Approaches to the WACE 2011 Mathematics 3C3D Exam

This document presents an approach or approaches to the 2011 WACE Mathematics 3C3D Examination. These approaches incorporate the use of CAS as well as ‘by hand’ solution methods. At times two alternative methods are presented. The providing of two solutions is intended to encourage a conversation between teachers and students about the most deserning and efficient way to tackle the mathematics presented in this form of assessment.


CP042 Eliminate Function

Eliminate one variable from an equation using another equation.
Example: If x=8-2t and y=6t-1 find an expression for y in terms of x.


CP043 Creating User Defined Variables

Create your own user functions.
Examples (i) f(x)=1/x or (ii) Ckh2ms to convert speeds from km/h to m/s



CP071 Define Function with Many Variables

Create and use a function with many variables. Also edit a user defined function in the program editor.



CP307 Simultaneous Equations In Main

Solve simultaneously the equations 3y – 2x = 5 and x + 2y – 8 = 0 graphically using both Main and Graph windows.
