📚 Year 9 Essential Maths Book 9S: Core Topics and Exam Practice | 九年级 Essential Maths Book 9S:核心主题与考试练习
This guide summarises the core skills in Essential Maths Book 9S. It focuses on the key Year 9 topics that build a strong foundation for GCSE Mathematics, including number work, algebra, geometry, statistics and probability.
本指南总结了 Essential Maths Book 9S 中的核心技能。它聚焦九年级的关键主题,为 GCSE 数学奠定坚实基础,涵盖数字运算、代数、几何、统计与概率。
1. Number Skills: Place Value, Decimals and Rounding | 数字技能:位值、小数与四舍五入
Place value tells you the value of a digit by its position. In 4.37, the 3 is worth 3/10 and the 7 is worth 7/100.
位值表示一个数字因其位置而具有的值。在 4.37 中,3 表示十分之三,7 表示百分之七。
Rounding to decimal places means keeping a fixed number of digits after the decimal point. To round 3.467 to 2 d.p., look at the third decimal digit: it is 7, so round up to 3.47.
四舍五入到小数位表示保留小数点后固定位数。将 3.467 保留到 2 位小数时,看第三位小数:它是 7,因此进位为 3.47。
Rounding to significant figures focuses on the first non-zero digit. 3.467 to 2 s.f. is 3.5 because the third significant digit is 6, so the 4 rounds up.
四舍五入到有效数字关注第一个非零数字。3.467 保留到 2 位有效数字为 3.5,因为第三位有效数字是 6,所以 4 进位。
3.467 ≈ 3.47 (2 d.p.) and 3.467 ≈ 3.5 (2 s.f.)
2. Fractions, Decimals and Percentages | 分数、小数与百分比
To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator. For example, 3/8 = 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375.
要将分数转换为小数,用分子除以分母。例如,3/8 = 3 ÷ 8 = 0.375。
Percentage change compares the actual change to the original amount. A percentage increase or decrease is always calculated using the original value.
百分比变化将实际变化量与原始量进行比较。百分比增加或减少始终使用原始值进行计算。
Percentage change = (new value − original value) ÷ original value × 100%
For reverse percentage problems, divide by the original multiplier. If a price increases by 20% to £60, the multiplier is 1.2, so the original price was £60 ÷ 1.2 = £50.
对于逆向百分比问题,除以原始乘数。如果价格增加 20% 后为 60 英镑,则乘数为 1.2,因此原始价格为 60 ÷ 1.2 = 50 英镑。
3. Directed Numbers and Order of Operations | 有向数与运算顺序
When adding or subtracting directed numbers, remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding. For example, 5 − (−2) = 5 + 2 = 7.
在加减有向数时,记住减去一个负数等同于加上一个正数。例如,5 − (−2) = 5 + 2 = 7。
For multiplication and division, two same signs give a positive answer, and two different signs give a negative answer.
对于乘法和除法,两个相同符号得正,两个不同符号得负。
Always apply BIDMAS or BODMAS: Brackets, Indices, Division and Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction. So 2 + 3 × 4 = 14, because multiplication comes before addition.
始终应用 BIDMAS 或 BODMAS:括号、指数、除法和乘法、加法和减法。因此 2 + 3 × 4 = 14,因为乘法先于加法。
−4 × −6 = 24 and 2 + 3 × 4 = 2 + 12 = 14
4. Algebraic Expressions and Simplification | 代数表达式与化简
Collect like terms by adding or subtracting the coefficients of the same variable. For example, 3x + 2y − x + 4y = 2x + 6y.
通过加减相同变量的系数来合并同类项。例如,3x + 2y − x + 4y = 2x + 6y。
Expanding brackets means multiplying each term inside the bracket by the term outside. To expand double brackets, multiply every term in the first bracket by every term in the second.
展开括号意味着将括号内的每一项乘以括号外的项。展开双括号时,将第一个括号中的每一项乘以第二个括号中的每一项。
a(b + c) = ab + ac and (x + 2)(x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6
Factorising is the reverse of expanding. To factorise x² + 5x + 6, find two numbers that multiply to 6 and add to 5: these are 2 and 3.
因式分解是展开的逆运算。要对 x² + 5x + 6 进行因式分解,找到两个相乘为 6 且相加为 5 的数:它们是 2 和 3。
5. Solving Linear Equations | 解一元一次方程
To solve a linear equation, use the balance method: do the same operation to both sides until the unknown is isolated.
要解一元一次方程,使用平衡法:对方程两边执行相同的运算,直到未知数被单独分离出来。
For 2x + 3 = 11, first subtract 3 from both sides to get 2x = 8, then divide both sides by 2 to get x = 4.
对于 2x + 3 = 11,首先两边同时减去 3 得到 2x = 8,然后两边同时除以 2 得到 x = 4。
2x + 3 = 11 → 2x = 8 → x = 4
If the equation has brackets, expand them first. If the unknown appears on both sides, collect the variable terms on one side before solving.
如果方程含有括号,请先展开括号。如果未知数出现在两边,先将含变量的项移到一边再求解。
6. Ratio, Proportion and Rates | 比、比例与速率
To simplify a ratio, divide all parts by their highest common factor. The ratio 12:18 simplifies to 2:3.
要化简比,将各部分除以它们的最大公因数。比 12:18 化简为 2:3。
To share a quantity in a given ratio, find the total number of parts, divide the quantity by that total, then multiply by each part.
