Measure of Central Tendency
- is a value that represents the centre of a set of data
- can be mean, median, mode
Median - the middle number in a set of data after the data has been arranged or ordered
eg. 2, 5, 6, 8, 9 median is 6
eg. 1, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10 median is 7
*add the two middle values together then divide by two : 6 + 8 = 14 14 divided by 2 = 7
*to find the median of data sets with an even number of values (eg. 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) you have to use the above steps (add together , divide sum by 2, or in other words, find the mean/average)
Mode - the most frequently occuring number in a set of data
eg. 3, 5, 7, 7, 9 mode: 7
eg. 2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 8, 11 mode: 2 and 6
eg. 1, 2, 3, 4 mode: none
eg. 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4 mode: 2
eg. 2, 3, 2, 3, 4, 2, 4, 3, 4
2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4 mode: none
Mean - a measure of central tendency
- the sum (adding) of a set of values divided by the number of values in a set
eg. 4, 5, 8, 9, 9
= 4 + 5 + 8 + 9 + 9 divided by 5 = 35 divided by 5
= 7 - this is the mean
Mean - A. K. A. - average
Try these, find Mean, Median, Mode.
A) 7, 8, 6, 9, 9, 5, 7, 7, 8 ,4
4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9 median: 7 mode: 7 mean: 7
B) 300, 250, 400, 300, 250

Props to Julibella :). I saw the video on her post and it gave me the idea to use it.
Measures of Central Tendancy
How to find the mean is by the sum(adding) of a set of values divided by the number of values in the set.
eg. 1+2+3=6/3 eg. 4,5,8,9,9
3 sets of values
=4+5+8+9+9/5
=35/5
=7<- this is the mean. a.k.a average
Try this mean, median, mode
A) 7,8,6,9,9,5,7,7,8,4

$ + $ +$+ !!!!!
The expression for this would be 3c+5
This an expression because it's not asking for the answer.
Write an expression representing 3 more than six times a number.
bn+3 is the expression.
bn becaue these letters are kissing that's means it is mutyplying.
+ 3 means it adding 3 of course.
SO alway's remeber that a expression means
the question. NEVER ANSWER An EXPRESSION.
Jimmy leaves home with 20$ in his pocket. He stops at billy's house to collect the $15
he lent to billy. He then goes and buy's flowers for casey because it is her birthday. The flowers
cost $27, how much money does jimmy have left?
20+15=35
35-27=8
jimmy has 8 dollors left.
*cheack out this link that talks about expressions*
http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_notation#Expressions
awesome vedio on evaluating expression.
Remeber to study for exams.
Math exam is on tuesday.
http://http://cemc2.math.uwaterloo.ca/wired_math/english/grade7/index.html
*Also try these fun math games to excersize your brain*
And don't wait for the last second to study here are some great study tips
START EARLY!
These are the top ten things that you need to know to Ace exams!
Give yourself plenty of time.
Cramming doesn’t work. It just doesn’t. When you start to study weeks ahead you have plenty of time to read everything. It also gives you time to ask questions about anything you don’t fully understand.
Use an Agenda.
Write your study time in your agenda, even if it’s only 20 minutes a night. An agenda is one of the best organizational tools you have to help you prepare for your exams.
Set up a study stadium.
Okay, it doesn’t have to be an actual stadium—just an area where you can leave your notes, your pencils, and your dictionary. Someplace where you are comfortable and where there is little distraction—that means no TV or blaring music!
Look at the big picture.
How many pages in total do you have to study? How much time? If you have 50 pages to cover in 10 weeks, then that is only 1page a night on weekdays, with weekends off. That’s not so bad! You can even write down what pages to study on what night.
Study a little bit every night.
When you start early enough you can easily avoid the stress and anxiety of pulling an all-nighter. And, you can move at a steadier pace—20 minutes a night is easier to handle than 7 hours the night before. By the week before the exam you’ll have read everything at least once and you’ll be prepared!
Make your own notes.
Look at the chapter or unit or section. What are the titles, heading and subheadings? Are there any bolded words? Write these down. These are key words, and they are great indicators to help you know what the material is about.
Put it in your own words.
This is known a paraphrasing and it’s a great technique to help you really understand the material. Memorization and rote repetition? That’s for robots? You need to understand the material to succeed!
Cover, recite and check.
But how do you paraphrase? It’s as easy as reading over a page, a paragraph, or a sentence, then covering it up, and saying it back in your own words!
Don’t study the stuff you know well.
Start with the most challenging sections and move on from there. There is no point studying material that you are confident you know. A quick review to make sure you remember everything is enough.
Make classroom time active learning time.
The best study tip is one that doesn’t even involve studying, but happens way before studying—in the classroom. The secret to easy studying is to be an active learner in the classroom. Raise your hand. Ask questions. Participate in discussions. Don’t just sit and wait for the teacher to teach you, get involved in learning!
The more responsibility you take for your education, the easier learning— and studying—will be
Good luck everyone!!!:)

