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:

  • extend powers to include integers and fractions.

Indicators

  • Uses integer powers in solving problems.
  • Uses number knowledge, with fractional powers, to find square and cube roots that generate rational solutions, for example: (4/9)^0.5=√(4/9)=2/3.
  • Works with numbers in standard form and moves flexibly between standard form and ordinary form.
  • Uses number knowledge and technology when solving problems.
  • Makes links with solving equations NA6-5 and generalised properties of operations NA6-6.
  • See key mathematical ideas on NZmaths.
