3. US System Metric System Measurement Systems

4. Mass US System: Ounce 1 Pound = 16 oz 1 Ton = 2000 lb Metric System: 1 Milligram =1/1000 g 1 Centigram = 1/100 g Gram 1 Kilogram = 1000 g

5. Liquid Capacity US System: Fluid ounce 1 Cup = 8 fl oz 1 Pint = 2 cups 1 Quart = 2 pints 1 Gallon = 4 quarts Metric System: 1 Milliliter = 1/1000 L 1 Centiliter =1/100 L Liter 1 Kiloliter 1000 L

6. Length Metric System: 1 millimeter 1/1000 m 1 centimeter 1/100 m Meter 1 kilometer 1000 m US System: Inch 1 Foot = 12 in 1 Yard = 3 ft 1 Mile = 5280 ft, 1760 yd

7. Measurement Conversion Create a proportion! Ex: How many cups are in 5 pints? Ex: How many ounces in 1 ton? Ex: How many yards in 6 miles?

8. Formulas Statements of rules connecting variables There are formulas for all geometric measures To solve a problem using a formula: 1. Plug in the known values for each variable 2. Solve for the unknown variable

9. Geometric Measures Perimeter (1-dimensional) Circumference (1-dimensional, only for circles) Area (2-dimensional) Volume (3-dimensional)

10. Parallelograms Squares, rectangles, other 4-sided figures with equal lengths and equal heights Area = base x height [measured in units 2 ] Perimeter= base + height + base + height (or 2b + 2h) Example: b=5, h=10. Find area & perimeter

11. Triangles 3-sided figures Area= ½b x h [measured in units squared] Perimeter= length of side a + length of side b + length of side c Example: b=5, h=10. Find area & perimeter

12. Circles Area= π r 2 (r = radius = ½ the diameter of a circle) Circumference= 2 π r Example: d=6. Find Circumference

13. Trapezoids Area= ½ h (a+b) Example: h=5, a=2, b=6. Find the area

14. Volume Volume rectangular prism= lwh Volume pyramid= (1/3)(area of base)(h) Volume sphere= (4/3) π r 3

15. Statistics and Probability

16. Group Activity Team 1: Survey the class about the number of countries to which students have traveled. Create a data table with the information. Team 2: Survey the class about their favorite season. Create a data table with the information.

17. Descriptive Statistics Data: Values in a set Nominal data: are not comprised of numbers Ex: (blue, yellow, green) Discrete data: clear cut scores Ex: (1, 2, 3) Interval data: Grouped data Ex: 1-3, 4-6, 7-9

18. Frequency

19. Relative Frequency The percentage of the whole that the frequency represents To compute relative frequency: 1. Divide each score’s frequency by the total number of scores 2. The answer is decimal or percent Ex: Find the relative frequency of each score from the frequency distribution above

20. Frequency Polygon

21. Frequency Histogram

22. Relative Frequency Pie Chart

23. Measures of Central Tendency Mean: numerical average To find the mean: 1. Add all the scores (elements of the data set) 2. Divide by the total number of scores. Ex: Scores= (81, 85, 82, 89, 83)

24. Median: the number directly in the middle of the data To find the median: 1. Arrange the scores in numerical order 2. Find the score directly in the middle 3. If there are two scores in the middle, find the mean of those two scores. That is the median. Ex: Scores= (81, 85, 82, 89, 83)

25. Mode: The score that occurs the most often If there are two modes, the data set is considered bimodal. Ex: Scores= (13, 8, 8, 7)

26. Range: high score minus the low score Ex: (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)

27. Weighted Mean Similar to an arithmetic mean (see above) where instead of each of the data points contributing equally to the final average, some data points contribute more than othersarithmetic mean To find the weighted mean: 1. Multiply each score by its weight 2. Add the results Ex: Grades are often computed using a weighted average. Suppose that homework counts 10%, quizzes 20%, and tests 70%. If Pat has a homework grade of 92, a quiz grade of 68, and a test grade of 81, then Pat's overall grade = (0.10)(92) + (0.20)(68) + (0.70)(81) = 79.5

28. Probability P= number of successes divided by total number of possibilities Ex: What is the probability of rolling a “5” on a dice? Probability of an event NOT happening= 1 minus the probability of the event happening Ex: What is the probability of NOT rolling a “5” on a dice?
