1 Record Breakers This investigation will be assessed against Criteria A, C and D On the attached data sheet are details of records achieved between 1942 and 1993 in the men s one mile race. In this investigation, you are going to use what you know about linear and other graphs to analyse this information and answer questions on your findings. 1. Select 12 record holders and clearly mark the ones you have chosen by creating a table. Explain your system for choosing those 12 and why you thought that system was best. Could you have chosen them differently? How? Why did you not use this other method? 2. Now, without using technology, you are going to plot your 12 chosen values on a graph, plotting the year against the record time. To make this easier, first create a table containing the points you are going to plot. When drawing the graph, you should let the x- axis represent the year since 1900 (you will need to think carefully about the best way to do this!) and let the y-axis represent the time in seconds. Show all the working you had to do before you were able to record your chosen data in the table ready for graphing. How accurate do you think the time should be? Why do you think this is a good choice? 3. Choosing a suitable scale, plot your values on the graph paper provided. Once you have done this, try to draw a line of best fit for your data. How good a fit do you think your line is? 4. Find the equation of your line of best fit. Show clearly how you found the gradient and the y-intercept, either directly from your graph or by calculation. Looking at your graph, does this equation make sense? Explain. How could you check that your equation is correct? Do you think the rest of the class will get exactly the same equation as you? Explain. 5. Now use your equation to predict : (a) The record time in (b) In what year the record time will be 3 minutes 30 seconds. To what degree of accuracy should you give each of these predictions? Explain. Do you think your predictions would make sense in the real world of athletics? Again, explain your thinking.
2 6. Would it be reasonable to use your model to estimate when someone is likely to run a mile in 3 minutes? Explain your thinking. 7. Now, using Geogebra, try to find a linear model for your data. *8. Now try finding some non-linear models for your data. Include any graphs you draw and make sure you show the equations for them clearly. What kind of model do you think reflects the data most accurately linear or non-linear? Why do you think this? Do you think you are more likely to get the same model as the other students using technology? Explain. 8. Compare your model with the equation you got from your hand-drawn graph. Are they very different? Why? Do you think you would get a more accurate model if you used all the data? Explain. Now, try entering all the data in Geogebra to check. 9. Read this excerpt from the Guinness Book of Records: The fastest men s mile record is held by Hicham El Guerrouj of Morocco, who set the world mark at that distance with 3 minutes seconds in Rome, Italy on July 7 th, El Guerrouj is the lightest runner to hold the mile record. In the 2002 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia he won silver in the men s 1500m. (a) Investigate whether El Guerrouj fits your model. (b) Would you expect someone to have beaten this record since 1999? Explain. Now do some research to see if your assumption is correct. Does what your research affect your thinking about whether he fits your model? Why? And finally - Can you think of some other real-life examples where you could use similar techniques to find models that describe real-life relationships between things? Give details of your ideas. - In general, are there any limitations to predicting results from the models in this task or from models in any of the other real-life situations you have just described? - Why might you want to use this technique to predict results in real life?

4 Breaking Records Investigation Name Criterion A: Knowledge and Understanding Descriptor 1-2 The student attempts to make deductions when solving simple problems in familiar contexts. You had a valid system for choosing 12 points. You plotted your points on a graph. You drew a line of best fit and tried to find its equation. You tried to use Autograph or your GDC. 3-4 The student sometimes makes appropriate deductions when solving simple and more- complex problems in familiar contexts. 5-6 The student generally makes appropriate deductions when solving challenging problems in a variety of familiar contexts. 7 8 The student consistently makes appropriate deductions when solving challenging problems in a variety of contexts including unfamiliar situations. You were correctly able to find an equation of your line of best fit. You tried to use it to make predictions. You correctly used Autograph or your GDC to find a model. You tested your line of best fit. You made correct predictions and wrote down enough working to show this. You were correctly able to use either Autograph or your GDC to find more than one other model. You briefly discussed which model was best, but did not really back up your thinking with evidence.
