Year 9 Mathematics Advanced 

TERM 4, 2026

Students will begin Term 4 with Topic 11 – Non-Linear Relationships A and B. They will look at the connection between algebraic and graphical representations of quadratics and exponentials. They will then graph and examine quadratic relationships and exponential relationships. Lastly, they will distinguish between linear, quadratic and exponential relationships by examining their graphical representations.

Next, in Topic 12 – Probability A and B, students will describe multistage chance experiments involving independent and dependent events, then solve problems for multistage chance experiments. Next, students will design and use simulations to model and examine situations involving probability, and solve problems involving Venn diagrams and 2-way tables. Finally, they will describe mutually and non-mutually exclusive events using specific language and calculate related probabilities.

During Term 4, students will complete Task 4 - Yearly Examination which contributes to 40% of the students’ overall assessment for the year.
