is the hypotenuse. So we use the formula: cos = adjacent / hypotenuse cosC = 5/7 To calculate C we need to find the inverse of cos (INV cos or SHIFT cos): C = Inv cos(5/7) Using a calculator: C = 44.4°

R = 25.4° Using the sine we can write: sinR over 4 = sin75 over 9 Multiplying both sides by 4, we get sinR = sin75 over 9 x 4 = 0.4293... SO R = inv sin(0.4293) R = 25.4° (1dp)
the cosine rule
