代数(algebra)里我们用字母代表数。一个值能变化的字母是一个变量(variable)。代入(substitute)意味着把一个数放在一个字母的位置。

Worked example.$x = 4$$y = 5$ 时求 $3x^{2} - 2y$ 的值。

$$3 \times 4^{2} - 2 \times 5 = 3 \times 16 - 10 = 48 - 10 = 38.$$

一个(term)是一个表达式(expression)的单个部分,例如 $5a$$-9b$同类项(like terms)有恰好相同的字母;你可以加或减它们。字母前面的数是系数(coefficient)。

一个面积模型: 乘  给出
用一个面积模型展开一个括号
 收集成
收集同类项:加带相同字母的项

Worked example. 化简 $2a^{2} + 3ab - 1 + 5a^{2} - 9ab + 4$

收集同类项:$2a^{2} + 5a^{2} = 7a^{2}$,$3ab - 9ab = -6ab$,$-1 + 4 = 3$。所以答案是

$$7a^{2} - 6ab + 3.$$

展开(expand)意味着把括号(brackets)乘出来。把里面的每一项乘以外面的项;对于两个括号,把第一个里的每一项乘以第二个里的每一项。

Worked examples.

$$3x(2x - 4y) = 6x^{2} - 12xy.$$
$$(2x + 1)(x - 4) = 2x^{2} - 8x + x - 4 = 2x^{2} - 7x - 4.$$

对于三个括号(拓展(Extended)),先展开两个,然后乘以第三个:

$$(x - 2)(x + 3)(2x + 1) = (x^{2} + x - 6)(2x + 1) = 2x^{3} + 3x^{2} - 11x - 6.$$
Collecting like terms: group same powers and add coefficients
Like terms share the same letters and powers — add coefficients only

因式分解(factorise)是展开的反面:把表达式写成括号的一个乘积。总是先取出公因式(common factor)。

Worked example. $9x^{2} + 15xy = 3x(3x + 5y)$,因为 $3x$ 整除两项。

下面的模式是拓展(Extended)。

分组(grouping)(四项):从每一对取出一个公因式。

$$xy + 2x + 3y + 6 = x(y + 2) + 3(y + 2) = (x + 3)(y + 2).$$

平方差(difference of two squares):$a^{2} - b^{2} = (a + b)(a - b)$

$$9x^{2} - 16 = (3x + 4)(3x - 4).$$

完全平方(perfect square):$a^{2} + 2ab + b^{2} = (a + b)^{2}$

$$x^{2} + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)^{2}.$$

二次(quadratic)表达式 $ax^{2} + bx + c$:找到两个相乘得 $a \times c$ 而相加得 $b$ 的数,然后拆分中间项。

Worked example. 因式分解 $2x^{2} + 7x + 3$

这里 $a \times c = 6$$b = 7$。数 $1$$6$ 起作用。拆分并分组:

$$2x^{2} + x + 6x + 3 = x(2x + 1) + 3(2x + 1) = (x + 3)(2x + 1).$$

对于 $ax^{3} + bx^{2} + cx$,先取出公共的 $x$:$2x^{3} + 7x^{2} + 3x = x(2x^{2} + 7x + 3) = x(x + 3)(2x + 1)$

金门悬索桥
一根悬索桥缆绳挂成一条抛物线——一个二次式的图像。

配方法(completing the square)把 $x^{2} + bx + c$ 重写为 $(x + p)^{2} + q$。取 $x$ 系数的一半、把它平方,然后平衡。

Worked example.$x^{2} + 6x + 1$ 写成配方形式。

$6$ 的一半是 $3$,而 $3^{2} = 9$:

$$x^{2} + 6x + 1 = (x + 3)^{2} - 9 + 1 = (x + 3)^{2} - 8.$$

$x^{2}$ 有一个系数时,先把它从前两项取出:

$$2x^{2} + 8x + 3 = 2(x^{2} + 4x) + 3 = 2\big((x + 2)^{2} - 4\big) + 3 = 2(x + 2)^{2} - 5.$$

2 Factorise and simplify rational expressions. e.g. $\frac{x^2 - 2x}{x^2 - 5x + 6}$.

来源:剑桥国际大纲

一个分式(algebraic fraction)在上部或底部有代数。用一个公分母加和减;像普通分数一样乘和除。

Worked examples.