按给定比例分配数量时,先求出总份数,将数量除以总份数,再乘以每份对应的份数。
Ratio 2:3 with total £60 → 5 parts → one part = £12 → shares £24 and £36
Direct proportion means that as one quantity increases, the other increases at the same rate. Use the unitary method: find the value of one unit first.
正比例意味着一个量增加时,另一个量以相同速率增加。使用单位法:先求出一个单位的值。
7. Angles and Properties of Shapes | 角与图形性质
Key angle rules include: angles on a straight line sum to 180°, angles around a point sum to 360°, and the angles in a triangle sum to 180°.
关键角度规则包括:直线上的角之和为 180°,一点周围的角之和为 360°,三角形内角之和为 180°。
When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate angles are equal, corresponding angles are equal, and co-interior angles sum to 180°.
当平行线被一条截线所截时,内错角相等,同位角相等,同旁内角之和为 180°。
- Angles on a straight line: 直线上的角:sum = 180°
- Angles around a point: 一点周围的角:sum = 360°
- Triangle angle sum: 三角形内角和:sum = 180°
- Quadrilateral angle sum: 四边形内角和:sum = 360°
For any polygon, the sum of interior angles is (n − 2) × 180°, where n is the number of sides. The sum of exterior angles is always 360°.
对于任意多边形,内角和为 (n − 2) × 180°,其中 n 是边数。外角和始终为 360°。
8. Perimeter, Area and Volume | 周长、面积与体积
The perimeter is the distance around the outside of a 2D shape. The area of a rectangle is length × width, and the area of a triangle is half the base times the vertical height.
周长是二维图形外边缘的总长度。矩形的面积等于长 × 宽,三角形的面积等于底乘垂直高的一半。
Rectangle area: A = l × w Triangle area: A = ½ × b × h
For circles, the circumference is C = 2πr or πd, and the area is A = πr², where r is the radius.
对于圆,周长为 C = 2πr 或 πd,面积为 A = πr²,其中 r 是半径。
The volume of a cuboid is length × width × height. The volume of any prism is the area of the cross-section multiplied by the length.
长方体的体积等于长 × 宽 × 高。任何棱柱的体积等于横截面积乘以长度。
V = l × w × h and V = cross-sectional area × length
9. Statistics: Averages and Charts | 统计:平均数与图表
The mean is found by adding all values and dividing by the number of values. The median is the middle value, the mode is the most frequent value, and the range is the difference between the largest and smallest values.
平均数的计算方法是将所有数值相加后除以数值的个数。中位数是中间值,众数是出现频率最高的值,极差是最大值与最小值之差。
Mean = (sum of values) ÷ (number of values)
Bar charts show frequency by the height of bars. Pie charts show proportions as angles, where each angle = (frequency ÷ total) × 360°.
条形图通过条形的高度表示频数。饼图通过角度表示比例,每个角度 = (频数 ÷ 总数) × 360°。
Scatter graphs show the relationship between two variables. If points slope upwards, there is a positive correlation; if they slope downwards, the correlation is negative.
散点图显示两个变量之间的关系。如果点总体向上倾斜,则为正相关;如果向下倾斜,则为负相关。
10. Probability Basics | 概率基础
Probability is a number between 0 and 1, where 0 means impossible and 1 means certain. It can also be written as a fraction, decimal or percentage.
概率是介于 0 和 1 之间的数,0 表示不可能,1 表示必然发生。它也可以写成分数、小数或百分比。
P(event) = number of favourable outcomes ÷ total number of outcomes
If all outcomes are equally likely, the probability of rolling a 4 on a fair six-sided die is 1/6.
如果所有结果等可能,掷一枚公平的六面骰子得到 4 的概率是 1/6。
The probabilities of all mutually exclusive outcomes add up to 1. So P(event not happening) = 1 − P(event happening).
所有互斥事件的概率之和为 1。因此 P(事件不发生) = 1 − P(事件发生)。
11. Coordinates and Linear Graphs | 坐标与线性图像
Coordinates are written as (x, y), where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position. The origin is (0, 0).
坐标写作 (x, y),其中 x 是水平位置,y 是垂直位置。原点是 (0, 0)。
A linear graph has the equation y = mx + c. m is the gradient, which measures steepness, and c is the y-intercept, where the line crosses the y-axis.
线性图像具有方程 y = mx + c。m 是斜率,表示倾斜程度;c 是 y 轴截距,即直线与 y 轴的交点。
y = 2x + 1 gradient = 2 y-intercept = 1
To plot a linear graph, choose a table of x values, substitute them into the equation to find y, then plot the points and join them with a straight line.
要绘制线性图像,先选定一组 x 值,将它们代入方程求出 y,然后描点并用直线连接。
12. Transformations | 图形变换
The four transformations are translation, reflection, rotation and enlargement. A translation moves a shape without turning or flipping it.
四种图形变换是平移、反射、旋转和放大。平移是移动图形而不旋转或翻转它。
A reflection flips a shape over a mirror line. A rotation turns a shape around a centre point by a given angle and direction.
反射是使图形沿对称轴翻转。旋转是使图形绕中心点按给定角度和方向转动。
An enlargement changes the size of a shape by a scale factor from a centre of enlargement. If the scale factor is greater than 1, the shape gets bigger; if it is between 0 and 1, the shape gets smaller.
放大是使图形按比例因子相对于放大中心改变大小。如果比例因子大于 1,图形变大;如果在 0 和 1 之间,图形变小。
Enlargement scale factor k: new length = k
