Chapter 9: Probability and statistics Notes

Venn diagrams, two-way tables and set notation, two-step experiments with arrays and tree diagrams, measures of centre from frequency tables and grouped data, and measures of spread with quartiles, interquartile range and box plots.

Sections

  1. 9A Venn diagrams, two-way tables and set notation Mastered

    Using set notation (union, intersection, complement, n(A)), Venn diagrams and two-way tables to count outcomes and find probabilities.

  2. 9B Arrays and tree diagrams Mastered

    Two-step and three-step experiments using arrays (tables) and tree diagrams, with and without replacement, and relative frequency.

  3. 9C Measures of centre and grouped data Mastered

    Mean, median and mode from lists, stem-and-leaf plots and frequency tables, grouping data into class intervals, histograms and estimating the mean from class centres.

  4. 9D Quartiles, IQR and box plots Mastered

    Range, quartiles and interquartile range, the five-number summary, outliers, drawing and reading box plots, and comparing data sets.
