   What is a relation? In everyday life we speak of relations between people, such as "is the mother of". In mathematics, a relation is a rule that links elements of one set to elements of another set (or of the same set). A relation is written as a set of ordered pairs (x, y), where x is related to y. The order matters:…

   • What is a function?
   • Function notation, domain and range
   • Inverse functions
   • Graphs of quadratic functions
   • Step, absolute value and piecewise functions
   • Summary

   What is a function? A function is a special relation in which every element of the domain is related to exactly one element of the range . The relation {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 4)} is a function: each x has one y (two x-values may share a y). The relation {(1, 4), (1, 6)} is not a function, because 1 is related to two…

   • Grouped data: classes, boundaries and class marks
   • The mean of grouped data
   • The median and mode of grouped data
   • Cumulative frequency, the ogive and quartiles
   • Summary

   Grouped data In Form Two you found the mean, median and mode of simple data. When there are many values, data are grouped into classes. In Form Three we learn to calculate the measures of central tendency for grouped data and to use cumulative frequency . Class limits and boundaries For the class 20–29, the class…

   Rates A rate compares two quantities of different kinds , such as distance and time (speed in km/h), money and mass (price per kg), or volume and time (litres per minute). For example, a pump that fills 1,800 litres in 45 minutes works at a rate of 1,800 ÷ 45 = 40 litres per minute. Exchange rates are rates used to…
