Happy Thanksgiving (take home quiz)!

Hey everyone--don't procrastinate! Get your take home quiz done today or tomorrow so you can enjoy some time off! (Or procrastinate, I know I probably will).

1.) Please complete the take home quiz provided in class (or below)!

  • Use your notes to earn an A! (the Normal model stuff is from chapter 6)
  • For the first two pages show all work!
  • If you're curious the point values are marked on the image of the quiz below
  • Total = 23 point quiz
  • The more effort you put into this, the better prepared you are for our quizzes after break!
2.) Extra Credit Stamp #1 = 5 stamps
  • Question/Context = #8 from our ntoes...
    • Suppose we spin a roulette wheel 4 times: what is the probability that at least one of the spins lands on red? 
  • Extra credit stamp: rather than finding the probability that we get 0 reds and subtracting from 1, try the other way:
    • Find the probability we get exactly 1 red, or exactly 2 reds, or exactly 3 reds, or exactly 4 reds!
  • Show all work on separate paper (not in your notes) to turn in Monday
  • You should get the same answer as in class (0.9233)
  • See below for an image of this (which is also some notes from Friday)


3.) Extra Credit Stamp #2 = 3 stamps
  • What are five things you are thankful for? You must be thoughtful and reflective--truly give this some thought! You may think about this break specifically, or you may think about life in general; you may think about your friends, your family, school, your job--anything (or all of these)! 
  • Write these up (5 bullets) on a separate paper to turn in Monday!
Here is the take home quiz in case you were out (do it on separate paper, I'll give you a copy Monday): 


Have an awesome break everyone! Rest up, relax, and come ready for lots more probability on Monday! We'll be moving quickly--we have 3.5 weeks to finish our unit! (chapters 14-17)
