2. Volume Scale factor= (length scale factor)3
Direct Proportion
1. y oc x
2. y= kx
3. Inverse Proportion
  1. y oc 1/x
  2. y= k/x
Negative and fractional indicies
1. 2 to the power of -1= 1/2 to the power of 1= 0.5
  1. Rule: a to the -n= 1/a to the power of n
  2. 5, square root, n= n 1/5
Equation of a straight line
1. y= mx + c
  1. m= gradient
  2. c= where it crosses the y axis (y intercept)
Factorise expressions of the form x2-b2
1. Rule: x2-a2 factorises to (x+a)(x-a)
Reverse Percentages
1. Original amount= new amount/ multiplier
2. New amount= original amount x multiplier
Midpoint of a line
1. For coordinates (a,b) and (c,d)...
  1. (a+c divided by 2, b+d divided by 2)
Quartiles
1. median= half way
2. upper quartile= 3/4

Frequency Density
1. Frequency/ width of group
Upper and Lower bounds
1. When multiplying--> to find upper bound= multiply the upper bounds. To find lower bound, multiply by lower bounds
2. When dividing--> to find upper bound= divide the upper bound by the lower bound. To find lower bound= divide the lower bound by the upper bound
Sine Rule
1. a/ SinA= b/SinB= c/SinC
2. SinA/a = SinB/b = SinC/c
3. Cosine Rule
