The Ministry is migrating nzmaths content to Tāhurangi.
Relevant and up-to-date teaching resources are being moved to Tāhūrangi (tahurangi.education.govt.nz).
When all identified resources have been successfully moved, this website will close. We expect this to be in June 2024.
e-ako maths, e-ako Pāngarau, and e-ako PLD 360 will continue to be available.

A pair of variables from a data set with at least two variables.
Example
Consider a data set consisting of the heights, ages, genders and eye colours of a class of Year 9 students. The two variables from the data set could be:
both numerical (height and age),
both category (gender and eye colour), or
one numerical and one category (height and gender, respectively).
Note: Part of a Level Eight achievement objective states “including linear regression for bivariate data”. This use of bivariate data implies that both variables are numerical (i.e., quantitative variables).
Curriculum achievement objectives references
