I can identify a viable small business and its expenses.
Skill 1.3
Profit, loss, and break-even
I can find the break-even point and explain what shifts profit.

Skill 1.6
The official wording · 6 outcomes
- 1.1
- Describe and explain various options for buying, leasing and leasing to buy a vehicle
- 1.2
- Solve, with or without technology, problems that involve the purchase, lease or lease to purchase a vehicle
- 1.3
- Identify expenses in operating a small business
- 1.4
- Determine the profit, loss and break-even point for a small business
- 1.5

Key ideas
Buying, leasing, and lease-to-buy each spread cost differently.
A business has start-up and ongoing expenses.
Renting and owning carry different up-front and ongoing costs.
A good decision weighs finances, use, maintenance, warranty, mileage, and insurance.
A community's needs shape which businesses can succeed.
Watch out for
- Thinking the lowest monthly payment is always cheapest overall.
- Forgetting hidden expenses like rent, wages, and supplies.
- Comparing rent to a mortgage payment only, ignoring upkeep.

Unit 2 · 2 skills
Linear Relations
Recognizing Linear Relations
Identifying linear relations
I can tell a linear relation from a nonlinear one.
Skill 2.1
Slope, variation, and equations
I can use slope and an equation to model a linear context.
Skill 2.2
The official wording · 2 outcomes
- 2.1
- Identify and describe the characteristics of a linear relation represented in a graph, table of values or number pattern
- 2.2
- Relate slope and rate of change to linear relations
Key ideas
A linear relation changes by a constant amount.
Connect points only when in-between values make sense.
Slope is the rate of change of a linear relation.
Direct variation passes through the origin; partial variation does not.
Watch out for
- Calling any straight-looking curve linear.
- Always connecting points regardless of context.
- Mixing up the rate and the starting value.

Unit 3 · 8 skills
Measurement and Geometry
Precision and Accuracy
Precision vs accuracy
I can tell precision and accuracy apart and judge what a job needs.
Skill 3.1
Instruments and tolerance
I can work with instrument limits and a tolerance.
Skill 3.2
Solving tolerance problems
I can solve a real tolerance problem.
Skill 3.3
Properties of Polygons
Angle properties of polygons
I can describe angle properties of common polygons.
Skill 3.4
Side lengths, symmetry, and applications
I can use side and symmetry properties of polygons.
Skill 3.5
Similarity and Transformations
Similarity and dilations
I can create and recognize a dilation of a shape.
Skill 3.6
Single transformations
I can perform and name a single transformation.
Skill 3.7
Designs with combined transformations
I can build a design from combined transformations.
Skill 3.8
The official wording · 8 outcomes
- 3.1
- Explain, using examples, the difference between precision and accuracy
- 3.2
- Compare the degree of accuracy of two given instruments used to measure the same attribute
- 3.3
- Solve problems that involve precision, accuracy or tolerance
- 3.4
- Describe and illustrate angle properties of triangles
- 3.5
- Describe and illustrate side length properties of triangles
- 3.6
- Determine and explain whether a given image is a dilation of another given shape, using the concept of similarity
- 3.7
- Draw the image of a 2-D shape that results from a given single transformation
- 3.8
- Draw the image of a 2-D shape that results from a given combination of successive transformations
Key ideas
Accuracy is closeness to the true value; precision is fineness of measure.
A triangle's angles sum to 180 degrees.
A dilation scales a shape while keeping it proportional.
Different trades demand different degrees of each.
Regular polygons have equal angles set by their number of sides.
Watch out for
- Using precision and accuracy as the same word.
- Assuming every polygon's angles behave like a regular one.
- Changing the shape's proportions when scaling.

Unit 4 · 1 skill
Sine and Cosine Law
Solving Triangles on the Job
Sine law and cosine law
I can solve a triangle on the job with the sine or cosine law.
Skill 4.1
The official wording · 1 outcomes
- 4.1
- Solve problems, using the sine law or cosine law, when a diagram is given
Key ideas
The sine law relates sides to their opposite angles.
The cosine law solves triangles with two sides and the included angle or three sides.
Watch out for
- Using the sine law when the given information needs the cosine law.
- Mismatching a side with the wrong opposite angle.

Unit 5 · 4 skills
Statistics
Measures of Central Tendency
Mean, median, and mode
I can find and choose the right measure of central tendency.
Skill 5.1
Weighted mean and outliers
I can compute a weighted mean and handle outliers.
Skill 5.2
Reading and Graphing Data
Central tendency in the media
I can see how averages are used to spin data in the media.
Skill 5.3
Trends and scatter plots
I can read trends and use a graph to predict.
Skill 5.4
The official wording · 4 outcomes
- 5.1
- Determine the mean, median and mode for a set of data
- 5.2
- Calculate the mean of a set of numbers after allowing the data to have different weightings
- 5.3
- Explain, using examples from print and other media, how measures of central tendency and outliers are used to provide different interpretations of data
- 5.4
- Describe the trends in the graph of a data set, including scatter plots
Key ideas
Mean, median, and mode each summarize data differently.
Choosing the mean or median can change a headline's message.
The best measure depends on the shape of the data.
Outliers can be highlighted or hidden to shape a story.
A weighted mean gives some values more importance.
Watch out for
- Always using the mean even when data is skewed.
- Taking a reported average at face value.
- Confusing the median with the mode.

Skill 6.2
The official wording · 2 outcomes
- 6.1
- Calculate the probability of an event based on a data set
- 6.2
- Explain the difference between odds and probability
Key ideas
Probability is favourable outcomes over total outcomes.
A probability can be written as a fraction, decimal, or percent.
Odds compare favourable to unfavourable outcomes.
Real decisions blend theory, experiment, and judgement.
Watch out for
- Using the wrong total when counting outcomes.
- Reporting a probability above 1.
- Treating odds and probability as the same ratio.
