Weekend HW! (and Monday HW)

**Any outstanding Linear Regression tests (vocab and MC = Weds, FR and MC = Thurs) must be made up Monday or Tuesday! You can make up your test...**
  • Monday any period or after school
  • Tuesday any period
This weekend please complete the "Probability: The Basics" worksheet provided in class (or below).
  • This assignment provides us with essential practice we need--probability is all about practice (like anything else, really)!.
  • Some of this will definitely be tough, and will challenge you to extend your learning from today--the more effort you put into figuring it out, the better off you'll be!
  • Use your notes from class today (if you were out, get those from a classmate)---remember to first try to translate everything into words--draw your lines, fill in the blanks, etc.
  • Question 12b actually inlcudes two questions:
    • "What is the probability that you find two people and both are right handed?'
    • "What is the probability that you find two people and both are left handed?"
  • Questions 12d and 13biii are probably the two toughest questions...
    • Use the example below (#5 = not all yellow) for help with 13biii
  • You can also use the examples below for help:


    • And here's the homework questions in case you lost yours or were out:


On Monday/Tuesday in class we'll get right back into probability notes/examples, and the plan is to have  take home quiz over Thanksgiving break. The ultimate goal is to finish the probability unit and have a test our last day before winter break.
  • Week of 11/26-11/30: Ch. 14/15
  • Week of 12/3-12/7: Ch. 15
  • Week of 12/10-12/14: Ch. 16
  • Week of 12/17-12/21: Ch. 17 (with a unit test Friday, 12/21)

Have a great weekend and I'll see you all Monday!

Oh, and if you want to get a head start, here's Monday's homework:

  1. Grade the weekend homework (answers will be posted on the blog)
  2. Pages 339-343:
    • 13, 19ab, 27, 29
    • You won't necessarily be able to do all of these (yet)--we'll learn lots more math on Monday--but you can definitely get some of this done if you like!
