The paper focuses on four upper secondary students' collaborative small-group mathematical reasoning (MR) with respect to a sinusoidal function. The students were collaboratively engaged in a process of MR regarding the relationships between mathematical theoretical descriptions of parameters in the algebraic expression of the sinusoidal function…

PEMDAS is a mnemonic device to memorize the order in which to calculate an expression that contains more than one operation. However, students frequently make calculation errors with expressions, which have either multiplication and division or addition and subtraction next to each other. This article explores the mathematical reasoning of the…

This paper considers the problem of analysis of correlation coefficients from a multivariate normal population. A unified theorem is derived for the regression model with normally distributed explanatory variables and the general results are employed to provide useful expressions for the distributions of simple, multiple, and partial-multiple…
