| Why can x = 0 not be plotted on a reciprocal graph? | X = 0 cannot be plotted on a reciprocal graph because if it were in the equation y = 1/x 1/0 is infinite, causing there to be no way to plot it on a graph, because a curve doesn’t cross the y -axis, yet it vertically down the middle |
| What do reciprocal graphs look like when the value of A is bigger than 1? When the value of A is between 0 and 1? And when the value of A is negative? | When the value of A is bigger than 1, the branches move outwards, away from the axis (centre) When the value of A is between 0 and 1, the branches move inwards towards the axis (centre) When the value of A is a negative number, the branches swap columns so they are in the top left and bottom right instead |

| How could a counter example be used in algebraic proof? | A counterexample could be used in algebraic proof if the question asked to disprove: all prime numbers are odd, by saying this statement is false because 2 is a prime number and 2 is even not odd. |
| How can you prove the statement: ‘the difference between two prime numbers is always even’, with a counter example? | If the question asked: prove the statement is wrong: ‘the difference between two prime numbers is always even’, a counter example that could be used is the difference between 2 and 5 is 3, an odd number, so the difference between two prime numbers is not always even. |
| How are identity symbols used to prove algebraic identities are true? | Identity symbols are used to prove algebraic identities are true, by making the left side of the equation look the same as the right because terms cannot be moved from one side of the equation to the other |
| What are the steps for making the left side of the equation look the same as the right? | To make the left side of the equation look like the right, on the left side, expand the brackets, then collect like terms, and if the right side is factorized, factorize the left side to look the same. |

| When will a curve be stretched? | A curve will be stretched when the a in the equation y = af(x), is any number bigger than 1, e.g. if the equation was y = 2f(x) every y value would need to be multiplied by 2/ on the left and right axis. |
| When will a curve be squashed? | A curve will be squashed when a in the equation y = af(x) is any number smaller than 1 such as a fraction, e.g. is the equation was y = 1/3f(x) the curve would be squashed by a 1/3 |
| How do you calculate simultaneous equations? | To calculate simultaneous equations eliminate one variable in both equations by multiplying by a common factor then subtracting the first equation from the second and substituting the answer in one of the two equations to find the other variable |

| What does the equation y + 2x = 5 mean? | The equation y + 2x = 5 means if x = 0, and y = 5, the equation would become y + 2 x 0 = 5, and because 2 x 0 = 2, y = 1, and x = 2 |
| What does the equation f(x) = y stand for? | The equation f(x) = y stand for function(input) = output, where f is not multiplied by x but is simply a label |
| How are f(x) and y interchangeable? | In functions, the input is always before the equals sign and the output can be represented by both f(x) and y, E.g. f(x) = y is the same as y = f(x) |
| How are functions calculated with specific values? | A function would be calculated when given a specific value for example f(4) and an equation such as f(x)=3x + 2, by substituting 4 in the place of any x’s in the function, so for this equation f(x) = 3x + 2 is f(4) = 3x4 + 2 = 14 |
| What are the terms of the input and output in functions? | The term for the input is the domain and the term for the output is the range |
| How are functions plotted on a graph? | Functions come in equations that can be plotted as coordinates by regarding the input and output values as ordered pairs (x,y) |
| What does the vertical line test, test for? | The vertical line test that tests if a graph has more than one output for a single input which would disqualify is as a function |
| How is the vertical line test done? | The vertical line test is done plotting every y and x value for a function and then drawing a vertical line down a graph. The line is moved left and right to see the point where the vertical line intersects with the graph. If the vertical line only intersects at exclusively one point for every value of x in the graph, there is only one output value for every input value, so the graph qualifies as a function. |
| Why does y^2 = x not qualify as a function? | Y^2 = x does not qualify as a function because it does not pass the vertical line test, in the equation y^2 = x, the right x-axis intersects with the vertical line in two places, so this equation has multiple outputs for its single input. |
| What is a composite function? | A composite function is when one function is put into another function. |
| How can one function be put into another function? | If the question asks what f g(x) is, you put one function into another function, to do this find the input (x) Such as x in the equation f (x) = 2x + 1, and then put the second equation of g (x) = x^2 + 1 into the input, so the equation becomes f g (x) = 2 (x^2 + 1) + 1. Now solve and simplify the resultant equation |
| What do you do if a question asks to find g f(x) in simultaneous equations? | If a question asks to find g f(x) in simultaneous equations put the input of the first equation into the second equation, then solve and simplify it |
| What are inverse functions written as? | Inverse functions are written as f ^-1 (x) |
| What is the purpose of inverse functions? | The purpose of inverse functions is to give the input given any output, whereas normal functions gives the output given any input |
| What is f (x) = 2x - 4? | F (x) = 2x - 4 is rearrange to find the input, by letting f (x) = y, This is done by rearranging to y = 2x - 4, then add four: y + 4 = 2x and divide by 2 to make x the subject y + 4 / 2 = x now because the output of y becomes the input y + 4 / 2 = x becomes f^-1 (x) = x + 4 / 2 |
| What is the question: prove ff^-1 (x) = x asking for? | The question: prove ff^-1 (x) = x asks to find the inverse function and then input that answer into the original function |

| How do you do negative and fractional indices? | To do negative and fractional indices, when the number is whole put 1 over it and if the number is a fraction, flip it And in both cases the negative indices then become positive and the expressions are simplified And if an indice is negative and fractional first flip the fraction number then square root it |
| How do you express 8^k x 3^3k, as a power of 6? | Because 8^k and 3^3k do not share the same integer they must be changed to share the integer make them both either X^k or X^3k And because 8 = 2^3, 8^k becomes 2^3k x 3^3k Now because they have the same integer they can be multiplied and = 6^3k – a power of 6 |

| What type of triangle are sine and cosine rules used on? | Sin and Cosine rules are used on any triangle that’s not a right angle |
| How does the sine rule work, and when is the cosine rule used? | When using the sine rule all the angles and sides are labelled A, B and C, and a,b, and c, in which every angle is opposite to its side – of a, b, and c. And it is used when one pair of an angle and side are known e.g. A and a, but only half of another is known e.g. B, to find the other half of b. While the cosine rule is used to find an angle when all three sides are known or when two sides and their included angle is known. |
