2 Slide 4 / 241 Sets Return to Table of Contents Slide 5 / 241 Goals and Objectives Students will be able to use characteristics of problems, including unions, intersections and complement, to describe events with appropriate set notation and Venn Diagrams. Why do we need this? Slide 6 / 241 Being able to categorize and describe situations allows us to analyze problems that we are presented with in their most basic forms. Many different fields need to categorize elements they use or study. Businesses need to look at what they are offering, Biologists need to organize material they are studying and even you will need to categorize different options for your living situation, such as insurance, in the future.

3 Vocabulary and Set Notation Slide 7 / 241 Sample Space - Set of all possible outcomes. Universe (U) - Set of all elements that need to be considered in the problem. Empty Set ( ) - The set that has no elements. Subset - a set that is a part of a larger set. Sets are usually denoted with uppercase letters and listed with brackets. For example: A = {-5, -2, 0, 1, 5} Create a Venn Diagram to match the information. Slide 8 / 241 U 7 A B A = {0, 2, 3, 7, 9} B = {1, 3, 7, 10} U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} Create a Venn Diagram to match the information. Slide 8 () / 241 U A A = {0, 2, 3, 7, 9} B = {1, 3, 7, 10} U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} 8 Teacher Notes 6 2 B Move the circles and numbers around to 9 mirror the given 10information

4 Data Displays Slide 9 / 241 Venn Diagrams are one example of a sample space that helps us organize information.you can also use charts, tables, graphs and tree diagrams just to name a few more. Tree Diagram for tossing a coin 3 times: Chart for rolling 2 dice (sums): H H T H T H T T H T H T H T Data Displays Slide 10 / 241 Use a sample space that helps organize the data effectively. For example, would you be able to effectively display a coin toss in a Venn Diagram or on a chart? Decide how to display the following information. 1. Survey results about what subject students like in school. 2. The different ways you can deal two cards from a deck of cards. 3. Results that compare the number of men and women that like chocolate ice cream over vanilla ice cream. 4. A poll on which grocery store people prefer to go to.

5 The Universe Slide 11 / 241 The Universe (U) is all aspects that should be considered in a situation. The Universe (U) is basically the same as a sample space also used in probability. Name the Universe (U) of the following: 1. Survey at a local college asking women what they are studying. 2. Calculating the probability that you would draw a red 10 out of a deck of cards. 3. Phone survey on who you will vote for in the U. S. Presidential race. The Universe Slide 11 () / 241 The Universe (U) is all aspects that should be considered in a 1.

Teacher Notes 3. Phone survey on who you will vote for in the U. S. Presidential race. Empty Set Slide 12 / 241 The Empty Set ( ) is the equivalent of zero when referring to sets. For example, if you asked people at a college their age, the number of people that answered "2 years old" would be. An example of a subset would be the numbers 2, -6, and 13 in the set of integers. An outcome is a result of an experiment or survey.

Slide 19 / 241 True False A C B

10 6 There are no elements of C that are not common to either set A or B, meaning that the set of numbers belonging to ONLY set C is { }. True False A True C Slide 19 () / 241 B Unions Slide 20 / 241 Unions (U) of two or more sets creates a set that includes everything in each set. A C Unions (U) are associated with "or." Examples: Shade in the areas! A U B = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12} B U C = {0, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12} (said "B union C") B Intersections Slide 21 / 241 Intersections ( ) of two or more sets indicates ONLY what is in BOTH sets. Intersections ( ) are associated with "and." Example: Shade in the areas! A B = {0, 3, 8} B C = {3, 4, 2} (said "B intersect C") A B C Way to remember the difference between " " and "U": The intersection symbol ( ) looks like a lowercase "n". The word "and" also has the lowercase "n" in it, so " " means "and".

B Complements Slide 23 / 241 One last aspect of sets for this unit are Complements. Complements of a set are all elements of the Universe that are NOT in the set. If U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and A = {0, 1, 2, 3}, then the complement of A is {4, 5, 6} There are several ways to denote a complement: ~A, A c, A' and not A In this unit, we will use "~A" or "not A"

12 Examples Slide 24 / If U = {all students in college} and A = {female students}, find ~A. 2. If U = {a traditional deck of cards} and B = {Clubs and Diamonds, find ~B. 3. If U = {the students at your school} and C = {students that like math}, find ~C. Examples Slide 24 () / If U = {all students in college} 1. ~A = and {male A = students} {female students}, find ~A. 2. ~B = {Spades and Hearts} 2. If U = {a traditional deck 3. of ~C cards} = {Students and B = that {Clubs do not and Diamonds, find ~B. like math} 3. If U = {the students at your school} and C = {students that like math}, find ~C.

