Assessment for Day 1, Day 2, Day 3
In order to compare the data, you have to find all the values first!
MEAN
Add up the 5
numbers and
divide by 5.
3+6+6+9+11=35
35 / 5
=7
So, MEAN = 7
MEDIAN
MODE
RANGE
Place the
numbers in
order and find
the middle
number.
The number
that shows up
the most often.
The difference
between the
biggest number
and the smallest
number.
The numbers are
already in order.
3,6,6,9,11
The # in the middle
is 6. So, MEDIAN = 6
The number that
shows up the most
is 6.
So, MODE = 6
Subtract the
smallest # from the
biggest #.
11 - 3 = 8
So, RANGE = 8
Choice “A”
Choice “B”
Choice “C”
Choice “D”
7 > 8
6 > 7
6 = 7
7 > 6
NO!!
NO!!
YES!!
NO!!
To PREDICT means to ESTIMATE.
Step 1: Rewrite the table. “Day” is the x-values and “Bacteria” the y-values.
What pattern do you find in the DAY column?
Bacteria data is collected every day!
What pattern do you find in the BACTERIA column?
Correct! Bacteria increases by almost 4 times every day!
Now follow the pattern until you get to the 6th day.
I know….. 16 * 4 is NOT 62 and 62 * 4 is NOT 250.
We are estimating, remember?
So, you can predict that on the 6th day, 4000 bacteria
will be present. Choice C is the correct answer!
= 13
= 53
= 29
= 13
= -11
Which one of these answers is equal to the problem?
Strategy: Think about your FAVORITE number. (DO NOT USE 0 OR 1)
You are going to substitute your favorite number in place of
all the Xs that you see in the problem and the answer choices.
My favorite number is 5. This is the number that I will substitute in place of X.
PROBLEM
3(X+2)-4(X-3)
3(5+2)-4(5-3)
3(7) - 4(2)
21 - 8
= 13
Choice “A”
7X + 18
7*X + 18
7 *5 + 18
35 + 18
= 53
Choice “B”
7X - 6
7* 5 - 6
35 - 6
= 29
Choice “C”
-X + 18
-1* 5 + 18
-5 + 18
= 13
Choice “D”
-X - 6
-1* 5 - 6
-5 - 6
= -11
**Choice “C” matches!! Even though C is the answer, Always
check all of the answers to make sure you are 100% right.**
= -18
= -14
= -18
= 56
= 52

= - 18
**Choice “B” matches!! Even though B is the answer, Always
check all of the answers to make sure you are 100% right.**
He has $25 out of the $120 that he needs.
25 out of 120 that means that you divide 25 by 120.
25 / 120 =
0.208333333
Do any of the answers match 0.2083333?
NO!! Move the decimal 2
spaces to the right!
You get 20.83% and the closest answer is “B”.
