A booklet summarising Edexcel Decision 1. Includes all 7 modules (algorithms, graphs & networks, algorithms on networks, route inspection, critical path analysis, linear programming and matchings). Following the same layout as the textbook, it’s perfect for those who are visual learners or don’t like working from thick textbooks. It includes worked-through examples and key points for every module. Perfect for students learning at A-Level looking for a booklet to help summarise all of Decision 1. Also really good for exam revision and trying to re-jog memories without the overwhelming feeling of going through a full textbook.

This 39-page booklet provides complete notes and examples to support students working towards the Edexcel ‘Maths in Context’ Core Maths qualification. The content is mapped to the official Edexcel specification, with each learning objective clearly signposted. The booklet can be used by students as a companion to their course and it also provides an excellent revision resource for the run-up to the exam. The sections in the booklet are: Applications of Statistics, Probability, Linear Programming and Sequences and Growth. Notes and examples are given for each mathematical concept with numerous graphs and diagrams. The booklet is provided in both PDF and Word formats so that it can be edited if you wish.

I have always found it difficult to get across the concepts required to support Linear Programming to my weaker Higher GCSE groups and especially, more recently, my Core Mathematics groups. There are several issues preventing the less confident mathematicians from doing well in this topic. Firstly, many students are not even confident about plotting simply straight lines such as x = 3, y = 7, x = y etc. Secondly, a lot of them have not fully understood the concept of an inequality. Thirdly, in general these students find it very difficult to convert an English sentences into mathematical statement. I have put together this 90+ PowerPoint slide set to address these problems. I have created interesting/funny ways to remember that x = 3 is a vertical line, whilst y = 3 is horizontal. I have included practice on plotting straight lines and shading regions represented by inequalities. I also introduce the idea of a “test point” that will allow stidents to work out which side of the line they require. I have included practice on solving simultaneous equations using a Casio fx-991EX CLASSWIZ calcuator, and also by manulally solving the equations. A video of how to use the Casio 991 to solve simultaneous equations in included. Of course, the idea of an Objective Function covered, together with how to use the feasibility region to locate the required minimum/maximum value. I focus the students on investigating points close to or at the vertices of the feasibility region. I have stayed away from moving an example objective line through the feasibility region to see which is the last vertex it goes through. This proved a bridge too far for too many of my students! The slide set includes a lot of worked examples, and practice questions along with their solutions. I have also uploaded a free preview PowerPoint Slideshow that contains approximately half of the slides. I hope you find the presentation useful. Please let me know if you find any typos or if you have a suggestion as to how it can be improved. Regards Gerard

This is a PowerPoint presentation which uses animation, simple layouts, graphics and diagrams to clearly explain all topics required for a full understanding of Decision Maths Year 1, Linear programming. This is completely in-line with the Edexcel A-level Further Maths specification. teachingisgood is happy to declare that this presentation also includes loads of practice questions, which build up a key understanding and build exam skills, as well as exam-style questions which push problem solving skills with questions aimed at the highest achieving students. This presentation is part of a series of presentations for A-level Further Maths, some of which also include interactive quizzes, videos and fun ways to test students and develop knowledge. The topics covered in this presentation is as follows. Linear programming problems Graphical methods Locating the optimal point Solutions with integer values

Discrete 1 - Decision 1 - Linear programming - optimal solution - shading inequalities - feasible region - Worksheet with 16 questions to be completed on the sheet - solutions included

A fancy worksheet the graphically represents the solutions to linear programming problems.

A couple of lessons clearly explaining the difficult Linear Programming questions in the iGCSE. Animation shows step by step method. Use the worksheets alongside the PowerPoint. This resource assumes that students already know how to use inequalities to shade regions.

Everything you need to teach Linear Programming.

These PowerPoints form full lessons of work that together cover the new AS level Further Maths course for the AQA exam board. Together all the PowerPoints include; • A complete set of notes for students • Model examples • Probing questions to test understanding • Class questions including answers • Individual whiteboard work • Links to exercises in ‘AQA approved textbooks by Camb uni Press’ these can easily be edited for your textbook The PowerPoints can be used in the lesson and also given to students that have missed a lesson I have added ‘Further Maths 5 - Matrices Transformation’ and ‘Further Maths 23 - Network Flows’ for free download Please leave a review as it will really help me to improve my resources Linear programming covers; Formulate constrained optimisation problems Solve constrained optimisation problems via graphical methods

Linear programming from scratch. Starting from the very basics until the A level (decision maths)

This PDF will enlighten you on the following: -Completing the square when “a” is 1 -Completing the sqaure when “a” is NOT 1. -Additional sides notes are also added. It will be beneficial to download these notes as these are possible 5 marker exam based questions, so do not hesitate in cliclking that DOWNLOAD BUTTON NOW! Worksheets with model answers are provided inside! Pages: 9 We hope to be able to provide further fun, colourful, clear and comprehendible PDFs for you in the future.

With brief solutions

With integer constraint. Useful as a revision or consolidation activity

This 18-page packet is an introduction to linear programming. Topics include graphing linear systems, identifying the feasibility region, objective function, and maximum/minimum. There is a brief lesson, examples, and 10 practice questions (with detailed solutions). Check out the preview file to see samples. Download the product file to see all problems and solutions. (Proceeds support TES and the mathplane site) OR, visit the mathplane site and find the free .pdf file. Thanks for visiting!

This is a powerpoint covering all areas of Decision 1 (I realise they are only putting it in further maths from 2017). It contains brief notes by way of an explanation, model answers to questions and a question or two for the students to do; all of the questions come with answers that you can display when ready. The slide show comes with a progress grid (regularly referred to in the presentation) so that students can mark their progress from start to finish and pinpoint any areas that may need extra work with a “red/amber/green” system that they fill in. It’s what I use in my lessons before setting tasks from worksheets or text books to practice.

3 sets of exam questions for the upcoming Decision exam on the 15th June. All answers attached
