16 different questions on linear graphs.

16 different questions on linear graphs.

Added quite a few new questions to the linear graphs unit today.

The screenshot is from a one-click mixed exercise.

If you need a bunch of ratio table practice where the scalar is a fraction, this resource might be useful.

Why Prime Numbers Matter A journey through their history, uses and power

Prime numbers look simple, but they’ve shaped maths, history, & even the security of the digital world.
In this week's Little Bit of Maths substack, I explore where they came from, why they matter, and how the indivisible quietly underpins modern life.

Using Artificial Intelligence to Enhance Mathematics Resources: Checks for understanding I will share some ideas on how I have found AI can support in checks for understanding in the secondary Mathematics classroom.

I've written a second post on using AI in the Maths classroom to aid student learning, this time in generating checks for understanding. May give you some useful ideas

Here is a sketch of y= f(x)

A curve with turning points at 
(2,5) - marked in pink
And (4,-3) - marked in orange

Here is a sketch of y= f(x) A curve with turning points at (2,5) - marked in pink And (4,-3) - marked in orange

Show me:
β€’ a sketch of y = 2f(x)
β€’ a sketch of y= f(2x)
β€’ a sketch of y= f(x) + 3
β€’ The equation of this curve
[Turning points are now at (2,0) and (4,-8)]
β€’ The coordinates of the pink point on y= f(-x)
β€’ The coordinates of the orange
point on y = f(x -4)

Show me: β€’ a sketch of y = 2f(x) β€’ a sketch of y= f(2x) β€’ a sketch of y= f(x) + 3 β€’ The equation of this curve [Turning points are now at (2,0) and (4,-8)] β€’ The coordinates of the pink point on y= f(-x) β€’ The coordinates of the orange point on y = f(x -4)

β€’ A possible value of K so that y= f(x) + k only has l root
β€’ The range of values of k so that y= f(x) +K has 3 roots
β€’ A possible value of K so that
y = f(x+k) has both negative
and positive roots

β€’ A possible value of K so that y= f(x) + k only has l root β€’ The range of values of k so that y= f(x) +K has 3 roots β€’ A possible value of K so that y = f(x+k) has both negative and positive roots

Some whiteboard questions to revise graph transformations with Y12 #ALevelMaths.
The final 3 were inspired by one of the questions from @mr-man-maths.bsky.social’s MathsConf talk, that was apparently badly answered last summer. #MathsToday
