Spaced Revision

Come back to Some Mathematical Tools Used In Economics after a week. Use flashcards for quick recall and try past exam questions on this chapter.

What to Focus On

  • Sample and census techniques are statistical tools for collection of data.
  • Array of data and tally bars are statistical tools for organisation of data.
  • Tables, diagrams and graphs are statistical tools for presentation of data.
  • X variable is the independent variable represented on the X-axis.
  • Y variable is the dependent variable represented on the Y-axis.
  • Slope is the ratio of change in Y to change in X.
  • A downward sloping straight line indicates inverse relation between X and Y.
  • The equation is y = a - bx.
  • The value of slope for a downward sloping line is negative.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Slope is only for straight lines and cannot be used for other curves.

A downward sloping line has a positive slope because the line still goes from left to right.

A positive slope means the line must be downward sloping.
