Achievement objective M7-10

In a range of meaningful contexts, students will be engaged in thinking mathematically and statistically. They will solve problems and model situations that require them to:

  • apply differentiation and anti-differentiation techniques to polynomials.

Indicators

  • Develops the rules for differentiation of polynomials using understanding of gradient function and technology (graphics calculator or computer).
  • Solves differentiation problems involving:
    • rates of change
    • finding points where gradient has a particular value
    • finding the equation of the tangent to a curve at a point
    • finding local maxima/minima of a function
    • kinematics.
  • Develops rules for anti-differentiation of polynomials using understanding of gradient function and technology (graphics calculator or computer).
  • Solves anti-differentation problems involving:
    • finding a family of curves with a given gradient
    • finding the constant of anti-differentiation
    • simple polynomial differential equations (not including separation of variables).
  • Make links with graphs M7-9.
  • See key mathematical ideas on NZmaths.

Progression

M7-10 links from NA6-4, GM6-3 and to M8-11, M8-12.
