5 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.

6 Slide 6 / 241 Why do we need this? 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.

7 Slide 7 / 241 Vocabulary and Set Notation 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}

8 Slide 8 / 241 Create a Venn Diagram to match the information. U 0 7 A 2 B A = {0, 2, 3, 7, 9} B = {1, 3, 7, 10} U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

9 Slide 8 (Answer) / 241 Create a Venn Diagram to match the information. U A 8 Teacher Notes 2 B Move the circles and numbers around to 9 mirror the given 10information. 6 3 [This object is a pull tab] 4 5 A = {0, 2, 3, 7, 9} B = {1, 3, 7, 10} U = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}

10 Slide 9 / 241 Data Displays 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

11 Slide 10 / 241 Data Displays 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.

This question brings up other concerns such as how many people were asked and other parameters we will address in the unit. 1. Survey results about what subject students [This object is like a pull in tab] 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.

13 Slide 11 / 241 The Universe 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.

[This object is a pull tab] 3. Phone survey on who you will vote for in the U. S. Presidential race.

15 Slide 12 / 241 Empty Set 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.

16 Slide 13 / 241 Example U A B C List the universe for this problem. 2. Name the different sets involved. 3. Find the subset that is in both A and B. 4. Find the subset that is in all sets A, B and C.

27 Slide 19 / 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 C B

28 Slide 19 (Answer) / 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 Answer A True C [This object is a pull tab] B

29 Slide 20 / 241 Unions 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

30 Slide 21 / 241 Intersections 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".

31 Slide 22 / 241 Unions and Intersections Unions (U) and Intersections ( ) are often combined. Find: 1. (A U C) B 2. A B C A C 3. (A C) U (B C) **Shade the diagram as you go to help. B

33 Slide 23 / 241 Complements 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"

34 Slide 24 / 241 Examples 1. 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.

35 Slide 24 (Answer) / 241 Examples 1. If U = {all students in college} 1. ~A = and {male A = students} {female students}, find ~A. 2. ~B = {Spades and Hearts} 2.

48 Slide 31 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability Return to Table of Contents

49 Slide 32 / 241 Goals and Objectives 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.

50 Slide 33 / 241 Why do we need this? 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?

51 Slide 34 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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.

52 Slide 35 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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?

53 Slide 35 (Answer) / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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 [This object is a pull tab]

54 Slide 36 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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.

56 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

57 Slide 37 (Answer) / 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 Answer Yes. The fact that you chose blue does not have to affect that your friend chose red. [This object is a pull tab]

58 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

59 Slide 38 (Answer) / You choose to rent two cars. You choose the only blue car. Your friend chooses a red car. These are independent events. True False Answer False. Because you chose the only blue car, your friend cannot choose blue. [This object is a pull tab]

60 Slide 39 / 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

61 Slide 39 (Answer) / 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 Answer 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.

62 Slide 40 / 241 Review of General Probability 1. 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.

63 Slide 40 (Answer) / 241 Review of General Probability 1. 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. Answer 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. **Remind students that probability can be a decimal, fraction or percentage. [This object is a pull tab]

64 Slide 41 / 241 Review of Mutually Exclusive Events and the Addition Law of Probability 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) =.

65 Slide 42 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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).

66 Slide 43 / 241 Addition Law of Probability 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)

67 Slide 44 / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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.

68 Slide 44 (Answer) / 241 Independence and Conditional Probability 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.

Teacher Notes To calculate conditional probability, use: These events are only independent if: [This object is a pull tab]

81 Slide 51 / 241 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. Independent Two cards are drawn one at a time, and are replaced. What is the probability of drawing two Aces? Conditional Probability Dependent Two cards are drawn one at a time, and are not replaced. What is the probability of drawing two Aces? click click click click click click click click

209 Slide 128 / 241 Standard Deviation and Normal Distribution Return to Table of Contents

210 Slide 129 / 241 Goals and Objectives Students will be able to calculate the standard deviation of a data set and analyze a a normal distribution.

