Statistics and Probability

  • Prioritized Standards

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.A.1

    Represent data with plots on the real number line (dot plots, histograms, and box plots).

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.A.2

    Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.

  • Prioritized Standards

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.B.5

    Summarize categorical data for two categories in two-way frequency tables. Interpret relative frequencies in the context of the data (including joint, marginal, and conditional relative frequencies). Recognize possible associations and trends in the data.

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.A.2

    Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.B.6

    Represent data on two quantitative variables on a scatter plot, and describe how the variables are related.

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.ID.C.8

    Compute (using technology) and interpret the correlation coefficient of a linear fit.

  • Prioritized Standards

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.CP.A.2

    Understand that two events A and B are independent if the probability of A and B occurring together is the product of their probabilities, and use this characterization to determine if they are independent.

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.CP.B.6

    Find the conditional probability of A given B as the fraction of B's outcomes that also belong to A, and interpret the answer in terms of the model.

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.HSS.CP.B.9

    (+) Use permutations and combinations to compute probabilities of compound events and solve problems.
