1. Warm Up Find the roots: 𝑥−3 4𝑥 2 +64 =0 2. Convert to radians
I can determine if a question is biased and determine is a sample is representative

5. Homework Questions Check your answer on the white board.
Make a note of what you want to go over next class

6. Polling Data
Without talking to anyone, answer the questions on the poll you are given
SKIP QUESTION 2
You may write on the half sheet

7. Proportion of “Yes” responses
Topic
Poll A
Proportion of “Yes” responses
Poll B
Do teenagers worry?
Skip Question 2
Violence affects young people?
Movie ratings effective?
Raise teacher pay?
Exercise?

8. Classwork Problems
Turn to page 54 Working in your table groups, complete problems 6-7 through 6-11 in your notebooks.

9. Sample Selection
We just talked about how the way a question is worded and impact the way the question is answered…
How can the way a survey group is selected influence the results of a survey?
Consider the survey question “Do you think teachers should assign homework every night?” If only teachers were surveyed, how might this affect the survey?
What if only students were questioned?

10. Sample Selection - Vocab
Population –
The group for which you are trying to collect data
Sample –
A small portion of the population from which you will gather data
Unbiased/ Biased sample –
A sample that is/is not representative of the population
Example question for biased sample:
“If you poll registered democrats about which presidential nominee they plan to vote for, can your results be generalized to the entire population?”

11. Sample Selection Self-Selected Sample –
Individuals select themselves into a group to be sampled
Systematic Sample –
Sample is selected randomly
Convenience Sample –
Sample of people who are easy to reach
Random Sample –
Unbiased representation of a group
Example of self-selected sample:
Teachers are asked to completed a survey about their work hours and are offered an incentive to complete the survey
Example of Systematic sample:
Given a list of people, the pollster starts with the first person and polls every 4th person on the list.
Example of convenience sample:
A pollster surveys people walking into Lloyd Center movie theater

12. Sample Selection
How can the number of people surveyed affect the results?
Which would result in a more useful survey about the quality of a school’s cafeteria food—a survey of 10 students eating cafeteria food, or a survey of 100 students in the hallway? Why?

13. Margin of Error
The size of the sample can directly impact your ability to extrapolate your results to the larger population.
In polling, we often see a “margin of error” which refers to the amount that is allowed for miscalculations or changes in circumstance
𝑀𝑜𝐸=± 1 𝑛

14. Margin of Error
𝑀𝑜𝐸=± 1 𝑛
What happens to the margin of error as your sample size increases?
Can your margin of error ever be 0?
