Monday HW!

Monday's HW:
  • This is definitely one of the longest homework assignments I've given you this year--hopefully you got a head start this weekend....
  • However, this is also a GREAT assignment in the sense that it reviews the majority of things we need to know about linear regression and scatterplots so far!
  • Page 194-195: 41, 47
    • All parts! It looks short but 41 has a-g and 47 has a-f
    • For both of these you need to write the equation of the LSRL from a "computer output..."
      • The slope is always the coefficient to the x variable 
      • The y intercept is always the "constant"
      • So, for example for 41 the slope is the 0.004 and the y-intercept is the 15.3066
      • Or for 47 the slope is the -3.23 and the y-intercept is the 1676 (all the other stuff in 47 is irrelevant)
    • For 41f when the question asks, "Does this plot show evidence of a violation..." that's just a confusing way of asking is a linear model appropriate? Or is one of those conditions violated?

STAMPS ARE DUE WEDNESDAY!
  • All stamps are due Wednesday! These count as a classwork grade! And it's a pretty big classwork grade (largest of the quarter) since it's for all of our warmups combined!
  • What do I do?
    • Gather all your stamps. You are literally looking for a red stamp, not a paper titled "stamp." 
    • Somehow fasten/get all your stamps together
      • Clip them all together
      • Put them all in an envelope or folder
      • Some students cut out the stamps and glue them to a piece of paper or put them in a baggie
      • You can do whatever works for you!
    • Count all your stamps. Count them again.
    • Write the total and your name on the front of your stamp.
      • Double check your count.
      • I will randomly select 5 names from each class and re-count these peoples' stamps; if your total is incorrect you will be given a 0.
    • You must do this outside of class. If you count/gather your stamps in class you will be given a 0. 

And here's the plan for the rest of the unit (this week and next week):
  • Mon (10/28): AP FR Group Work (ch. 7/8)
  • Tues (10/29): How can we write the equation of the LSRL algebraically? How can we read computer outputs? (finish ch. 8)
  • Weds (10/30: Ch. 9 Notes (Outliers, Leverage, Influential Points)
  • Thurs (10/31): Ch. 8 Vocab Quiz + Ch. 9 Notes (Outliers, Leverage, Influential Points)
  • Fri (11/1): Outliers, Leverage, Influential Points (ch. 9)
  • Mon (11/4): What does re-expressing data mean? (ch. 10)
  • Tues (11/5): No school (Election Day)
  • Weds (11/6): Unit 2 Vocabulary Exam (25 min) + AP MC
  • Thurs (11/7): Unit 2 AP FR and AP MC Exam
  • Fri (11/8): Probability Intro Classwork! (new unit; ch. 14) 
    • *Note: I will be out on this day; you will have a graded classwork with the sub
