Problem Solving

We started today by reviewing the problems you had for homework dealing with the different types of variation. Be sure you know how to find the regression line using your calculator and understand what it is used for (and how to use it).

I also handed back your tests from last week. Overall they were very good! Another job well done. Be sure to review ALL of your test material for the midterm this Friday!

We also looked at some Problem Solving situations using the material from the last chapter. You should have problems 1-7 (skip 3 and 5) done for class tomorrow.

Have a great week!

Coming up:
- Homework: p. 125 #'s 1-7 (skip 3 and 5)
- Midterm this FRIDAY!!!!!!
