Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable

S-ID.1

Mostly covered
Represent and analyze data with plots on the real number line (dot plots, histograms, and box plots).

S-ID.2

Fully covered
Use statistics appropriate to the shape of the data distribution to compare center (median, mean) and spread (interquartile range, standard deviation) of two or more different data sets.

S-ID.3

Mostly covered
Interpret differences in shape, center, and spread in the context of the data sets, accounting for possible effects of extreme data points (outliers).

Summarize, represent, and interpret data on two categorical and quantitative variables

Interpret linear models

S-ID.8

Fully covered
Compute (using technology) and interpret the correlation coefficient of a linear fit.

S-ID.9

Fully covered
Distinguish between correlation and causation.
