About the book

This book gives you fully worked solutions for every question in each chapter of the Haese Mathematics textbook for South Australia Mathematics for Year 12: Mathematical Studies second edition.

Answers are given for every question in every chapter in the book:

• Background knowledge
• Functions and introductory calculus
• Differential calculus
• Applications of differential calculus
• Exponential and logarithmic functions
• Integration
• Statistics
• Binomial distributions
• Solving systems of linear equations
• Matrices

Correct answers can sometimes be obtained by different methods. In this book, where applicable, each worked solution is modelled on the worked example in the textbook.

Be aware of the limitations of calculators and computer modelling packages. Understand that when your calculator gives an answer that is different from the answer you find in this book, you have not necessarily made a mistake, but the book may not be wrong either.
