Make a scatter plot of your results. Is there an association with the time a student wakes up and how long it takes them to get ready? 30

31 Line of Best Fit Return to Table of Contents 31

32 Line of Best Fit Bivariate data plotted on a scatter plot shows us negative or positive association (correlation). A line of best fit, or trend line, can help us predict outcomes using the data that you already have. It is drawn on a scatter plot that best fits the data points. 32

33 Line of Best Fit Notice that the points form a linear like pattern. To draw a line of best fit, use two points so that the line is as close as possible to the data points. Our line is drawn so that it fits as close as possible to the data points. This line was drawn through (35,82) and (50,90). 33

34 Line of Best Fit Test Score Time spent studying Predict the test score of someone who spends 52 minutes studying. Predict the test score of someone who spends 75 minutes studying. 34

35 Line of Best Fit Shoe size & Height height in inches Draw a line of best fit, or trend line, on this graph. shoe size Predict the height of a person who wears a size 8 shoe. Predict the shoe size of a person who is 50 inches tall. 35

36 9 Consider the scatter graph to answer the following: Which 2 points would give the best line of fit? A A and D B B and C C C and D D there is no pattern A B C D X Y Answer 36

37 10 Consider the scatter graph to answer the following: Which 2 points would give the best line of fit? A A and D B B and C C C and D D there is no pattern B C D X Y A Answer 37

42 Determining the Prediction Equation Return to Table of Contents 42

43 Line of Best Fit The points form a linear like pattern, so use two of the points to draw a line of best fit. Our line is drawn so that it fits as close as possible to the data points. This line was drawn through (35,82) and (50,90). 43

44 Prediction Equation Use the two points that formed the line to write an equation for the line. Find m Find b Where S is the score for t minutes of studying. This equation is called the Prediction Equation. The slope also shows that a student's score will increase by 8 for every 15 minutes of studying they do. 44

45 Prediction Equation Prediction Equations can be used to predict other related values. If a person studies 15 minutes, what would be the predicted score? This is an extrapolation, because the time was outside the range of the original times. 45

46 Prediction Equation If a person studies 42 minutes, what would be the predicted score? This is an interpolation, because the time was inside the range of the original times. 46

47 Prediction Equation Interpolations are more accurate because they are within the set. The farther points are away from the data set the less reliable the prediction. Using the same prediction equation, consider: If a person studies 120 minutes, what will be their score? What is wrong with this prediction? 47

48 Prediction Equation If a student got an 80 on the test, What would be the predicted length of their study time? The student studied about 31 minutes. 48

67 Two Way Tables Return to Table of Contents 67

68 Two Way Tables We can also organize data gathered in a two way table. Two way tables display information as it pertains to two different categories. Here is an example of a two way table: Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total

69 Two Way Tables What does the two way table show us? The table below shows information gathered from 30 students. They were asked if they took a bus or a bicycle to school. Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total

70 Two Way Tables As you can see from the table, some students take the bus, other students ride their bicycles, take the bus or ride a bicycle to school. Several students do not take a bus nor ride their bicycles to school. Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Let's answer some questions using the data from the table. 70

71 30 From this table, how many students take the bus or ride their bicycle to school? Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Answer 71

74 33 How many students ride their bicycles to school, but do not take the bus? Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Answer 74

75 Two Way Tables Henry surveyed students from several classes to find out if they did chores and received an allowance. 65 students did chores. Of those 65 students, 49 received an allowance. There were 26 students that did not do chores and did not receive an allowance. 10 students that did not do chores, but received an allowance. Set up your table, and label the categories. Chores No Chores Total Allowance No Allowance Total 75

76 Two Way Tables 65 students did chores. Where would you write that number? Allowance No Allowance Total Chores 65 No Chores Total Notice that the "Chores" and "No Chores" categories are in the rows, and the "Allowance" and "No Allowance" categories are in the columns. 76

77 Two Way Tables Of those 65 students, 49 received an allowance. Where would you write the 49? Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Look at the "Chores" category, then "Allowance" since the 49 students who did chores received an allowance. 77

78 Two Way Tables There were 26 students that did not do chores and did not receive an allowance. Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores 26 Total Look at the "No Chores" category and "No Allowance" category. 78

79 Two Way Tables 10 students that did not do chores, but received an allowance. Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Look for the "No Chores" category then "Allowance" category. 79

