Pearson Lightbook StarterLightbook Starter is an innovative digital resource powered by Pearson’s award-winning Lightbook technology. It has been developed to help students learn key mathematical concepts, evaluate their understanding and track their progress. ‘Before you begin’ sections assess learner readiness before each chapter topic, while ‘Check-in’ questions can be used to evaluate learner understanding and practice after every chapter section.

Auto-correcting questions are linked to the Progress Tracker dashboard for easy analysis and viewing of results, which are mapped to progression through the Student Book as well as to Australian Curriculum: Mathematics and Victorian Curriculum: Mathematics content descriptions.

Pearson eBookMuch more than just pages on a screen, Pearson eBook is an online or offline version of your Student Book linked to interactive content, rich media resources and other useful content specifically developed for Mathematics. It supports you with appropriate online resources and tools for every section of the Student Book, including videos, eWorked Examples, interactive lessons, worksheets and more. Teacher resources include chapter tests, full teaching programs and curriculum mapping for the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics and for the Victorian Curriculum: Mathematics.

Spot the hypotenuseEquipment required: protractor (optional), coloured pencils, 1 copy of Appendix 2C per student

This 5-minute activity can be used when students’ concentration starts to wane, as a quick break, or as a concluding activity. The aim is for students to practise identifying the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle. The diagram in Appendix 2C shows many right-angled triangles. How many can your students find? Have students trace over any hypotenuse they identify. You could turn this activity into a game where the winner is the student who can correctly identify the most. Encourage your students to use a protractor to check their work or if they aren’t sure whether or not an angle is a right angle (the diagram is drawn to scale).

Which short side is a and which short side is b?The side labels a and b can be interchanged. Emphasise this point to students so that they are confident when labelling all three sides of a right-angled triangle. Show students that they will obtain the same answer to a problem regardless of which side is labelled a and which side is labelled b. Take this discussion further. What alternative pronumerals could be used to replace a and b? What about c? What should one do to solve a problem if a and b are the same size? (See suggested example 4.)

Suggested examples1 Jeanne pays simple interest on her

loan of $3790 at a rate of 2% p.a. for 3 years. How much interest does she pay?

Answer:I = PrTI = 3790 × 0.02 × 3I = $227.40Jeanne paid back $227.40 in simple interest.

2 Marcus borrowed $3400 to buy a boat for 18 months at a rate of 19% p.a. simple interest. How much will he repay in total?

Answer:I = PrTI = $3400 × 0.19 × 1.5I = $969

Total payment = 3400 + 969 = $4369Marcus will pay $4369 for the boat.

Statistics and Probability Pearson Mathematics 9 Chance Chapter 8 Statistics and probability

List all outcomes for two-step chance experiments, both with and without replacement using tree diagrams or arrays. Assign probabilities to outcomes and determine probabilities for events (ACMSP225)

• conducting two-step chance experiments

• using systematic methods to list outcomes of experiments and to list outcomes favourable to an event

• comparing experiments which differ only by being undertaken with replacement or without replacement

8.6 Probability events8.7 Representing probability

Calculate relative frequencies from given or collected data to estimate probabilities of events involving ‘and’ or ‘or’ (ACMSP226)

• using Venn diagrams or two-way tables to calculate relative frequencies of events involving ‘and’, ‘or’ questions

• using relative frequencies to find an estimate of probabilities of ‘and’, ‘or’ events

8.5 Understanding probability8.6 Probability events8.7 Representing probability

Investigate reports of surveys in digital media and elsewhere for information on how data were obtained to estimate population means and medians (ACMSP227)

• investigating a range of data and its sources, for example the age of residents in Australia, Cambodia and Tonga; the number of subjects studied at school in a year by 14-year-old students in Australia, Japan and Timor-Leste

8.1 Investigating data8.2 Interpreting data8.4 Comparing data sets

Data representation and interpretation Chapter 8 Statistics and probability

Identify everyday questions and issues involving at least one numerical and at least one categorical variable, and collect data directly and from secondary sources (ACMSP228)

• comparing the annual rainfall in various parts of Australia, Pakistan, New Guinea and Malaysia

8.1 Investigating data8.2 Interpreting data8.4 Comparing data sets

Construct back-to-back stem-and-leaf plots and histograms and describe data, using terms including ‘skewed’, ‘symmetric’ and ‘bi modal’ (ACMSP282)

• using stem-and-leaf plots to compare two like sets of data such as the heights of girls and the heights of boys in a class

• describing the shape of the distribution of data using terms such as ‘positive skew’, ‘negative skew’ and ‘symmetric’ and ‘bi-modal’

8.3 Statistics from grouped data8.4 Comparing data sets

Compare data displays using mean, median and range to describe and interpret numerical data sets in terms of location (centre) and spread (ACMSP283)

• comparing means, medians and ranges of two sets of numerical data which have been displayed using histograms, dot plots, or stem and leaf plots
