1.4.2 P is for Presentation By presentation, we mean, the way in which the information is communicated. You might want to ask yourself: Is the language clear and easy to understand? Is the information clearly laid out so that it is easy to read? Are the fonts large enough and clear? Are the colours effective? (e.g. white or yellow on black can be difficult to read) If there are graphics or photos, do they help
Making and using rules
Rules affect us all, and the way they are made and interpreted could effect how we live. This unit explores how we could interpret and apply rules, and provides you with a basic understanding of rules and rule making within the English legal system. First published on Mon, 25 Jul 2011 as Author(s):
9 Where do the ideas for an Act of Parliament come from? Ideas for an Act of Parliament can come from many sources. You have explored the different types of Bills that exist, and been introduced to the idea that laws need to respond to social and political change. The list that follows is not exhaustive, but is intended to provide an illustration of the range of bodies interested in law and changes in the law. Political party manifestos Party manifestos and pre-election promises are influenced by what politicians believe the publ
4.2 Formulating rules Activity 4 should have shown you that the language used for making rules can sometimes make them difficult to understand. Given that we can only comply with a rule if we know what it means, this is a big problem! In this part of the unit we are going to look at the process of making rules in more detail – and you are going to have the opportunity to make a rule that can be understood and which is effective in achieving what it sets out to do. It is worth restating that rules are made
3.4 Summary of Part B After studying Part B you should be able to: describe the relevance of policy for rule making; recognise differing reactions to Ireland's ban on smoking in the workplace; demonstrate/explain the implications of the rules governing Ireland's ban on smoking in the workplace.
1.4: Price ratios and price indices
Aims
The main aim of this section is to look at some different ways of measuring price increases. In this section you will be looking at measuring price changes using price indices. In order to do this you will need to understand the concept of a price ratio. Price ratios are another way of looking at price increases or decreases, related to the proportional and percentage increases and decreases you have seen before.

1.5.3 Mathematical graphs: What could they mean? The values of the x- and y-coordinates in a graph sometimes relate to measurements of physical quantities: for example, in graphs of height against distance, or temperature against time. Physical quantities always have units associated with them, and these must be shown on the axes’ labels of the graph. In mathematics, however, values of x- and y-coordinates that have been calculated using a formula may simply be numbers: they may not have units atta
3.5 Maths in archaeology In several different parts of the world, footprints from prehistoric human civilisations have been found preserved in either sand or volcanic ash. From these tracks it is possible to measure the foot length and the length of the stride. These measurements can be used to estimate both the height of the person who made the footprint and also whether the person was walking or running by using the following three formulas: 2.9 Roots of polynomials We begin by reminding you of what we mean by the word ‘root’. In this unit we use this term in two different, but related, senses, as given below. If p(z) is a polynomial, then the solutions of the polynomial equation p(z) = 0 are called the roots o 1.3 Further exercises Solve the following linear equations. (a) 5x + 8 = −2 (b) 4.5.1 Surfaces with holes Using this result, we can obtain the Euler characteristic of a surface with any number of holes by successively inserting the holes one at a time. For example, since a closed disc has Euler characteristic 1, it follows that a closed disc with 1 hole has Euler characteristic 0, a disc with 2 holes has Euler characteristic −1, and so on. 4.5 Some general results We next establish some general results about Euler characteristics. We start with a theorem that tells us what happens to the Euler characteristic of a surface when we remove an open disc. The Euler characteristic of a surface with an open disc removed is one le 4.3 The Euler characteristic Subdivisions of surfaces lead to the third number used to classify surfaces, the Euler characteristic. The Euler characteristic χ of a subdivision of a surface is 3.1 Surfaces with twists In Section 3 we study the orientability of surfaces from an informal point of view. In particular, we take a detailed look at the projective plane and its properties. We start by examining some surfaces that resemble a Möbius band. A cylinder or a Möbius band can be formed by gluing together the ends of a rectangular strip or band of paper either with or without twisting the paper before gluing. Does adding further twists to the band before gluing provide any more examples of surfaces 2.3.1 Cylinder The simplest example of a paper-and-glue construction is to make a rectangle into a cylinder by gluing together two opposite edges. We take a closed rectangle ABB' A' in the plane and identify the opposite edges AB and A'B', as shown in Figure 27.
