constant of proportionality
K = y/x y=kx
26
unit rate
expresses quantity of one thing in terms of one unit of another. Denominator of unit rate is ALWAYS 1 ex) you travel 30 miles every 2 hours unit rate = 15 mi/1 hour
27
slope
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) or rise/run where x1 cannot equal x2 positive = upward slope negative = downward slope
28
single variable linear expression
sum of a single variable term and a constant ex) 2w+7
29
Ax+By=C
slope = -A/B ; y intercept is C/B
30
y=mx+b
m=slope ; b is y intercept
31
point-slope y-y1=m(x-x1)
m=slope (x1,y1) = point
32
(y-y1)/(x-x1) = (y2-y)/(x2-x1)
(x,y) = are points x-x1 + y/y1 = 1 ; (x,0) is point of line intersecting x-axis (0,y) is point where line intersects y axis
33
Inequalities
if you multiply or divide both sides of the inequality by a negative number, the inequality is flipped
34

39
approximate error
amount of error in a physical measurement; measurement ± approx error
40
max possible error

41
rounding numbers
make sure all numbers are rounded to the same level ex) cannot round one number to the nearest thousand and the other to the nearest hundred. Both must be one or the other

93
mean
(sum of data)/(quantity of data) make sure all data is in the same units
94
median
middle number of data if data has even number of data, take two middle most data points and divide by 2
95
mode
number that appears the most
96
range
difference b/w greatest and lowest value units of data must all be the same
97
standard deviation
larger standard deviation results in greater variance of the data from the mean
98
if mean is to the right of the median, data is positive skewed
if mean is to the left of the median, data is negative skewed no skw = perfect bell curve
99
unimodal distribution

100
bimodal distribution

101
uniform distribution
no peaks or variation
102
event
any situation that produces a result ex) flipping a coin
103
compound event
involves 2 or more independent events ex) rolling dice and taking the sum
104
desired outcome
meets particular set of criteria ex) roll of 1 or 2 if we want to roll a number less than three
105
independent event
2 or more events whose outcomes do not affect one another ex) 2 coins tossed at the same time
106
dependent events
2 or more events whose outcomes affect one or another ex) 2 cards drawn consecutively from the same deck
107
certain outcome
probability of outcome is 100% or 1
108
impossible outcome
probability of outcome is 0% or 0
109
mutually exclusive outcomes
2 or more consecutively outcomes whose criteria can't all be satisfied in a single event ex) coin coming up heads and tails on same toss of single coin
110
Random variable
all possible outcomes of a single event which may be discrete or continuous
111
Theoretical probability = likelihood of an outcome occurring
P(A)= (# of acceptable outcomes)/(# of possible outcomes) total number of acceptable outcomes must be less than or equal to the total number of possible outcomes if the two are equal then P(A) = 1 ex) there are 20 marbles and 5 are red. What is theoretical probability of selecting a red marble? P(A) = 5/20 = 1/4 = 25%
112
sample space
total set of all possible results of a test event is portion of sample space distribution = function that assigns a real number probability from zero to one to each outcome ex) probability of drawing a specific face card from a probability of drawing any face card (12 face cards in deck): 1/52 = 0.19 probability of drawing any face card: 12(0.019) = 0.228
113
mutually exclusive
2 events that have common outcomes
114
addition rule for probability
P(A or B) = [P(A) + P(B)] - [P (A&B)]
115
conditional probability
probability that event A will occur given that event B has occurred
116
Multiplication rule for probability
P(A&B) = P(A) * P(B) where P(A&B) is the probability of 2 independent events occurring where A is one event and B is the other
117
The probability that at least one outcome of the element will occur
P(at least one event occurring) = 1 - P(no outcomes occurring)
118
