Review Study Guide for MPM1D Grade 9 Academic

Hello Students,

The topics on this page are what I would consider some of the “Big Ideas” of the MPM1D Grade 9 Academic Math Course to assist you in your course review and preparation for the EQAO Grade 9 Assessment of Mathematics which is worth 20% of your final grade. There are four (4) content strands in the course, so I will organize the topics based on strand and only include what I would consider the most important and/or common difficult concepts that all students should review over these last two weeks.

Note that you can find a full course review by clicking here.

LR – Linear Relations

LR1 – Using Data Management to Investigate Relationships

We see these concepts so much throughout the course, I don’t think much time reviewing is necessary.


LR2 – Understanding Characteristics of Linear Relations

LR2.03 – I can identify, through investigation, some properties of linear relations and apply these properties to determine whether a relation is linear or non-linear (by rate of change/initial value when described in words, by first differences in a table, straight/curved graph, degree of terms in equation).


LR2.04 – I can compare the properties of direct variation and partial variation in applications, and identify the initial value when described in words, represented as a table, a graph, or an equation.

Watch another direct variation practice problem solution video and more in-depth details about Direct Variation here.


LR3 – Connecting Various Representations of Linear Relations

LR3.01 – I can determine values of a linear relation by using a table of values, by using the equation of the relation, and by interpolating or extrapolating from the graph of the relation.


LR3.02 – I can describe a situation that would explain the events illustrated by a given graph of a relationship between two variables.

Recall some of our “Distance from Work” videos:

Practice more distance-time graphs here:

Task 1 [act 1 | act 2 | act 3]
Task 2 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 3 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 4 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 5 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 6 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 7 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 8 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 9 [act 2 | act 3]
Task 10 [act 2 | act 3]

Re-try the gameshow that goes with the tasks here.

AG2 – Investigating the Properties of Slope

AG2.01 – I can determine, through investigation, various formulas for the slope of a line segment or a line, and use the formulas to determine the slope of a line segment or a line [from a table or graph using rise over run or m = (y2 – y1)/(x2 – x1)]

AG2.04 – I can identify, through investigation, properties of the slopes of lines and line segments such as direction, positive or negative rate of change (slope), steepness, parallelism, and perpendicularity, using graphing technology to facilitate investigations, where appropriate.
