Stratified Sampling

This lesson involves determining which of three different sampling methods - a simple random selection design and two stratified selection designs - would be most beneficial in selecting a survey sample within a given context.

Standard Error and Sampling Means

This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.

Finding Extraneous Solutions

Students will solve different types of equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these "extra" solutions appear.

Binomial Experiments

Students use the multiplication rule for independent events to find the probability of the first success in the nth trial. Students use their results to derive and test a general formula. Then, students expand on this foundation to derive and test a rule for the probability of x successes in n tr...
