This paper covers
- Unit 3 differentiation: chain, product and quotient rules on exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions
- Applications of differentiation: rates of change, kinematics, stationary points, concavity, points of inflection and optimisation
- Integration: antidifferentiation of standard forms, reverse chain rule, definite integrals, area under curves and between curves
- Discrete random variables: Bernoulli sequences, the binomial distribution, expected value and variance
- Continuous random variables and the normal distribution: z-score standardisation, technology probabilities and inverse normal (90th percentile delivery-time stimulus)
- Numerical integration via the trapezoidal rule and 2D/3D trigonometry (sine rule, cosine rule, bearings)
- Inferential statistics: sampling distribution of the sample proportion, confidence intervals, margin of error and sample size
- QCAA cognitions across Simple Familiar, Complex Familiar and Complex Unfamiliar bands with written contextual conclusions for evaluate/justify marks
