Quiz Tomorrow, HW Tonight!

Tonight please score your free response answers (last night's homework--see blog post below) using the rubrics provided in class!


**The answer key/rubric for #4b is pretty confusing...check it out...
  • 4b asks us why "this distinction--whether the songs were selected with our without replacement--is not important for the construction of the interval." Consider this--whether the songs were selected with or without replacement relates to independence; for instance, if songs are selected without replacement, we can't hear a song after it's played--so the probability we hear "The Weather" by Luke Christopher next depends on what was played previously...
  • What condition do we check that allows us to assume independence within our sample? (10% condition!)
  • So, this distinction is not important, because our sample of 50 songs is less than 10% of all 2,384 songs on the player!


The more effort you put into this homework the more you're studying for tomorrow's quiz!


Tomorrow's quiz (ch. 19):
  • 2 open ended
    • One open ended is just like #4a from tonight's homework!
  • 3 MC
  • And here's the content that might show up on your quiz--so know this stuff!
    • Find margin of error
    • Find sample size
    • Find confidence level (like #37 from our textbook hw)
    • Find the point estimate (p-hat) and/or margin of error given an interval (stuff Mr. Mason sent us)
    • Interpret confidence level
    • Estimate a proportion = create an interval (conditions, math, interpret interval)
    • Use a confidence interval to support/reject a claim
