Mathematics GCSE Coursework T-Total 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 Say you had a 9 by 9-number grid with a T-shape drawn on it. The total of the numbers inside the T is 1 + 2 + 3 + 11 + 20 =37. This is called the T-total. The number at the bottom of the T-shape (20 in this case) is called the T-number. I was set the task of investigating the relationship between the T-number and T-total on different grid sizes and different positions on the grid. 1 2 3 10 11 12 19 20 21 What I will aim to find out is a formula that will link the T-number and T-total in some way or another. First I will find out the difference between the different T-numbers and T-totals in the grid (sticking to only a 9x9 for now) So it is easier and quicker to write I will use the following letters to represent certain numbers: - - X = grid length - N = T-number -...
