Tues HW + EC HW (Due tomorrow)

**Please consider your schedule for our April break session! I'd love to have you there!**

  • April Break Session: Wednesday 4/11 from 10:00 - 1:30
  • You will be given a (heavily weighted) take home test over April break--this will be a practice exam, covering all content we have learned, to start our preparation for May 17th
  • During the review session you will have the opportunity to work in groups, to ask questions (of me) and your classmates, and to study (by competing the take home test) in a structured environment....
    • Best case scenario = you finish and turn it in that day!

Tuesday's homework:
  • Please complete the worksheet provided in class, based on today's notes--"The t-distribution (Student's T)." The questions are also provided below.

If you were absent yesterday you should get a classmates' notes about the t-distribution--there a bunch of characteristics we need to know! 
  • Or, read about this on pages 522-525 (start at "Gosset's t")
Extra Credit HW Opportunity: Due by Wednesday (more t-practice)
  • To earn this extra credit you must complete the problems below AND use a different color pen/pencil to grade your work (using the back of the book)
    • It's ok if you don't have all the right answers initially, just show some corrections if you had something wrong! And show some checks or correct marks for everything that's right!
  • Pages 541 - 545: 1bac, 13, 17ab, 23abc

Extra Credit Stamps:
  • If you complete the tables and questions provided in class today you can earn additional stamps--I'll check this stuff on Thursday!

Here is the answer key to last night's (Monday's) HW:
  • I made an error in the t-score on the key I sent via Remind--I had actually entered my "mu-nought" as 4.9 instead of 4.09! The correct t score is shown in red below! (Thanks Kewan and Hannah)


And here is tonight's homework in case you lost yours or were out:
  • If you were out today you can read about this stuff on pages 522-525 (start at "Gosset's t" and read through the yellow boxes on p. 525)--today's focus was on the "yellow boxes" in the book
