EOCT Practice #2 Old Faithful, a geyser in Yellowstone National park, is renowned for erupting fairly regularly. In more recent times, it has become less predictable. It was observed that the time interval between eruptions was related to the duration of the most recent eruption. The distribution of its interval times for 2011 is shown below. a)Does the distribution seem normal, skewed, or uniform? b)What does the distribution tell you about the time between eruptions?

EOCT Practice #3 The top five salaries and bottom five salaries at Technology Incorporated are shown in the table below. a)Find the mean absolute deviation for each set of data. Round to the nearest hundredth. b) Compare the variations of the data sets. 7.46, 2.14

EOCT Practice #5 A teacher determined the median scores and interquartile ranges of scores for a test she gave to two classes. In Class 1, the median score was 70 points, and the interquartile range was 15 points. In Class 2, the median score was 75 points, and the interquartile range was 12 points. Which range of numbers includes only third quartile of scores for both classes? a)70 to 87 points b)70 to 85 points c)75 to 87 points d)75 to 85 points D

Probability is the measure of how likely an event is (written as a ratio)

Probability of an event The number of ways the event can occur divided by the total number of possible outcomes P(A) = The number of ways an event can occur Total number of possible outcomes

P(odd) = Example#1: You roll a six-sided die whose sides are numbered from 1 through 6. a) What is the probability of rolling an ODD number?

P(“t”) = b) What is the probability of rolling a number that starts with the letter “t”?

Example #2: A jar contains 6 red, 5 green, 8 blue and 3 yellow marbles. P(red) = P(green) = P(blue) = P(yellow) =