80 Allowance Two Way Tables This is the table filled using the information that was given. Although some of the cells are not filled, you can easily find the rest of the information with simple math. No Allowance Total Chores = No Chores = 36 Total = = = 101 or = 101 If you did your math correctly, the total row and column should be the same. 80

81 Two Way Tables Here is the final table. Now you can answer some questions using the data. Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total

82 34 How many students took this survey? Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Answer 82

83 35 How many students do chores, but do not receive an allowance? Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Answer 83

85 Two Way Tables Survey your class to find out if each student has a laptop computer and/or desktop computer at home. Make a two way table showing your results. Desktop Computer No Desktop Computer Laptop Computer No Laptop Computer Total Total 85

86 Relative Frequency Using two way tables, we can calculate relative frequencies. Relative frequencies are ratios that compares the value of a certain category to the subtotal in that category. As you have previously learned, the frequency is the quantity of just how many of a certain event occurs. Relative frequency is how many compared to the subtotal. The relative frequency is written as a fraction or decimal. 86

87 Relative Frequency Example: There are 12 girls in a class of 20 students. The frequency of number of girls in a class is 12. The relative frequency of the number of girls in the class is or What is the frequency of girls in your class? What is the relative frequency? What is the frequency of boys in your class? What is the relative frequency? 87

88 Relative Frequency Calculate the relative frequency for the two way table from earlier by row and then by column. Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total

89 Relative Frequency For this cell, the relative frequency of students taking a bicycle to school or the bus to school is divided by the total number of students that take the bus to school. By row: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total = = =

90 Relative Frequency For relative frequency by column, the number of students that take a bicycle to school or take a bus to school is divided by the number of students that take a bicycle to school. By column: Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total

91 Relative Frequency Let's answer some questions using the relative frequencies. What is the relative frequency of students that take a bicycle to school and also take a bus to all students taking a bus to school? By row: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total = = = 1.00 Answer 91

92 Relative Frequency What is the relative frequency of students that do not take a bicycle to school and do not take a bus to all students that do not take a bus to school? By row: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total = = = 1.00 Answer 92

93 37 What is the relative frequency of students that take a bicycle to school but do not take a bus to the total number of students that do not take the bus? By row: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total = = = 1.00 Answer 93

94 38 What is the relative frequency of the students that do not take a bicycle to school, but do take the bus to the all the students that take the bus to school? By row: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total = = = 1.00 Answer 94

95 39 By Column: What is the relative frequency of students that take a bicycle to school and also take a bus to school, to the total number of students that take a bicycle to school? By column: Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Total Answer 95

96 40 What is the relative frequency of students that do not take a bicycle to school and do not take the school bus to the total number of students that do not take a bicycle to school? By column: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Total Answer 96

97 41 What is the relative frequency of students that take a bicycle to school, but do not take the bus to all students that take a bicycle to school? By column: Take the Bus to School Do Not Take the Bus to School Take a Bicycle to School Do Not Take a Bicycle to School Total Total Answer 97

98 Relative Frequency By Row Use the following two way table to calculate the relative frequencies by row. Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Chores No Chores Total Allowance No Allowance Total 98

99 Relative Frequency Why do we calculate relative frequencies? We can use relative frequencies to determine if there is an association between the two categories. For example, does there seem to be a relationship between whether or not a student receives an allowance compared to whether or not a student does chores? By row: Allowance No Allowance Total Chores 1.00 No Chores 1.00 Total 1.00 Approximately 0.75 or 75% of students that receive an allowance do chores, and out of those that do chores only 0.25 or 25% of students receive no allowance. 99

100 Relative Frequency By Column Use the following two way table to calculate the relative frequencies by column. Allowance No Allowance Total Chores No Chores Total Chores Allowance No Allowance Total Is there a relationship between students that do chores to the amount of students that receive an allowance? No Chores Total 100

101 Two way Table Construct a two way table using the following information. Kelly found that 49 people had dogs in her school. Out of the 49 people, 30 people had cats. 50 people had cats in her school. 22 people had neither cats nor dogs at home. Dog No Dog Total Cat No Cat Total 101

102 Relative Frequency Using the two way table, calculate the relative frequencies by column and by row. By row: Dog No Dog Total Cat No Cat Total By column: Dog No Dog Total Cat No Cat Total 102

103 42 What is the relative frequency of the people who have a cat and a dog at home to the number of people that have cats? Dog No Dog Total Cat No Cat Total Cat No Cat Total Dog Answer No Dog Total
