Logarithms 8Logarithms appear in all sorts of calculations in engineering and science, business and economics. Before the days of calculators they were used to assist in the process of multiplication by replacing the operation of multiplication by addition. Similarly, they enabled the operation of division to be replaced by subtraction. They remain important in other ways, one of which is that they provide the underlying theory of the logarithm function. This has applications in many fields, for example, the decibel scale in acoustics.

Simple Linear EquationsIn this unit we give examples of simple linear equations and show you how these can be solved. In any equation there is an unknown quantity, x say, that we are trying to find. In a linear equation this unknown quantity will appear only as a multiple of x, and not as a function of x such as x2, x3, sin x and so on. Linear equations occur so frequently in the solution of other problems that a thorough understanding of them is essential.

Introduction to functionsA function is a rule which operates on one number to give another number.
However, not every rule describes a valid function. This unit explains
how to see whether a given rule describes a valid function, and introduces
some of the mathematical terms associated with functions. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

To investigate the potential of emerging eLearning technologies to enhance online support for students of mathematicsA report by Brendan Cooney on a project is to investigate possible technologies that enable the transmission of mathematical content, conversations in mathematics, the posing of problems and transfer of solutions in an effective and efficient manner. The intention is to trial various technologies and then to implement the chosen technology for online delivery of mathematics support to RMIT students. (2013)
Finding areas by integrationIntegration can be used to calculate areas. In simple cases, the area is given
by a single definite integral. But sometimes the integral gives a negative
answer which is minus the area, and in more complicated cases the correct
answer can be obtained only by splitting the area into several parts and adding
or subtracting the appropriate integrals. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

Cartesian components of vectorsAny vector may be expressed in Cartesian components, by using unit vectors in
the directions of the coordinate axes. In this unit we describe these unit
vectors in two dimensions and in three dimensions, and show how they can be
used in calculations. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial).

Linear Equations in One Variable Part 1IPOD VIDEO: In this unit we give examples of simple linear equations and show you how these can be solved. In any equation there is an unknown quantity, x say, that we are trying to find. In a linear equation this unknown quantity will appear only as a multiple of x, and not as a function of x such as x squared, x cubed, sin x and so on. Linear equations occur so frequently in the solution of other problems that a thorough understanding of them is essential.
