Functions: Understanding, Comparing & Identifying Linear and Nonlinear Relationships

Develop a strong understanding of functions through worked examples, guided practice, and problem-solving activities. Explore how functions can be represented using equations, tables, graphs, and real-world situations. Compare functions using rate of change and initial value, and distinguish between linear and nonlinear relationships. Progress from foundational skills to more challenging applications with Bronze, Silver, and Gold practice sections, complete with a full answer key. Suitable for Grade 8 / Year 8 mathematics.
