Outcomes

A2.S-IC.A.1

Understand statistics as a process for making inferences about population parameters based on a random sample from that population.

A2.S-IC.A.2

Explain whether a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process.

A2.S-ID.A.4

Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal curve, and use properties of the normal distribution and to estimate population percentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, or tables to estimate areas under the normal curve.
