Statistics

by Prof. Alan Smith

Published 5 October 1998
This comprehensive collection of statistics questions for students of A and AS Level is designed to reinforce confidence and understanding through practice. The exercises are supported by key points and worked examples for each new topic. The book matches current syllabus requirements and covers the majority of topics common to the main syllabuses. Although designed primarily for use in the classroom, it offers support for students working independently on homework or revision.

The second edition of this popular series brings all the texts right up to date with the requirements of the new (2004) AS/A2 Modular Mathematics syllabus from Edexcel. The compulsory AS pure modules (C1 and C2) are now in a single handy volume, for ease and flexibility of teaching, as are the A2 pure modules (C3 and C4). There are also text books covering Statistics 1, Statistics 2, Mechanics 1, Mechanics 2, and Decision 1. The books offer a user-friendly approach, setting mathematical problems in a meaningful context. The worked examples take students through all the content at a steady pace, ensuring complete and full understanding of all the concepts needed. Key points are included for every chapter to aid revision. There are also plenty of questions, and even more recent exam questions have been added to this second edition.