$$\frac{x}{3} + \frac{x - 4}{2} = \frac{2x}{6} + \frac{3(x - 4)}{6} = \frac{2x + 3x - 12}{6} = \frac{5x - 12}{6}.$$
$$\frac{3a}{4} \div \frac{9a}{10} = \frac{3a}{4} \times \frac{10}{9a} = \frac{30a}{36a} = \frac{5}{6}.$$

要化简一个有理式(rational expression),因式分解上部和底部,然后约去公共的括号。

$$\frac{x^{2} - 2x}{x^{2} - 5x + 6} = \frac{x(x - 2)}{(x - 2)(x - 3)} = \frac{x}{x - 3}.$$

指数(indices)律对字母也起作用:$a^{m} \times a^{n} = a^{m+n}$,$a^{m} \div a^{n} = a^{m-n}$,而 $(a^{m})^{n} = a^{mn}$

Worked examples.

$$(5x^{3})^{2} = 25x^{6}, \qquad 12a^{5} \div 3a^{-2} = 4a^{7}, \qquad 6x^{7}y^{4} \times 5x^{-5}y = 30x^{2}y^{5}.$$

你也能通过把两边写成相同的底数(base)来解简单的指数方程。

Worked example.$2^{x} = 32$。因为 $32 = 2^{5}$,你得到 $x = 5$

联立方程:线在哪里相交

一个方程(equation)说两个表达式相等。要解一个一次(linear)方程,对两边做相同的运算直到未知数(unknown)独立。

解 :减 、然后除以 ,给出
通过对两边做相同的来解

Worked example.$5 - 2x = 3(x + 7)$

$$5 - 2x = 3x + 21 \;\Rightarrow\; 5 - 21 = 3x + 2x \;\Rightarrow\; -16 = 5x \;\Rightarrow\; x = -\tfrac{16}{5}.$$

Fractional equations (Extended)

一个分式方程(fractional equation)在一个分母里有未知数。把两边乘以分母来清除它。

Worked example.$\dfrac{x}{2x + 1} = 4$

$$x = 4(2x + 1) = 8x + 4 \;\Rightarrow\; -7x = 4 \;\Rightarrow\; x = -\tfrac{4}{7}.$$

Simultaneous equations

联立方程(simultaneous equations)是一起求解的两个方程。对于两个一次方程,加或减以消去一个字母。

Worked example.$2x + y = 7$$3x - y = 8$

相加消去 $y$:$5x = 15$,所以 $x = 3$。然后 $y = 7 - 2(3) = 1$

 和  的图像在点  处相交,这是解
联立方程的解是它们的图像相交的地方

对于一个一次和一个二次方程(拓展(Extended)),把一次的代入曲线。

Worked example.$y = x + 2$$y = x^{2}$

$$x^{2} = x + 2 \;\Rightarrow\; x^{2} - x - 2 = 0 \;\Rightarrow\; (x - 2)(x + 1) = 0,$$

所以 $x = 2$(给出 $y = 4$)或 $x = -1$(给出 $y = 1$)。

Solving quadratic equations (Extended)

有三个方法。

  • 通过因式分解: $x^{2} + 5x + 6 = 0 \Rightarrow (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0 \Rightarrow x = -2$$x = -3$
  • 通过配方法: $x^{2} + 6x + 1 = 0 \Rightarrow (x + 3)^{2} = 8 \Rightarrow x + 3 = \pm 2\sqrt{2} \Rightarrow x = -3 \pm 2\sqrt{2}$
  • 通过求根公式(quadratic formula),它在考试中给出:
    $$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2} - 4ac}}{2a}.$$

Worked example (formula).$2x^{2} + 3x - 1 = 0$。这里 $a = 2$,$b = 3$,$c = -1$:

$$x = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{9 + 8}}{4} = \frac{-3 \pm \sqrt{17}}{4}.$$

Changing the subject

公式变形(change the subject)一个公式的意味着重新排列它,使一个选定的字母在一边独立。

Worked example. 使 $r$ 成为 $A = \pi r^{2}$ 的主项(拓展(Extended),因为有幂)。

$$r^{2} = \frac{A}{\pi} \;\Rightarrow\; r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{\pi}}.$$

当字母出现两次时(拓展(Extended)),收集那些项并因式分解。要使 $x$ 成为 $y = \dfrac{x + 1}{x - 1}$ 的主项:

$$y(x - 1) = x + 1 \;\Rightarrow\; yx - x = 1 + y \;\Rightarrow\; x(y - 1) = 1 + y \;\Rightarrow\; x = \frac{1 + y}{y - 1}.$$