17 Goals and Objectives Slide 32 / 241 Students will be able to verify that two events are independent or dependent and calculate the conditional probability of the events. As well, students will be able to translate their results using everyday language. Why do we need this? Slide 33 / 241 Deciding things such as the cost of insurance can get very complicated. These decisions need to be based on many different elements. For example, who should pay more for health care: a person who smokes or a person who does not smoke? What about car insurance: a female driver, age 45, that drives a brand new Camaro or a 17 year old male driving a used Honda Civic? Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 34 / 241 Independent events (or mutually exclusive events) are events whose outcomes are not affected by the other event. For example, the fact that a heads was thrown on a fair coin is not affected by the fact that a 6 of hearts was drawn out of a traditional deck of cards. Dependent events are events whose outcomes are affected by another event. Three sixes taken out of a deck of cards and not replaced directly affects the probability that you will draw another 6 next.

18 Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 35 / 241 You can also relate this to everyday situations: 1. Are you independent of, or dependent on, your parents and guardians right now? 2. True or false: Smoking causes lung cancer. Is this a dependent or an independent event? 3. Is how you do on a test based on how others study? Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 35 () / 241 You can also relate this to everyday situations: Discuss the different 1. Are you independent of, or dependent scenarios on, involved. your parents and guardians right now? 2. True or false: Smoking causes lung cancer. Is this a dependent or an independent event? 3. Is how you do on a test based on how others study? Teacher Notes Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 36 / 241 Since many of these situations are based on specific circumstances, we can use probability to study them. The 45 year old female driving a Camaro may have a terrible driving record. Therefore, what she pays for insurance will be dependent on her previous driving and she gets an extremely high rate. The probability she will have another accident is high. While not every smoker will get lung cancer, the probability that people get lung cancer if they smoke is very high. Probability allows us to make predictions! And, therefore, choices.

Yes No Slide 37 / When renting two cars, you decide to choose one of the blue cars. Your friend then chooses one of the red cars. Are these independent events? Yes No Yes. The fact that you chose blue does not have to affect that your friend chose red. Slide 37 () / 241

20 13 You choose to rent two cars. You choose the only blue car. Your friend chooses a red car. These are independent events. True False Slide 38 / You choose to rent two cars. You choose the only blue car. Your friend chooses a red car. These are independent events. True False False. Because you chose the only blue car, your friend cannot choose blue. Slide 38 () / The probability that you will get lung cancer if you smoke is the same as the probability of you being a smoker if you have lung cancer. True False Slide 39 / 241

21 14 The probability that you will get lung cancer if you smoke is the same as the probability of you being a smoker if you have lung cancer. True False False. You would have a 10 per cent chance of getting lung cancer by the age of 75 if you did not stop smoking by Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among both men and women in the United States, and 90 percent of lung cancer deaths among men and approximately 80 percent of lung cancer deaths among women are due to smoking. Slide 39 () / 241 Review of General Probability Slide 40 / Find the probability of drawing a 6 of clubs followed by a 5 of hearts without replacement. 2. Calculate the probability of throwing 3 heads in a row. 3. There are 20 marbles in a bag. 10 are blue, 4 are red and 6 are white. You draw out two marbles, one at a time, and do not replace them. Calculate the probability of drawing a red marble first, and then a white marble.

22 Review of Mutually Exclusive Events and the Addition Law of Probability Slide 41 / 241 Mutually Exclusive events (or disjoint events) are two events that have no outcomes in common. For example, rolling a number on a number cube and drawing a card out of a deck are mutually exclusive. Mutually exclusive events A and B satisfy P(A B) =. Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 42 / 241 Drawing a 6 and drawing a red card from a traditional deck of cards are not mutually exclusive events because two of the 6's are red. These are not mutually exclusive and known as overlapping events. Overlapping events A and B satisfy P(A B). Addition Law of Probability Slide 43 / 241 Using the Addition Law of Probability: if two events are mutually exclusive, then P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) if two events are overlapping, then P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A B)

23 Independence and Conditional Probability Slide 44 / 241 Mutually Exclusive Overlapping P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A B) Find the probability that Find the probability that you you roll a 6 on a green draw a face card or a red number cube or a 3 on a card. red number cube.

