- AC9M9A01 – apply the exponent laws to numerical expressions with integer exponents and extend to variables
- AC9M9A02 – simplify algebraic expressions, expand binomial products and factorise monic quadratic expressions
- AC9M9A03 – find the gradient of a line segment, the midpoint of the line interval and the distance between 2 distinct points on the Cartesian plane
- AC9M9A04 – identify and graph quadratic functions, solve quadratic equations graphically and numerically, and solve monic quadratic equations with integer roots algebraically, using graphing software and digital tools as appropriate
- AC9M9A05 – use mathematical modelling to solve applied problems involving change including financial contexts; formulate problems, choosing to use either linear or quadratic functions; interpret solutions in terms of the situation; evaluate the model and report methods and findings
- AC9M9A06 – experiment with the effects of the variation of parameters on graphs of related functions, using digital tools, making connections between graphical and algebraic representations, and generalising emerging patterns