How To Scribe
To scribe, you must learn these terms:
Link-highlight a word and press the link button then look for a site that you think will build interest, then you copy and paste the URL. After you get a link, click on 'Preview' and test the link.
For example-Artemis Fowl
Image-find an image (Google images), then save it to your computer, then browse and find the image that you saved (delete if useless). You can change the layout and size. Then you press'Upload Image' then you're done. For example-
Video-go to Youtube, then find a video that will build interest in the math topic. Once you have found a video, click on it and go to the gray box, then highlight and copy the code that is in the box titled 'embed'. Then click 'edit HTML' on the blog, then scroll to the bottom then paste the code, then paste the code, and then click compose and preview.
For example-
Font-to change the font, click the arrow next to the word 'font', then scroll down and find a font that you like and that others can read.
For example-The quick brown fox jumps overs the lazy dog and into the stainless steel pole.
Colour-to change the colour, click on the T with the multi-coloured square, and then change the colours of important facts and titles. Try not to use too much colour, as it is distracting. Also, avoid colours like yellow, as it is hard to see.
For example-The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog and is shot by the hunter lying in wait.
Size-to change the size, click the double T's, then choose the size you want to write with. Just don't make the size too small or too large.
For example-The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog...and nothing happened to it.
Hope you enjoyed this post. :)

Chose the Best Measure of Central Tendancy
Find the mean, mode, median and range
Mode = 7
Median = 9
Mean = 13
Mean = 13
Range = 43
The median is the best measure of central tendancy.
The median is the best because most of the numbers are close to 9
How many shirts should I buy for the next 30 weeks?
9 x 30 = 270
130 x 3 = 390

Range and Outliers
Range -
The positive difference between the largest and smallest values in a data set
Eg. 6, 2, 9, 4, 3 - data set
2, 3, 4, 6, 9 - ordered from least to greatest
9 - 2 = 7
The range is 7
Eg. -8, -1, -3, -5
-8, -5, -3, -1
(-1) - (18) = 7
The range is 7
Outliers -
A value that is much smaller or larger than the other data values
A data set man have one or more outliers or no outliers
* In other words, it's just like finding something that doesn't belong
*In this case, you are looking for numbers that have a big difference between the other numbers
Find the range-
a) 7, 4, 3, 6, 2, 5, 8, 3
2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
8 - 2 = 6

Measure of Central Tendency
Measure of central tendency
-is a value that represents the center of a set of data
-can be median, mode, mean
Remember:
-When given a set of data always reorder the digits from least to greatest.
Median
-the middle number in a set of data after the data has been arranged or ordered, only if there is an odd number of items in the data
-if there is an even number of items in the data the sum of the 2 middle numbers in the data set are divided to get the total
eg. 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, -median is 6
1, 3, 6, 8, 9, 10 -median is 7
-----(6+8) ÷ 2 =7
3, 8, 2, 6, 5, 4, -median is 4.5
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8,
----(4+5) ÷ 2 = 4.5
Mode
-the most frequent occurring number in the set of data
-if you find no number that repeats most often, then there is no mode.
eg. 3, 5, 7, 7, 9 -mode is 7
2, 2, 4, 6, 6, 8, 11 -mode is 2 and 6
1, 2, 3, 4 -mode; there is no mode
Try this:
Montreal scored the following goals in their last 10 games
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 5, 3, 3, 7, 3
-Find the median and the mode:
1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 7

median- 10.5
mode- 8, 11
Mean
-a measure of rental tendency
-the sum (adding) of a set of data divided by the number of values in set
eg. 4, 5, 8, 9, 9
- 4+5+8+9+9=35
- 35 ÷ 5 =7
Try this- mean, median, mode
a) 4, 5, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9

Review: Solving One Step Algebra Equations
Apply the opposite operation
Remember
-an opposite operation is an operation that "undoes" another operation.
-subtraction and adding are opposites
-division and multiplication are opposites
-whatever you do one side you must do the same to the other side to maintain balance
1st step- isolate the variable/get the letter by itself
2nd step- apply opposite operation
3rd step- check the answer, substitute the answer for the letter of the original equation
A+5=7
-5 -5
A=2
Check your answer:
A+5=7
2+5=7
7=7
To extend our knowledge, we had equations to solve:
a) b-3=5
- +3 +3
- b=8
Check your answer:
b-3=5
8-3=5
8=8
b) c÷3=7
- x3 x3
- c=21
Check your answer:
c÷3=7
21÷3=7
21=21
c) 4d=16
- ÷4 ÷4
- d=4
Check your answer:
4d=16
4(4)=16
16=16

Solving one-step equations
1. Using inspection, mental math
Eg. a + 4 = 12
8 + 4 = 12
12 = 12
Eg. a + 4 = 12
8 + 4 = 12
12 = 12
Ask yourself what something + 4 = 12 or 12 - something = 4
Try these:
14 = k + 5
14 = 9 + 5
t - 3 = 11
14 - 3 = 11
10 - y = 8
10 - 2 = 8
2. Model (make a picture) and solve
Eg.
Bill rides 4 km to the bridge then rides to work. In total he rides 11 km. How far from the bridge to work?
4 + y = 11
4 + 7 = 11
3. Apply the opposite operation
Eg. c + 22 = 56
- 22 = -22
c = 34
Check- c + 22= 56
34 + 22 = 56
56 = 56
1st step - Isolate the variable (get the letter by itself)
2nd step - Apply the opposite operation
3rd step - Check your answer. Substitute the answer for the letter of the original equation
Opposite operation - An operation that "undoes" another operation
* subtraction and addition are opposites
* division and multiplication are opposites
Solve by applying the opposite operating - Check your answer:
1. n + 7 = 26
- 7 = -7
n = 19
Check - n + 7 = 26
19 +7 = 26
26 = 26
2. d - 3 = -5
+3 = +3
d = -2
Check - d - 3 = -5(-2) - 3 = -5
-5 = -5
