Distributive property: Multiplying a number by a sum of two numbers is the same as multiplying the first
number by each number in the sum and then finding the sum of the products. For example, 5(a+b) = 5a+5b
Opposite operation: an oper4ation that “undoes” a given operation. For example, multiplication and
division are opposite operations, and addition and subtraction are opposite operations.
Algebra tiles: tiles that can be used to represent numbers and variables. For example, a small white square
tile represents +1, a small black square tile represents -1, and a white rectangular tile represents x.
Ordered pair: Two numbers in order; on a coordinate grid, the first number is the horizontal coordinate of
a point, and the second number is the vertical coordinate of the point. For example, (2, 4) is an ordered
pair.
Table of values: A way of reorganizing a relation in a table; ordered pairs can be read from a table of
values
Linear relation: A relation that has a straight – line graph. For example, y = 2x-3 is a linear relation.
Sample answers: expand, discrete data, isolate, solve

bars in the bar graph to read data and compare data values. 2) c) It is easier to draw the bar graph. It is
more difficult to draw the many simples and half of a simple for the pictograph.

3) a) 2006 b) 1996 c) The team would have more than 16 wins in the next year because the line graph
shows and upward trend over the years. d) No. Since the data change over time, people would not be
interested in knowing parts of the whole. 4) a) The data are parts of a whole. The sizes of sectors can be
compared to make conclusions. b) 29%+33%=62% c) Yes, you could use a bar graph, but it is not as
appropriate as a circle graph, which is best a showing parts of a whole.

Number of students in a Grade 8 class from 5 different areas of origin. 6) a) I can use a circle graph or a
bar graph since the data do not change over time. With the circle graph, I can compare parts of a whole.
b) A line graph and a double bar graph are not appropriate because the data do not change over time and
there is only one set of data.

1) Sample Answers: a) The bar for Boys because it is much wider and the type for “Boys” is larger. b)
Make the 2 bars the same width and use the same type size for the 2 labels “Girls” and “Boys”. 2) a) The
sector for “ride” is separated from the rest of the graph and it has the largest type size. b) Keep all sectors
within the circle and keep the type size consistent for all similar labels. c) Burton is most popular. The
sector representing Burton has the largest sector angle, and 35% is the greatest percent.

3) Sample Answers: a) Hayden’s graph appears to show a greater increase in marks. b) Vanessa: 90% -
75% = 15%; Hayden: 80% - 68%=12% c) The scale on the vertical axis of Hayden’s graph starts at 48%,
which exaggerates the increase in marks. d) To make affair comparison, make the scales on the vertical
axis of the two graphs the same. e) Hayden is more consistent from term to term with a smaller range of
marks between 64% and 80%.
p.174
4) Sample Answers: a) I would use Hayden’s graph because he appears to have improved greatly based on
the steepness of the lines on his graph. b) Vanessa: 90% - 70% = 20%; Hayden: 80% - 64% = 16%
c) The result is different from the impression that the graphs give me. So, my choice was incorrect.
5) a) 0 – 1 city b) Sample Answer: The width of the symbol for 10 or more is about the same width as the
row of symbols form 2 – 3 cities, which represents 8 students. c) Sample Answer: I would agree with
Marie because her number is based on the key of the pictograph – 1 symbol represents 2 students.
d) Sample Answers: Make all symbols the same size and line up all the rows on the left edge for easy
counting of symbols and comparing lengths of rows.

Appropriate graph: graph with certain features that enables questions to be answered or information to be
drawn easily from the displayed data. For example, a circle graph shows the parts of a whole better than a
line graph does.
Misrepresentation of data: display of data in a way that creates a false impression, leading to incorrect
conclusions or decisions to be made. For example, a wider bar in a bar graph creates the impression that
the data value is greater than it actually is.
Discrete data: data that can be counted and do not change over time. For example, the numbers of
students in several classes are discrete data. The heights of a person are not discrete data since the height of
the person changes over time.
Possible outcomes: possible results of an experiment or action. For example, when a 6 – sided die with a
number on each face is rolled. There are 6 possible outcomes, even if some numbers on the die are the
same.
Probability of an event: the number of outcomes of an event written as a fraction of all possible
outcomes. For example, there are 6 possible outcomes for rolling a regular die. The probability of rolling a
1
5 is 6 .
Independent events: two events in which the outcomes of one do not affect the outcomes of the other. For
example, the outcomes of tossing a coin will not affect the outcomes of rolling a die. Tossing a coin and
rolling a die are independent events.
Sample answers: bar graph, line graph, circle graph, pictograph, double bar graph, scale, trend, tree
diagram.

1) Sample Answers: The line graph is the best since the data change over time. The circle graph is the least
appropriate as the data are not parts of a whole. The bar graph could work but it may not show the trend as
well as a line graph. 2) a) Sample Answer: The circle graph is easier to use. Ms. Papas can simply write the
percent as a fraction. The bar graph requires an extra step of finding the total. b) Sample Answer: The
height of the bar for D in the bar graph provides the answer. The circle graph does not have any actual
number that can answer the question.

3) a) 8 students b) 20 students c) Sample Answer: The 2 large symbols for the Toronto Blue Jays give the
false impression that the team is more popular than the Boston Red Sox. 4) a) Sample Answer: The total
times for the 3 players seem to be very close. B) Sample Answer: The total time for Wesley seems to be
much less than those for Hartley and Brandon. C) Sample answer: The second graph has its vertical scale
note starting at 0 and uses a larger scale that exaggerates the difference among the penalty times.

6) Sample Answer: The events in part c) are not independent events. Removing a second card from the
