1. \n Give a
   \n
   \n detailed
   \n <\/u>
   \n example of using a weighted mean. Look for an example that is different from the one below, unless you plan on becoming a teacher \ud83d\ude42\n <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

   \n 1a. In
   \n
   \n your
   \n <\/u>
   \n example, explain how the weighted mean can be a better average than another measure of center like the simple mean?\n <\/p>\n

   \n
   1. \n As a stats instructor you award a total 250 points for different assessments in the course. (The points are the weights and indicate how important you think each assessment is.)\n <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \n The table below shows the assessments. It also shows the scores of two students on each assessment by the end of the semester.\n <\/p>\n

      \n
      1. \n Decide how each assessment should be weighted. That is, decide how many of the 250 points to give for each assessment.\n <\/li>\n
      2. \n Using your chosen weights, compute the class average for each of the two students.\n <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

         \n AssessmentWeights J_ScoreJ_PointsD_ScoreD_PointsDB (30 mins. each week) 94 80 HW (2 hours each week) 80 94 Test 1 (Chaps 1-2) 94 84 Test 2 (Chaps 3-4) 96 86 Test 3 (Chaps 5-6) 98 88 Final (Chaps 1-6) 75 90 Term Project (15 pages) 75 90 Total =250\n <\/p>\n

         \n Weights = Decide the weight for each assessment. The total must be 250\n <\/p>\n

         \n J_Score = This column holds Jason\u2019s actual scores on assessments (out of 100) J_Points = Points towards the class grade from this assessment. Multiply the actual score by the weight.\n <\/p>\n

         \n D_Score and D_Points are similar to J_Score and J_Points but for Daphne.\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
