Comparing Double Line Graphs and Box Plots

Students are given a data table and are asked to look at the double-line graph to understand the trends that they observe in regards to indoor and drive-in movie theaters. They are then asked to investigate the trends that are presented to them when a box plot is created with the same data. Stud...

F Distribution

Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...

What is a p-value?

This lesson involves beginning with a null hypothesis specifying the mean of a normally distributed population with a given standard deviation.

Exploring the Normal Curve Family

Students will investigate the relationship of the equation of a normal curve to its graph. They will use a slider to change the values of two parameters, m and s, to investigate their effects on the normal curve, noting in particular that m represents the location of the mean and that s represent...
