Re-quiz tomorrow · Jan 27, 02:29 PM

I’ll quiz today’s material again tomorrow. I’ve prepared an answer key which I need to scan and upload. It will be available after 3:30.

To prepare, most of you should focus on two things:

1. picking up easy points like “defining variables” and “answering in context.” I graded the first question as follows:

Define variablesCalculateCheck conditions and assumptionsAnswer in contextTOTAL
14128

2. recognizing the difference between rescaling one random variable and combining random variables that happen to have the same mean and standard deviation.
