Targets & Standards
In Algebra 2, students analyze and apply operations using multiple representations of functions to compare, interpret data, and make inferences. Functions include (but not limited to) linear, exponential, quadratic, absolute value, inverse, piecewise, cubic, polynomial, trigonometric, logarithms, etc. They use statistics in real world contexts to develop solutions.
Essential Standards
Level 4 of Target P - Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable. (DOK 1, 2)
S-ID.4 Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal distribution and to estimate population poercentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tanbles to estimate areas under the normal curve. (Modeling standard)
There are no substandards for this standard.
S-IC.B. Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies. (All modeling standards)
S-ID.3 Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each.
S-IC-4 Use data from a sample survey to estimate a population mean or proportion; develop a margin of error through the use of simulation models for random sampling.
S-IC-5 Use data from a randomized experiment to compare two treatments; use simulations to decide if differences between parameters are significant.
S-IC-6 Evaluate reports based on data.
Embed Understand and evaluate random processes underlying statistical experiments (All modeling standards):
S-IC.1 Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population.
S-IC.2. Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation. For example, a model says a spinning coin falls heads up with probability 0.5. Would a result of 5 tails in a row cause you to question the model?
