Outcomes

MA.912.DP.1.1

Given a set of data, select an appropriate method to represent the data, depending on whether it is numerical or categorical data and on whether it is univariate or bivariate.

MA.912.DP.3.1

Construct a two-way frequency table summarizing bivariate categorical data. Interpret joint and marginal frequencies and determine possible associations in terms of a real-world context.

MA.912.DP.3.2

Given marginal and conditional relative frequencies, construct a two-way relative frequency table summarizing categorical bivariate data.

MA.912.DP.3.3

Given a two-way relative frequency table or segmented bar graph summarizing categorical bivariate data, interpret joint, marginal and conditional relative frequencies in terms of a real-world context.
