Today, we started off a brand new page of mental math and continued some work with Statistics.
Mr. Maksymchuk started this lesson by asking us we think "standard deviation" means. Standard Deviation is a relative measure (to the data set) of how spread out the data set is. If the population standard deviation is really large, the data sat in very spread out. However, if it is really small (close to zero) then the data set is very clustered around the mean.
Next, we did an activity using our calculators involving "Normal Distribution." Also, refer to the following websites on the slide and see more on this topic.
Normal Distribution is based on a histogram with these labels.
Before we could conclude this lesson, we ran out of time. Tomorrow the scribe is Brydget. Have a great day everyone!!
