Designing a Study
There's a high probability (see what we did there?) that at some point in your probability/statistics unit,
your teacher will ask you to do a data-gathering statistics project. Don't worry, we can...
Mean, Median, Mode & Range
The most commonly used statistic is the average, or finding where the middle of the data lies. There are
three ways to measure the average: the mean, median, and mode. Why three ways? Goo...
Stem & Leaf Plots
Stem and Leaf Plots can be used to analyze data and display data all at the same time. This is a way of
showing each data value along with its relationship to the other values.If you turn a...
Histograms
Histograms are another convenient way to display data. A histogram looks similar to a bar graph, but
instead of plotting each individual data value on the x-axis (the horizontal one), a range o...
Box & Whisker Plots
Box-and-whisker plots are a handy way to display data broken into four quartiles, each with an equal
number of data values. The box-and-whisker plot doesn't show frequency, and it doesn't displa...
Scatter Plots & Correlation
Scatter plots are an awesome way to display two-variable data (that is, data with only two variables)
and make predictions based on the data. These types of plots show individual data values, a...
Evaluating Data & Making Conjectures
Ok, so by now we've worked our data hardcore in the exercises on the previous pages. We totaled raw
numbers, calculated averages, and made pretty plots and histograms to show off the data. Now...
Basic Probability
We think it's highly likely that you've already dealt with probability today. Did you see the weather
forecast? Is there a 30% chance of rain? Did you decide not to study for your foreign langu...
And vs. Or Probability
In probability, there's a very important distinction between the words and and or. And means that the
outcome has to satisfy both conditions at the same time. Or means that the outcome has to s...
Complementary & Mutually Exclusive Events
Complementary events are two outcomes of an event that are the only two possible outcomes. This is
like flipping a coin and getting heads or tails. Of course, there are no other options, so the...
Predicting vs. Observing Probability
There are two ways to calculate probability - either by using math to predict, or by actually observing
the event and keeping score. Theoretical probability uses math to predict the outcomes....
Compound Events
In the world of probability, compound events are probabilities of two or more things happening at
once. For example, what is the probability that you forgot to do your homework and there will b...
Basic Counting Principle
Now that you have learned all the hard ways to chart possible outcomes using organized lists, tree
diagrams, and area models, it's time to learn the elegant short cut. Basic counting principle:...
Factorials
Factorials help count things like arrangements of items or order of events. Let's say that you have six
books to organize on your bookshelf...Use a factorial to count how many possible ways yo...