4 List inequalities that define a given region. Linear programming problems are not included.

一个不等式(inequality)用 $<$$>$$\leqslant$$\geqslant$。像一个方程一样解它,但若你乘以或除以一个负数就反转符号

Worked example.$-3 \leqslant 3x - 2 < 7$

对所有部分加 $2$,然后除以 $3$:

$$-1 \leqslant 3x < 9 \;\Rightarrow\; -\tfrac{1}{3} \leqslant x < 3.$$

在一条数轴(number line)上,对 $<$$>$ 用一个空心圆(值不被包含),对 $\leqslant$$\geqslant$ 用一个实心圆(值被包含)。

罗马花椰菜螺旋
罗马花椰菜:自相似的螺旋构成一个自然的数模式。

一个数列(sequence)是遵循一个规则的一列数。递推规则(term-to-term rule)告诉你如何从前一项得到下一项。

要找到位置 $n$ 处的项(第 $n$(term))的规则,看这些项如何变化。

一次数列(linear sequence)(每次这些项上升相同的数额)。差是 $n$ 的倍数。

Worked example.$2, 5, 8, 11, \dots$ 的第 $n$ 项。

这些项上升 $3$,所以从 $3n$ 开始。因为 $3 \times 1 = 3$ 但第一项是 $2$,减 $1$:第 $n$ 项是 $3n - 1$

二次数列(quadratic sequence)(差本身以相同的数额变化)。二阶差等于 $2 \times$ $n^{2}$ 的系数。

Worked example.$2, 5, 10, 17, \dots$ 的第 $n$ 项。

一阶差是 $3, 5, 7$;二阶差是 $2$,所以 $n^{2}$ 部分是 $1n^{2}$。从数列减去 $n^{2}$($1, 4, 9, 16$)留下 $1, 1, 1, 1$。所以第 $n$ 项是 $n^{2} + 1$

一个像 $1, 8, 27, 64, \dots$ 这样的三次(cubic)数列有第 $n$$n^{3}$。一个像 $2, 6, 18, 54, \dots$ 这样的指数数列(exponential sequence)每次乘以一个固定的数;这里第 $n$ 项是 $2 \times 3^{\,n-1}$

来源:剑桥国际大纲

两个量成正比例(direct proportion)若一个总是另一个的一个固定倍数:$y \propto x$ 意味着 $y = kx$,其中 $k$ 是一个常数(constant)。它们成反比例(inverse proportion)若一个随着另一个下降而上升:$y \propto \dfrac{1}{x}$ 意味着 $y = \dfrac{k}{x}$。符号 $\propto$ 读作"与……成比例"。你也能有与一个平方、平方根、立方或立方根成比例。

Worked example. $y$$x$ 成正比例,而当 $x = 3$$y = 12$。当 $x = 7$ 时求 $y$

先求 $k$:$12 = k \times 3$,所以 $k = 4$$y = 4x$。然后 $y = 4 \times 7 = 28$

速度-时间图:斜率和面积

一个图的斜率(gradient)(陡度)显示一个变化率(rate of change)。

  • 一个行程图(travel graph)(距离-时间图)有等于速度的斜率;一个平坦的部分意味着物体不在移动。
  • 一个换算图(conversion graph)是用于在两个单位之间转换的一条直线(例如,英里和千米)。
一个距离-时间图上升、然后平坦、然后回落到零,标记为远离、停止和返回家
在一个距离-时间图上斜率是速度;一个平坦的部分意味着物体已经停止。

Speed–time graphs (Extended)

在一个速度-时间图上斜率是加速度(acceleration)(若速度下降则是减速度(deceleration)),而图下的面积(area)是行驶的距离(distance)。

Worked example. 一辆车在 $8\text{ s}$ 里从静止加速到 $20\text{ m/s}$,然后在 $20\text{ m/s}$ 保持 $12\text{ s}$。求加速度和总距离。

