• VC2M10AA04

  explore the inverse relationship between exponential functions and logarithmic functions and the solution of related equations

  Elaborations

  • using the definition of a logarithm and the exponent laws to establish the logarithm laws
  • evaluating 10x for decimal values of x and relating this to a logarithm base 10 scale; solving exponential equations algebraically using logarithms with base 10, for example, 5000×1.01x=10 000⇒x= log10(2)log10(1.01)≈69.66 ; and connecting to the graph of the corresponding function

• VC2M5N02

  express natural numbers as products of their factors, recognise multiples and determine if one number is divisible by another

  Elaborations

  • using a certain number of blocks to form different rectangles and using these to list all possible factors for that number; for example, 12 blocks can form the following rectangles: 1 × 12, 2 × 6 and 3 × 4
  • researching divisibility tests and explaining each rule using materials; for example, using base-10 blocks to test if numbers are divisible by 2, 5 and 10
  • using divisibility tests to determine if larger numbers are multiples of one-digit numbers; for example, testing if 89 472 is divisible by 3 using 8 + 9 + 4 + 7 + 2 = 30, as 30 is divisible by 3 then 89 472 is a multiple of 3
  • demonstrating and reasoning that all multiples can be formed by combining or regrouping; for example, multiples of 7 can be formed by combining a multiple of 2 with the corresponding multiple of 5: 3 × 7 = 3 × 2 + 3 × 5, and 4 × 7 = 4 × 2 + 4 × 5
