Topic: Making Inferences and Justifying Conclusions
Common Core Mathematics 9-12
Cluster
Understand and evaluate random processes underlying statistical experiments
Grade 9-12
S.IC.2.
Decide if a specified model is consistent with results from a given data-generating process, e.g., using simulation. For example, a model says a spinning coin falls heads up with probability 0.5. Would a result of 5 tails in a row cause you to question the model?
Cluster
Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies
Grade 9-12
S.IC.3.
Recognize the purposes of and differences among sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies; explain how randomization relates to each.
S.IC.4.
Use data from a sample survey to estimate a population mean or proportion; develop a margin of error through the use of simulation models for random sampling.
S.IC.5.
Use data from a randomized experiment to compare two treatments; use simulations to decide if differences between parameters are significant.
S.IC.6.
Evaluate reports based on data.
