Content Update: AP Statistics and Multivariable Calculus
We’re thrilled to let you know about the addition of new content to two math courses!
AP Statistics
We’ve added new content to our AP Statistics course, providing even more alignment to the updated Course and Exam Description from College Board. Here are some of the topics that we now cover:
- Mosaic plots
- Influential points, outliers, and high-leverage points in scatterplots
- Systematic random sampling
- Prospective and retrospective studies
- Mean and standard deviation of geometric distributions
- Sampling distributions for differences between two means or proportions
We’ve also made smaller edits to some of our existing exercises to improve alignment based on changes in the Course and Exam Description.
New Articles:
- Differences of sample proportions — Probability examples
- Differences of sample means — Probability examples
New Exercises:
- Types of studies
- Sampling method considerations
- Mosaic plots
- Identify influential points
- Geometric distributions
- Mean and standard deviation of difference of sample proportions
- Mean and standard deviation of difference of sample means
- Shape of sampling distributions for differences in sample proportions
- Shape of sampling distributions for differences in sample mean
