AP Statistics: Using the Calculator Under the Distributions Menu (2nd VARS) normalcdf(left z-score , right z-score) Calculates

es the area of the region (probability) on the normal curve between two z-scores (use -99 for the left z on < and 99 for the right z on >) invNorm(percentile as a decimal) Calculates the z-score for a given percentile invT(percentile as a decimal , df) Calculates the t value for a given percentile with a given degrees of freedom tcdf(left t value , right t-value , df) Calculates the area between two t-values on a t-distribution with a given degrees of freedom 2 cdf ( 2 value , 10^99, df) Calculates the to the right of a value on the Chi-Square distribution with a given degrees of freedom binompdf(n , p , k ) Calculates P ( X = k ) for a binomial with number of trials n and probability of success p binomcdf(n , p , k ) Calculates P ( X k ) for a binomial with number of trials n and probability of success p geometpdf(p , k) Calculates P ( X = k ) for a geometric with probability of success p geometcdf(p , k) Calculates P ( X k ) for a geometric with probability of success p In the STAT menu under TESTS Z-Test runs a 1-sample test for one MEAN when the standard deviation is known (rarely) T-Test runs a 1-sample test for one MEAN when the standard deviation is not known (most of the time) 2-SampZTest runs a 2-sample test for the difference in two MEANS when the standard deviation is known (rarely) (When it asks you to pool choose NO) 2-SampTTest runs a 2-sample test for the difference in two MEANS when the standard deviation is not known (most of the time) (When it asks you to pool choose NO) 1-PropZTest runs a 1-sample test for one PROPORTION 2-PropZTest runs a 2-sample test for the difference in two PROPORTIONS (it automatically pools the data since the null is no difference) ZInterval creates a confidence interval for one MEAN when the standard deviation is known (rarely) TInterval creates a confidence interval for one MEAN when the standard deviation is not known (most of the time) 2-SampZInt creates a confidence interval for the difference in two MEANS when the standard deviation is known (rarely) 2-SampTInt creates a confidence interval for the difference in two MEANS when the standard deviation is not known (most of the time) 1-PropZInt creates a confidence interval for one PROPORTION 2-PropZInt creates a confidence interval for the difference in two PROPORTIONS 2 -Test runs a Chi-Square test for independence/homogeneity (same mechanics). You put the data in matrix A, and the calculator will compute the expected counts and put them in matrix B 2 GOF-Test runs a Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit test. You put the observed in L1 and the expected in L2 (you have to calculate the expected yourself for this one) LinRegTTest runs a test for the slope of the regression line. You need to put the data in L1 and L2 first. LinRegTInt creates a confidence interval for the slope of the regression line. You need to put the data in L1 and L2 first. NOTE: when you do LinRegTTest, it will also run the regression and give you the equation, r, and RSquared with the test output, so you can automatically do this for a regression problem if you want

Regression: Go to CATALOG (2nd 0 to get there) and choose DiagnosticOn, then press enter twice Put your explanatory variable (x) in L1 and your response variable (y) in L2 Under STAT, highlight CALC and choose the regression you want to do (options 4 through A) For example: LinReg(a+bx) L1 , L2 would do linear regression using L1 for the x-values and L2 for the yvalues To check the residual plot, go to STAT PLOT (2nd Y= ), choose a scatterplot, make Xlist: L1 and Ylist:RESID (to get to RESID go to LIST (2nd STAT) and choose RESID) Other things to remember: To find the summary statistics (mean, standard deviation, 5-number summary) for a list of data, put it in L1 , go to STAT, highlight CALC, and choose 1:Var Stats L1 To find the summary statistics for data that is given with frequencies, put the actual values in L1 and their corresponding frequencies in L2 and choose 1:Var Stats L1 , L2 All graphs are under STAT PLOT (2nd Y= ) and use the data that are in the lists When you do a boxplot on your calculator, you can see the key points using TRACE When you do a histogram on your calculator, you can see the bins and how many are in them by using TRACE To do a Matched Pairs T-Test, put the data in L1 and L2 and make L3 = L2 L1 , then do a t-Test using the data in L3 (you should actually make a column for difference on the problem and show the differences if its a free response question)
