Monday HW + AP FR

1.) Tonight, please complete the following in your textbook:

Page 91: 11bcd, 27abc, 37abcf

  • See below for #11....
    • For 11b consider today's stamp!
    • 11c is another opportunity to be sure you know how to calculate the 1 var stats--if you KNOW this already, feel free to just get the median and IQR from the back of the book
    • 11d = more describe a distribution practice!
  • For 27ab this can be tricky--consider where most of the data falls, and remember, even if the mean is less than the median within one data set, that doesn't necessarily mean that the average (mean) is less than that of another data set...
  • For 37abc use the 5 # summary!
  • 37f = summer review! Be sure you know how to do this--use your notes from day 3 of the summer academy. 


2.) If you didn't do so already, COMPLETE AND SCORE the AP MC and AP FR question provided in class on Friday--I will also check this in class tomorrow.
  • Read the directions!
    • For the AP MC be sure to write a bullet/notes about how each summary statistic
    • For the free response be sure to COMPLETE and SCORE the free response!
      • You have to look at the sample response to see the correct answers--for instance, you have to comment on shape correctly! The rubric may only tell you to comment on the shape, the sample response is where you can see that the shapes are both skewed right!
    • Here is the link to the AP scoring rubric:
    • And here are the questions:


Tomorrow in class we'll talk more about spread (standard deviation), and maybe some ogives; then, on Wednesday, we'll start to describe some boxplots, and we'll spend Friday focusing on comparing distributions. 

Here are some of the "big picture" goals for the coming weeks:
  1. Finish chapter 5 Monday with a full period quiz (or more like a "quest") on Tuesday 9/25 covering everything we've learned thus far.
  2. Finish chapter 6 from 9/26 to 10/5 with our two unit tests (vocab test, AP FR/MC test) completed by 10/10
