Math Week 3-21-16

7th: Students use probability models to predict the likelihood of chance events. Students understand the difference between independent and dependent events. Students can find the probabilities of compound events.

CCSS: 7.SP. Investigate chance processes and develop, use, and evaluate
probability models. 5. Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event.

7. Develop a probability model and use it to find probabilities of events. a. Develop a uniform probability model by assigning equal probability to all outcomes, and use the model to determine probabilities of events.

8. Find probabilities of compound events using organized lists, tables, tree diagrams, and simulation. a. Understand that, just as with simple events, the probability of a compound event is the fraction of outcomes in the sample space
for which the compound event occurs.

8th: Students define and recognize when a relationship is functional. Students can readily identify a function and fluently use function notation.

CCSS: 8.F.Define, evaluate, and compare functions.
1. Understand that a function is a rule that assigns to each input exactly one output. The graph of a function is the set of ordered pairs consisting of an input and the corresponding output. 5. Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.
