Example Question #42 : Statistics & Probability
A teacher is comparing two students' median test scores, as shown in the dot plots below. Which student had a higher median score, and what was this student's median score?
Student A-
Student A-
Student B-
Student B-
Student B-
The median is the middle number of a set of data points.
To solve for the median, we list our data points in order from least to greatest, and then find the number in the middle.
Student A:
Student B:
Student B has the higher median score,
Example Question #1 : Understand Probability Of A Chance Event: Ccss.Math.Content.7.Sp.C.5
Select the answer choice that has the greatest probability of occurring.
Using a standard deck of cards, drawing a of hearts
Using a standard deck of cards, drawing a of diamonds
Using a standard deck of cards, drawing a
Using a standard deck of cards, drawing a of spades
Using a standard deck of cards, drawing a
Probability is represented by a number between and
.
Probabilities are usually written in a fraction form that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. The greater the fraction—or number—then there is a better probability of the event occurring.
Each of our answer choices use a standard deck of cards, which has total cards.
First, let's find the probability of each event:
Drawing a of hearts: There is only one
of hearts in a standard deck; thus, the probability is:
Drawing a of diamonds: There is only one
of diamonds in a standard deck; thus, the probability is:
Drawing a of spades: There is only one
of spades in a standard deck; thus, the probability is:
Drawing a : There are four
s in a standard deck; thus, the probability is:
This is the greatest probability and the correct answer.
