Tuesday HW = AP MC!

Tonight's homework gives us some more practice with expected value (and a lil' review in #6)! 

These questions represent some great preparation for the AP exam, for our upcoming test, and for the expected value "warmup quiz" we'll start class with on Thursday!

Here's the homework questions and a few tips/comments:

  • AP MC Homework Tues 12/10 (Click Me!)
    • Answer every question!
    • Make notes/comments/show work to provide evidence that you actually worked hard on this and didn't just circle 7 answers!
    • You should definitely be able to do 1, 2, and 5 fairly easily. Don't overthink them!
    • We also have a stamp problem that was like #6 you can reference....
    • Even if you aren't sure how to do a question or show the exact/correct work in its entirety, try to use some "multiple choice strategies" and come up with an answer!
      • For example, #7 is the toughest question mathematically, but if you can't figure it out you can make an educated guess!
    • On the AP exam you would want to complete these in about 18 minutes. Maybe time yourself for practice! (But then if you didn't finish go back and do the rest, don't show me any incomplete homework! Practicing the math is more important than practicing the timing tonight).
    • I'll provide the answers and we'll go over any questions tomorrow in class.
Tomorrow we'll get back to "combining random variables" with the goal of finishing chapter 16 by the end of Friday! That'll leave us with 3 days to cover chapter 17 before our tests!
