Monday HW!

Tonight please complete the "Uncovering Expected Value" worksheet provided in class (or below).

• Usually with these types of problems the hardest part is creating the probability model
• Check out the image below--everything written in red is a "hint" to help with your homework in case you get stuck!
• You can also check your probabilities--the correct probabilities are in the table below!
• For #6, Interpret Expected Value, use this structure:
• "Based on the probability model, if we repeatedly _______________, we expect to ______________________. 
• Check out this question in the image below!

Also, remember that we have our chapter 15 quiz to start class tomorrow! Look over your weekend homework and today's stamp to study!

After our quiz tomorrow it's back to work on chapter 16 (random variables)--see you there!

Here's tonight's HW in case you lost yours or were out:

Tuesday night's homework will be in the book--if you like, here's the assignment so you can get a head start:

Page 381-383: 3/11, 5/13, 7, 15, 21

• The problems are written as 3/11 b/c #11 asks for the standard deviation of the probability model created in #3 (same for 5/13)
• To find standard deviation we will simply use our calculator (we can also use our calculator to find E(x))
• Check out the yellow box on page 372 to see how to use your calculator to find expected value and standard deviation
• For 3, 5, and 21 the hardest part of the question will likely be calculating the probabilities for our probability model! This requires us to consider all of the skills we learned in chapters 14/15!