27 Conditional Probability Slide 50 / 241 Conditional Probability is the probability of an event (B), given that another (A) has already occurred. The notation for conditional probability is P(B A) or P(B given A). To calculate conditional probability, use: These events are only independent if: Conditional Probability Slide 50 () / 241 Conditional Probability is the probability Be sure students of an event (B), given that another (A) has already understand occurred. to The divide notation by for conditional probability is P(B A) the or P(B probability given A). of the first event. Teacher Notes To calculate conditional probability, use: These events are only independent if: To calculate P(B A), we use what is given, or P(A) P(B), if the events are independent and P(A) P(B A) if the events are dependent.

28 Venn Diagrams Slide 52 / 241 In Venn Diagrams, obviously P(A B) is the intersection of A and B. Use numbers from the diagram for calculations. P(A) = 30% A 20% 10% 50% B P(B) = 60% P(A B) **Add probabilities in all of A to get P(A) and all of B to get P(B). Example Slide 53 / 241 A bag contains plastic disks with numbers on them. You must choose two disks, one at a time without replacing them. The probability that the first disk is odd and the second disk even is The probability that the first disk is odd is What is the probability of drawing an even number on the second draw given that the first disk was odd?

71 Why do we need this? Slide 130 / 241 In short, the standard deviation of data represents how close the data is to its mean. It is used to report such things as results from political polls and data from medical experiments. We need to understand how these numbers are calculated to make informed decisions. Graphs Slide 131 / 241 Check out the following graphs. What do they have in common? Diastolic Blood Pressure Calories in French Fries Intervals of Peaks of Heartbeats Graphs Slide 131 () / 241 Check out the following graphs. What do they have in common? Diastolic Blood Pressure Calories in French Fries Teacher Notes Intervals of Peaks of Heartbeats Discuss both the fact that they are all "curved" the same and that the graphs are of different aspects of life.

72 Normal Distribution Slide 132 / 241 Many different aspects of life, when measured and graphed, fit this type of distribution. Imagine a what the graph of height for humans, weight for bears or size of homes would look like. Most of the data would be around the same number (the mean), yet there would be some that would be larger or smaller. Finally, you would have the extremes that would be rare. This is called a Normal Distribution. Normal Distribution Slide 133 / 241 Normal Distributions are very useful when analyzing data. It allows you to calculate the probability that an event will happen as well as a percentile ranking of scores. Consider the following examples... Normal Distribution Slide 134 / 241 A tennis ball manufacturer measures the height their tennis balls bounce after dropping them from 5 feet off of the ground. The balls will not bounce the same height each time, but should be very close. A graph of this, after many trials, would begin to resemble a normal distribution. From here, you can calculate a mean height of the ball and use that to test other tennis balls from the factory to make sure that the quality is consistent. The blue shaded area would represent the range of acceptable heights.

73 Normal Distribution A particular engineering school at a university prides itself on producing high quality engineers. Each class coming through has to take an introductory physics class. The professor uses a normal distribution to calculate grades such that only the top 5% of students get As. This ensures the course is challenging and that the best are the ones that continue on. Slide 135 / 241 *note: graph does not represent top 5% with As. Normal Distribution Slide 136 / 241 Using the mean and standard deviation takes into account different spreads of the graph. In fact, knowing the standard deviation of a study can tell you how reliable the study is. Small standard deviations indicate that the mean is a good representation of the information. Large standard deviations tell you that the data was actually very spread out and the mean may not be reliable. Small σ = small spread Large σ = large spread Normal Curve Slide 137 / 241 Normal Curves are created using the mean (μ or x) of the data and the standard deviation (σ). mean

Teacher Notes Normal Distribution Slide 138 / 241 Much of the time, instead of having more complicated numbers for μ ± σ, we write 0, ±1 or ±2 representing the number of standard deviations from the mean as shown below. These numbers are also known as z-scores. mean Normal Distribution Slide 138 () / 241 Much of the time, instead of having more complicated numbers for μ ± σ, we write 0, ±1 or ±2 representing the number of standard deviations from the mean as shown below. These numbers are also known as z-scores. Teacher Notes mean Take the time to point out the different parts of the graph

75 Normal Distribution Slide 139 / 241 In normal distributions, the area under the curve is what is used to calculate percentages or probabilities. These numbers follow what is called the Empirical Rule and is the same for each distribution. 68% of all data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean. 95% of all data falls within 2 standard deviations of the mean. 99.7% of all data falls within 3 standard deviations of the mean. The graph on the next page is an excellent illustration of this. Normal Distribution Slide 140 / 241 Mean Normal Distribution Slide 140 () / 241 Teacher Notes Point Mean out the different areas of the graph. Take into account the different notations and realize that students will struggle with the amount of information.

