Testing Claims About Proportions

Students find z-scores and critical values to test claims about proportions. To verify the results, they find P-values by either finding the area under the curve with the Integral tool, or by using the 1-Prop z Test command.

Difference Between Two Proportions

Students use confidence intervals to estimate the difference of two population proportions. First they find the intervals by calculating the critical value and the margin of error. Then, they use the 2-propZInterval command. Students find confidence intervals for differences in proportions in real-life situations and use them to make judgments about certain claims. Last, they determine required sample size, n, when given a confidence interval and margin of error.

Comparing Two Means

In this activity, students will test hypotheses concerning means of two populations. They calculate the test statistic and the critical values and then graph the critical region and plot the value of the test statistic.

Independence Is the Word

Students use a simulation to find the experimental probability of independent events. They will find the sample space and then compare the experimental and theoretical probabilities.

Transforming Relationships

In this activity, students will assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot. They will also calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set. Students will then learn to transform one or two variables in the relationship to create a linear relationship.

Square it Up!

Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.

Comparing Prices

Students will compare average U.S. gasoline prices per gallon for two years. Then they will use the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) to measure the center and spread of price data.
