1 Discovering Mathematics Week 3 Unit 2: Mathematical Models Unit 3: Numbers

2 Unit 2: Mathematical Models Using Formulas o From words to letters o Writing formulas concisely o Constructing your own formulas Inequalities: – Notation for working with inequalities – Illustrating inequalities on a number line

3 3. Using Formulas In every day life, many things are represented by symbols. Give examples. Solving a problem in mathematics often involves using a formula. For example: distance (d) = average speed (s) x time (t)  To find the value of d, take the value of s and multiply by the value of t, this process is called substitution. (give examples)

4 Using formula

5

6 Writing formulas concisely

7 Substituting negative numbers

8 Try this examples

9 Constructing your own formulas You can construct a formula by following the three steps: -first, identify the subject of the formula. -Next, find the relationship between the variables. -Finally, write down all the details of the formula. Let us solve some examples:

10 Construct your formula

11 4. Inequalities

12 Examples: Put the correct sign ( ): 1- 12 __32- -2.5 __ -4.5 Students: solve activity 26 and 26

13 UNIT 3. Numbers Natural numbers Rational numbers Irrational numbers and real numbers Ratios

14 1. Natural Numbers

15 Multiples:

16 Common multiples A common multiples of two or more numbers is a number that is a multiple of all of them. Multiple of 6: 6, 12,18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48,.. Multiple of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56,.. Number 24 appears in both multiples, then 24 is a common multiple of 6 and 8. What else?

17 Lowest common multiple The lowest common multiple (LCM) of two or more numbers is the smallest number that is a multiple of all of them. -What is the lowest common multiple for numbers 4 and 6? Multiple of 4= 4,8,12,16,.. Multiple of 6= 6,12,18,24,30,.. Then, LCM = 12 -Solve activity 3, page 122.

18 Factors -A natural number that divides exactly into a second natural number is called a factor or divisor of the second number. -Find all the factors of 28 -First pair is 1, 28 -Second pair is 2, 14 -Third pair is 4, 7 -Try 5, 5 is not a factor. 6 is not a factor either -Try 7, yes it is 7 and 4 and it is already there, so stop here. The factors of 28 is 1,2,4,7,14 and 28 Find the factors of number 45

19 Common factor A common factor of two or more numbers is a number that is a factor of all of them. The highest common factor (HCF) of two or more numbers is the largest number that is a factor of all of them. Find the HCF for numbers 12 and 24 the factors of 12 = 1,2,3,4,6,12 the factors of 24 = 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24 the highest common factors = 12

20 Powers

21 Dividing numbers in index form

22 Raising numbers in index form to powers

23 Rational numbers

24 Multiplying fractions
