Tuesday HW

Tonight, please complete the following in your textbook:

Pages 91-95: 5b, 11ab, 17, 24abc, 27, 29, (also think about 24de, but you don't have to write anything)

  • Be thorough--no lazy answers! Answer as you would on the AP exam! ("You play how you practice.")
    • For 5b I should see some writing--go beyond a one word answer and specifically tell me how the range, IQR, standard deviation would change (or if they would stay the same)
      • I'm not looking for a paragraph, just some quality thoughts that show effort!
    • You need to know this for 11a and 17 and 29cd:
      • Appropriate measures of center/spread:
        • Skewed: use median and IQR
        • Symmetric: use mean and standard deviation
    • For 27 pay attention to the scaling on the axes!
    • For 29a and 29b I should see a sentence written! Be detailed! No laziness!
  • Always check your answers in the back of the book! And if you get stuck on a problem maybe peek at the answer and try to work backwards--but then write down a correct response so I can give you credit!
    • Working backwards from an answer to develop understanding is NOT the same as copying the answers from the back of the book!
