SENIORS IN 1st and 2nd PERIODS: Go to Room 808 for class on Wednesday.

Pre-testing processing of the exam forms for AP testing (otherwise known as the Bubbling-in sessions) have started. Go to the theater at 7:30 in the AM or 3:30 in the PM to fill in your forms in anticipation of the big day.

Next test: Cumulative multiple choice test on Thursday, April 16.
Test after that: TUESDAY, April 21. (Unless you sign up for Monday afternoon free response testing.)



We plan to test on Chapter 15 on Tuesday, April 14. Until then we will be doing problems from old exams that relate to linear regression and inferences about the slope (the problems you Hawaii folks picked up on Tuesday!!!). We covered this stuff first semester when we did regression.

Our tentative plans for tests for the rest of the semester. . .

HW due Thursday
Write up the responses to the three free response questions discussed in class in your spiral notebooks.

Notes for the 2008 problem, part c: Follow their directions. Average the two proportions. For the standard deviation you will have to find the square root of the variance of the average. Yiles! Sounds difficult.

Variance of the average = 1/4 variance of x + 1/4 variance of y.