Chart for Examples Slide 142 / 241 Use this chart to answer the following questions. Chart for Examples Slide 142 () / 241 Use this chart to answer the following questions. Teacher Notes This chart is particularly useful because it is divided into half standard deviations. It would be a typical graph given on a standardized test if a calculator was not allowed. It is also easy to memorize.

Two-Way Frequency Tables Slide 170 / 241 In this section, we are going to study Two-Way Frequency Tables. These displays allow us to study situations that have more than one variable such as how many men and women that exercise regularly. The chart below shows a survey of 100 people. Two-Way Frequency Tables Slide 171 / 241 Two-Way Frequency Tables connect the collection of data with probability. Using these tables, we can calculate three different frequencies that are very useful when discussing results: 1. Joint Relative Frequency 2. Marginal Relative Frequency 3. Conditional Relative Frequency

93 Two-Way Frequency Tables Slide 172 / 241 The yellow boxes represent Joint Relative Frequency and the pink boxes represent Marginal Relative Frequency. Joint Relative Frequency is found by dividing the number in that category by the total observations or outcomes. Marginal Relative Frequency is found by totaling the rows and columns.

110 Why do we need this? Slide 200 / 241 Everyone needs to learn appropriate ways to interpret statistical analyses. Just because someone comes up with a survey and publicizes their results, does not mean that the survey has validity. In today's society, we need to have educated opinions and to question what we are told in the media. Sampling Slide 201 / 241 Sampling is a method of getting information about a large population without having to test or ask each element of the population. How many of you have gotten a phone call requesting that you answer survey questions? Such sampling allows the company or agency to get an idea of what people think or, especially, how they will vote. Sampling Slide 202 / 241 By choosing a certain number of elements to be a sample, you can efficiently gather results and make a quantitative statement about the entire population. This method is used in many different situations. Some examples include: a) quality control in a parts factory or in food production, b) experimentation with different medical treatments, and c) predicting who or what people vote for.

111 Sampling Slide 203 / 241 There are several aspects of sampling that deserve attention: 1) randomization and bias, 2) sample size, and 3) margin of error. 75 Which of the following samples would most accurately represent the way people would vote on lowering the drinking age to 18? Slide 204 / 241 A Polling 100 random students at all college campuses. B Asking 10 mothers at a Mother's Against Drunk Driving meeting. C Phoning 1000 random households between 10 am and 1 pm. D Phoning 10,000 random households between 5 pm and 9 pm. 75 Which of the following samples would most accurately represent the way people would vote on lowering the drinking age to 18?

D Phoning 10,000 random households between 5 pm and 9 pm.

112 76 Which of the following samples would most accurately represent what the most popular clothing stores are in the U.S.? A Polling 2000 shoppers in a mall. B As they come off of the course, asking 2000 golfers at popular clubs where they like to shop for clothes. C Ask 2000 random females between the ages of 12 and 1 D Question 2000 fishermen at a fishing convention. Slide 205 / Which of the following samples would most accurately represent what the most popular clothing stores are in the U.S.? A Polling 2000 shoppers in a mall.

C Ask 2000 random females between the ages of 12 and 1 D Question 2000 Depending fishermen on at the a goal fishing of the convention. survey, all answers may be viable. Discuss what company would value each sample. Slide 205 () / 241 Sampling Slide 206 / 241 As in the last examples, different samples may get different results. Knowing the purpose of the sampling is very important. If the sample size is too small, if it is not randomized or if the method of obtaining samples is not well thought out, you will get biased results.

113 Sampling - Bias Slide 207 / 241 Bias comes from how a question is asked as well as who is being asked. Surveys or statistics that are biased do not return valid results. For example, if you ask men at an electrician's convention which purse they prefer, would you get valid answers? It is important for questions or surveys to be unbiased. That way, the results mean something. Sampling - Sample Size Slide 208 / 241 Once a sampling method has been well thought out and proven not to be biased, one must consider sample size. As a rule, small sample sizes will result in a large variation while larger sample sizes result in less variation. Sampling - Example Slide 209 / 241 For example: You are a quality control manager at an ice cream factory. Out of the 4,000 gallons of ice cream they produce in one day, you choose 4 of those gallons to pull off of the line to check for quality. a) Is this enough? b) If not, decide on a range of values that would be sufficient.

