Tuesday HW = Sampling Distributions!

1.) Tomorrow we will start class with a 5-8 minute quiz--the quiz is entirely focused on the conditions.

  • Be sure to name the type of sampling distribution
  • Review your notes--know how to check conditions for either type of sampling distribution
  • Review the warmup about "which conditions fails?" 
  • Quiz:
    • 1 open ended: determine if a sampling distributions for means or proportions is appropriate (check conditions!)
    • 2 more: determine which conditions fails
2.) Tuesday's HW = finish today's classwork!
  • More Sampling Distributions! (HW. You--click me!)
  • Remember...
    • A question uses the sampling distribution for means ONLY if the question is focused on the MEAN of a sample!
      • There is one question on here that does not require the use of a sampling distribution....
  • Check conditions for #4!
  • Skip conditions for any multiple choice!
  • #7 is something new...here's what to do:
    • Assume that sigma = 1 (or any other number) and assume we use a sampling distribution for means (because that formula is easier to work with)
    • Calculate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution for means with sigma = 1 a sample size of 50.
    • Now, calculate the standard deviation with sigma = 1 and n = 200.
    • How did the standard deviation change? 
    • This is an idea called "diminishing returns" that we'll quickly discuss tomorrow.
3.) Textbook HW Questions and Some Notes....

  • 2010 AP FR (from class);

    • 2 HW questions (last night's HW)



4.) Tomorrow's HW = more sampling distributions!
