How to use this book

How to use this book


This workbook provides questions for you to practise what you hove
learned in class. There is a unit to match each unit in your Learner's Book.
Each exercise is divided into three parts:

• Focus: these questions help you to master the basics


• Practice: these questions help you to become more confident
in using what you have learned
• Challenge: these questions will make you think more deeply.

You might not need to work on all three parts. Your teacher will tell you
which parts to do.
You will also find these features: , ....
bisect decompose
Important words that you will use. diagonal justify
parallel trapezia

Worked example 1
average bimodal mean
A shop is collecting data to find out the age median mode range
range of their customers. These are the
ages in years of the customers who visited
the shop during one hour.
43,54,67,22,43,18,19,61,59
What is the range of these ages?

The highest age is 67. Find the highest and lowest ages.
The lowest age is 18.
67-18 = 49 Subtract the lowest from the highest.

The range is 49 years. Remember to write the range with the correct units.

c Tick the true descriptions of Jenny's and Carrie's scores.


Jenny has a higher range of scores, so she must have scored
higher than Carrie.


Carrie's mean is lower than Jenny, so Jenny scored better
than Carrie in every test.


Jenny's mean score was higher, but her scores were less consistent.


Carrie's range is lower, so her scores were less spread out.

Carrie's mean score was lower than Jenny's.