Pose the question about what b) If not, decide on a range "sufficient" of values means. that would be sufficient. Teacher Notes Margin of Error One way businesses and organizations calculate the answer to "what is sufficient" is to decide on the margin of error that they want to be within. We have all seen margins of error reported in polls. Although, they are usually an add-on at the end. Slide 210 / 241 ** Margin of Error What this means is that Obama actually had a range of votes from 47.8% to 56.2% and Romney had a range that was from 36.8% to 45.2%. If the numbers were looked at a bit differently, it could be a much closer race and lead to reports such as this: Slide 211 / 241 **

115 Margin of Error Slide 212 / 241 **The margin of error represents an interval that would contain the true population parameter and usually has a 95% confidence level which is two standard deviations. In its simplest form, we can use the margin of error to calculate a sample size as well as use the sample size to calculate the margin of error. This is generally used for surveys that are going to be conducted in the future. To do this, use the formula: M = margin of error n = sample size Margin of Error Slide 213 / 241 At the ice cream factory, calculate the margin of error if you used a sample of 4 gallons out of the What is the margin of error if you used a sample of 400?

116 Margin of Error Slide 214 / 241 Likewise, you can use a desired margin of error to find your sample size. Say that you wanted to have a margin of error of 3% when testing quality of the ice cream. Calculate the sample size: Is your answer reasonable in this situation?

If their margin of error was ±0.25% and they manufactured 5000 toy cars, what is the largest number of cars that could be defective (with a 95% confidence level)? Slide 219 / Quality control reported that 2% of the toy cars being manufactured in March of 2010 were defective. If their margin of error was ±0.25% and they manufactured 5000 toy cars, what is the largest 112 cars number of cars that could be defective (with a 95% confidence level)? The interval of confidence is 1.75% to 2.25%. Therefore, that 2.25% of 5,000, which is 112. Slide 219 () / 241

120 Margin of Error Slide 220 / 241 The margin of error calculated by the formula is a very simplified, general method. It will give you the largest possible margin of error and is a good estimate of the numbers you are looking for, but is not as accurate as it could be. The following formulas are used to calculate margin of error a bit more accurately. We will use only the one above and the second below. p = proportion in a decimal n = sample size σ = standard deviation n = sample size Margin of Error Slide 221 / 241 Margins of error can also be calculated via simulation models for random sampling. Someone has made a claim that 45% of the students at USA High School have Smart Phones. A student from that school took a survey during one of her classes and found that out of an English class of 30 students, 11 students had a Smart Phone, which is approximately 37% of her class. Can this original claim be true? Margin of Error Slide 221 () / 241 Margins of error can also be calculated via simulation models for random sampling. Lead students in a short discussion. They should come Someone has made a claim to that the 45% conclusion of the students that, yes, at the USA High School have Smart Phones. claim A student could be from true, that but school the took a survey during one of her classes sample and size found was that too small out of to an English class of 30 students, 11 students guarantee had a it. Smart Phone, which is approximately 37% of her class. Can this original claim be true? Teacher Notes

121 Margin of Error Slide 222 / 241 Since the sample size was too small to support the claim, we can use a simulation model to find a margin of error. Then, if the original claim falls inside of the confidence interval, we can support that claim. Margin of Error Slide 223 / 241 Margins of error can also be used to decide if a results of particular experiment are relevant. For example, if 45% of a sample population voted for Jane Doe with a margin of error of ±3%, you could predict that a second or third survey would return results that are in the confidence interval of 42% to 48%. To generalize, we can make a claim (or hypothesis) about a particular event by taking a survey and computing results. From those results, we can make further claims that can be proven or disproved based on the results falling within the original confidence interval. If the expectation a particular hypothesis does not fall within the interval, the hypothesis could be rejected.

Calculator Simulations Slide 229 / 241 Go back to one of our earlier problems... Someone has made a claim that 45% of the students at USA High School have Smart Phones. A student from that school took a survey during one of her classes and found that, out of an English class of 30 students, 11 students had a Smart Phone, which is approximately 37% of her class. Mathematically prove that this original claim is true. A sample size of 30 is way too small to make a decision, so let's use simulations to develop a mean and a margin of error for this problem. Get out your calculator again.

124 Calculator Simulations Slide 230 / 241 Since 37% of the students in the class had a Smart Phone, assign the numbers 1 to 37 as students having a Smart Phone. Therefore, 38 to 100 will represent students not having a Smart Phone. In your calculator, do randint(1, 100, 100). Store it in L 1.