211 Slide 130 / 241 Why do we need this? 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.

213 Slide 131 (Answer) / 241 Graphs Check out the following graphs. What do they have in common? Calories in French Fries Diastolic Blood Pressure 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. [This object is a pull tab]

214 Slide 132 / 241 Normal Distribution 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.

215 Slide 133 / 241 Normal Distribution 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...

216 Slide 134 / 241 Normal Distribution 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.

217 Slide 135 / 241 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. *note: graph does not represent top 5% with As. Normal Distribution

218 Slide 136 / 241 Normal Distribution 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

219 Slide 137 / 241 Normal Curve Normal Curves are created using the mean (μ or x) of the data and the standard deviation (σ). mean

221 Slide 138 / 241 Normal Distribution 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

222 Slide 138 (Answer) / 241 Normal Distribution 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. [This object is a pull tab]

223 Slide 139 / 241 Normal Distribution 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.

275 Slide 170 / 241 Two-Way Frequency Tables 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.

276 Slide 171 / 241 Two-Way Frequency Tables 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

277 Slide 172 / 241 Two-Way Frequency Tables 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.

295 Slide 181 / 241 Two-Way Frequency Tables From these frequencies, you can also find a useful comparison called Conditional Relative Frequency which is directly correlated to Conditional Probability. To find Conditional Relative Frequency, divide the joint relative frequency by the appropriate marginal relative frequency. For example, use the table to find the probability that if a cat was brought in to the clinic, it would not need blood work. Cats that did not need blood work. Cats that came in %

296 Slide 182 / 241 Conditional Relative Frequency and Conditional Probability Conditional Relative Frequency and Conditional Probability go hand in hand. In fact how statistics are reported usually involves some probability.

326 Slide 198 / 241 Sampling and Experiments Return to Table of Contents

327 Slide 199 / 241 Goals and Objectives Students will be able to recognize appropriate uses and models for statistics, justify their results using data or experimentation, and calculate a margin of error for sets of information.

328 Slide 200 / 241 Why do we need this? 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.

329 Slide 201 / 241 Sampling 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.

330 Slide 202 / 241 Sampling 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.

331 Slide 203 / 241 Sampling There are several aspects of sampling that deserve attention: 1) randomization and bias, 2) sample size, and 3) margin of error.

332 Slide 204 / Which of the following samples would most accurately represent the way people would vote on lowering the drinking age to 18? 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.

333 Slide 204 (Answer) / Which of the following samples would most accurately represent the way people would vote on lowering the drinking age to 18? A Polling 100 random students at all college campuses. B Asking 10 mothers at a Mother's Against Drunk Driving meeting.

D Phoning 10,000 random households between 5 pm and 9 pm. [This object is a pull tab] Answer D

334 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. 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.

335 Slide 205 (Answer) / 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. Answer Depending on the goal of the survey, all answers may be viable. Discuss what company would value each sample. [This object is a pull tab]

336 Slide 206 / 241 Sampling 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.

337 Slide 207 / 241 Sampling - Bias 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.

338 Slide 208 / 241 Sampling - Sample Size 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.

339 Slide 209 / 241 Sampling - Example 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.

340 Slide 209 (Answer) / 241 Sampling - Example 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 As choose a class, 4 of decide those what gallons would to pull off of the line to check for quality. be a reasonable amount to pull off of the line to test quality. a) Is this enough? Pose the question about what b) If not, decide on a range "sufficient" of values means. that would be sufficient. Teacher Notes [This object is a pull tab]

341 Slide 210 / 241 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. **

342 Slide 211 / 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: **

343 Slide 212 / 241 Margin of Error **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

344 Slide 213 / 241 Margin of Error 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?

356 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 number of cars that could be defective (with a 95% confidence level)?

357 Slide 219 (Answer) / 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)? Answer The interval of confidence is 1.75% to 2.25%. Therefore, that 2.25% of 5,000, which is 112. [This object is a pull tab]

358 Slide 220 / 241 Margin of Error 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

359 Slide 221 / 241 Margin of Error 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?

360 Slide 221 (Answer) / 241 Margin of Error 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 [This object is a pull tab]

361 Slide 222 / 241 Margin of Error 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.

362 Slide 223 / 241 Margin of Error 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.

369 Slide 229 / 241 Calculator Simulations 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.

370 Slide 230 / 241 Calculator Simulations 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.
