Grade 12 students in Manitoba learning Applied Math... They're in two different towns, and happen to be connected by Highway 10...They'll be learning with and from each other. Ryan Maksymchuk and Cam Bennet are teachers in Swan River and Dauphin, Manitoba, respectively. This is a bright idea that may encourage other teachers and students to consider collaborating with other learners in other places...It might work. It might not...Watch and see...

stats test Overview

Stats overview - test is Thursday

Mean, median and mode
Frequency Table

3.1 Types of distributions – Binomial – 5 step test
Binompdf command (eg. Exactly 17/20 free throws)

Standard Deviation – Kingston and Brooks Expressways

3.2 Mean and Standard Deviation
Mean of binomial distributions μ= np
Standard deviation

3.3 Normal Distribution
68 – 95 – 99% rule
Using “exact” z-scores ±1 ±2 ±3 σ

3.4 Standard Normal Distribution
- Using z-scores
- ShadeNorm – finds the % given z-scores

InvNorm - left to right
- finds z-score given %

3.5 Normal Approximation to the Binomial Distribution
npq > 10 μ= np
ShadeNorm

3.6 Confidence Intervals μ ± 1.96σ
1-Prop Z Int
Margin of error
% margin of error.
