STUUUUDDDDYYYYYYYYY!!!!

*Sorry to be a downer, but if you have Principal's Bingo tomorrow during period A it would be a terrible idea to miss our test for Principal's Bingo. If you have a free period you can come do your test later in the day, but otherwise I would skip Bingo and get your test done.

It's not break yet. Come ready tomorrow. Make yourself proud, don't let yourself down on this test. STUDY, STUDY, STUDY = Do practice problems!

1.) Complete the review "packet" with some multiple choice and open ended provided in class!

    • Skip questions 5 and 6. Those are terrible questions.

      • For #2 it should say "use your answer to part D above"

    2.) AP Classroom!
    • I have assigned 2 multiple choice assignments and 1 open ended assignment in AP Classroom...
    • These will not be graded as a quiz or classwork, instead, these are tools you can use to study if you like!


    The key to studying is to first do the questions; then, check your work. However, don't just mark the wrong stuff wrong--that doesn't help you learn. If you answered a question incorrectly it's important you go back and try to figure out the correct approach! That's how you learn stuff!

    3.) What are some of the topics on tomorrow's test? 
    • 8 MC
    • 15 open ended (15 if I count each a,b,c as its own question)
    • Some topics to review: (all of this is covered in the review packets linked above)
      • "at least 1 problems" v. "exactly one" problems
        • Look at our first (ch. 14) quiz--know everything on here
      • Everything on all of your past quizzes--chapter 14 in class quiz, chapter 14/15 Thanksgiving break quiz, ch. 16 quiz
        • *No interpret expected value until Friday
      • Know when/how to work with Venn diagrams
        • Be able to create a Venn diagram and to find the overlap (like the soccer/bball problem in our notes)
      • Conditional probability
        • With two way tables
        • With Venn diagrams
        • With tree diagrams
      • Find probabilities with a normal model (normalcdf!)
      • Calculate probabilities "without replacement"--write out lines, use words (back to basics!)
      • Create and use tree diagrams!
      • Calculate expected value and/or create a probability model
      • Combine random variables--find the new mean and standard deviation
        • "Variances always add"
        • Look over the weekend HW--something like this on our test!
      • Shifting/Rescaling random variables--look over our stamp problem based on these ideas; the first question is a MC with a table listing "# of cubic yards"
      • If you do all of the review stuff linked above (under #1) you will cover all of these topics!
    4.) I will accept any missing homework assignments tomorrow for full credit.

    Feel free to send Remind messages with questions; see you all tomorrow! Come ready to earn an A!

    Vocab Test: if you're going to be here Friday I wouldn't worry about this, but if you have to do the test tomorrow because you'll be out, here's what you need to know:

    • 2-3 additional multiple choice, 1 open ended
      • Open Ended = interpret expected value
      • MC = more probability
        • Binompdf and binomcdf
        • Some stuff like Monday's HW
    • Matching Vocab: 24 terms
      • Probability
      • Independent (Events)
      • Disjoint/Mutually Exclusive (Events)
      • Law of Large Numbers
      • Law of Averages
      • Equally Likely
      • Sample Space
      • Complement
      • Conditional Probability 
      • Intersection
      • Union
      • Venn Diagram
      • Tree Diagram
      • Random Variable
      • Discrete Random Variable
      • Continuous Random Variable
      • Probability Model/Probability Distribution
      • Expected Value
      • Variance
      • Pythagorean Theorem of Statistics ("variances always add"
      • Shifting
      • Rescaling
      • Binomial Probability
      • Geometric Probability
    • Here is a link to the chapter 16 vocab quiz--we did not do this in class, but you can use it to study!
      • Then, if you review the ch. 14, 15, and 16 vocab quizzes you'll have every word on a quiz except for binomial probability and geometric probability
