6. Homework Expectations:
Three problems a night will be provided: a high, medium, and low.
You will be required to do two of them, the medium and one other.
I will post the final answer but not the work.
These will be turned in at the beginning of class.
Won’t count as evidence but will be documented

Once a week quizzes - Thursdays
You go over them in tutorial on Fridays

If you get two 4’s on Thursday quizzes it will automatically count as a 3 for the unit test.
A = ’s on Unit Tests (all else 3’s)
B = 4 – 7 4’s on Unit Tests (all else 3’s)
C = 0 – 3 4’s on Unit Tests (all else 3’s)
F = <11 3’s on Unit Tests

9. Portfolio Problems:
You must complete all required portfolio problems to take the unit test.
Everyone will take the quizzes each week.

11. Questions about grading?

12. Make up a possible scenario for the data. Add a title and labels.
With your group, complete the following in your notes for the data set given to you:
Make a dot plot
Find the maximum
Find the minimum
Find the range
Make up a possible scenario for the data. Add a title and labels.

13. 1. Find the min, max, and range for the following data set: 7, 3, 4, 32, 8, 10, 5, 2, 2, 2, 8, 3 2. If the range for a data set is 25 and the minimum is 12, what is the maximum? 3. Do you access to the internet at home?