加速度 $= \dfrac{20}{8} = 2.5\text{ m/s}^{2}$。距离是面积:一个三角形加一个矩形,

$$\tfrac{1}{2} \times 8 \times 20 + 12 \times 20 = 80 + 240 = 320\text{ m}.$$

要画一个图,做一个数值表(table of values):选择 $x$ 的值、算出 $y$,然后描出坐标(coordinates)并用一条光滑的曲线连接它们。

图穿过 $x$ 轴(水平坐标轴(axis))的点是(roots)——$y = 0$ 的解。

你能通过读一个图来解一个方程。一条线和一条曲线的交点(intersection point)给出两个方程一起的解。

对于指数增长(exponential growth)和指数衰减(exponential decay),$y = a\,b^{x} + c$ 的图越来越快地上升(或下降)并朝一条水平线变平。

Subject content Notes and examples
1 Estimate gradients of curves by drawing tangents.
2 Use the derivatives of functions of the form $ax^n$, where $a$ is a rational constant and $n$ is a positive integer or zero, and simple sums of not more than three of these. $\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x}$ notation will be expected.
3 Apply differentiation to gradients and stationary points (turning points).
4 Discriminate between maxima and minima by any method. Maximum and minimum points may be identified by: • an accurate sketch • use of the second differential • inspecting the gradient either side of a turning point. Candidates are not expected to identify points of inflection.

微分(differentiation)求一条曲线在任何点的斜率。你能通过画一条切线(tangent)(一条恰好触及曲线的线)并测量它的斜率来估计它。

一条曲线,一条直的切线在一个标记的点触及它
一条曲线在一点的斜率等于那里切线的斜率——微分所求的。

精确的规则:若 $y = ax^{n}$,那么导数(derivative)是

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = a\,n\,x^{\,n-1}.$$

逐项微分一个和。

Worked example.$y = x^{3} + 2x^{2} - 5x$,那么 $\dfrac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 3x^{2} + 4x - 5$

一个驻点(stationary point)(转折点)是斜率为零的地方,所以令 $\dfrac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 0$

Worked example.$y = x^{2} - 6x + 5$ 的转折点。

$$\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = 2x - 6 = 0 \;\Rightarrow\; x = 3, \quad y = 3^{2} - 6(3) + 5 = -4.$$

转折点是 $(3, -4)$。要判定一个转折点是一个最大值(maximum)还是一个最小值(minimum),检查每一侧斜率的符号,或用二阶导数(正的意味着一个最小值)。

Subject content Notes and examples
1 Understand functions, domain and range and use function notation. Examples include: • $f(x) = 3x - 5$$g(x) = \frac{3(x + 4)}{5}$$h(x) = 2x^2 + 3$.
2 Understand and find inverse functions $f^{-1}(x)$.
3 Form composite functions as defined by $gf(x) = g(f(x))$. e.g. $f(x) = \frac{3}{x + 2}$ and $g(x) = (3x + 5)^2$. Find $fg(x)$. Give your answer as a fraction in its simplest form. Candidates are not expected to find the domains and ranges of composite functions. This topic may include mapping diagrams.

一个函数(function)把每个输入变成一个输出。我们写 $f(x)$,例如 $f(x) = 3x - 5$,所以 $f(2) = 1$。允许的输入的集合是定义域(domain);可能的输出的集合是值域(range)。

反函数(inverse function)$f^{-1}(x)$ 撤销函数。要找到它,写 $y = f(x)$、交换角色,并使 $x$ 成为主项。

Worked example.$f(x) = 3x - 5$ 的反函数。

$$y = 3x - 5 \;\Rightarrow\; x = \frac{y + 5}{3}, \quad \text{so} \quad f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3}.$$
函数  画成一台机器,乘以  然后减 ;下面的反机器向后运行,加  然后除以
一个函数作为一台机器;反函数向后运行它——反转顺序、撤销每一步

一个复合函数(composite function)一个接一个地应用一个函数:$gf(x)$ 意味着"先做 $f$,然后 $g$"。

Worked example.$f(x) = 2x$$g(x) = x + 3$,那么

$$gf(x) = g(2x) = 2x + 3, \qquad fg(x) = f(x + 3) = 2(x + 3) = 2x + 6.$$

考试技巧

  • 当你展开括号时,乘每一项并注意符号,尤其是前面有一个负号时:$-(x - 3) = -x + 3$
  • 要解一个方程,对两边做相同的事。当你把一个不等式乘以或除以一个负数时,翻转符号。
  • 完全因式分解:先取出最大公因式,然后寻找一个平方差或一个二次模式。
  • 一个二次式通常有两个解——给出两个。检查问题想要因式分解、公式,还是配方法。
  • 当代入一个公式时,先把每个值放进括号里,这样符号和幂就出来正确。
