Pick of the Week

Kayleigh has been posting about the Formula 1, again. Who knew she'd be such a massive fan of the sport. I also enjoyed the bit about food waste that she head on the news. If anyone comes across other things like this post it. We still haven't decided what we're doing next term so more stuff like this the better.

Kayleigh's Blog

I've also enjoyed reading Kettley's blog. Even though he was from last year's class, he is still writing good blogs about what he's been up to.

Check out his latest blog

Another James has also been blogging. This time its Noble and he's been competing in a swimming gala.

Formula 1 [P.E]

Not sure where this has gone as i posted yesterday.

Formula 1.

WHERE IS IT?  India

WHO WILL WIN? Webber

HOW WILL CHAMPIONSHIP BE AFFECTED?  If Vettel win he could go top of the world championships depending on where Alonso comes.

One day me and my class went on a school trip to Witby.We had a amazing journey,when we got there the teacher told us our room number mine was room 13 me and my friends had to climb the creaky staircase toget to our room. When we got to the landing it was dark and gloomy,suddenly my friend tript on the stoney dusty floor."ouch" she cried in aloud voice,her lie hit the door of room 13. Suddenly she screamed, "What is that?" We ran. As my friend hurt her leg it pulled her in!

 I walked through my shimmering double doors, I caught a shadow  creeping round the corner of the hallway ; I thought that it was just my mother or father walking to the fridge, but then I turned to their  room and heard my dad snoring and my mum nudging him while trying to get to sleep.

” What is that?” I screamed as I woke my parents up. The shadow disappeared round the dim lit corner, my instinct was to chase after it, but I decided to  run to my window and there was  the shadow disappearing into the wilderness of the night  sky.

New topic

        

                                                           Look at all the food waste just a                                                                                               another thing about our new topic to grieve over.

Mean = Is adding together all the numbers then dividing by how many numbers you have. 

Mode= Is the most popular.

Median= Is the middle.

Range = The distance between the biggest and smallest number.

look how cute they are 

Mean, Median, Mode, and Range
Mean, median, and mode are three kinds of "averages". There are many "averages" in statistics, but these are, I think, the three most common, and are certainly the three you are most likely to encounter in your pre-statistics courses, if the topic comes up at all.
The "mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up all the numbers and then divide by the number of numbers. The "median" is the "middle" value in the list of numbers. To find the median, your numbers have to be listed in numerical order, so you may have to rewrite your list first. The "mode" is the value that occurs most often. If no number is repeated, then there is no mode for the list.
The "range" is just the difference between the largest and smallest values.

• Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values:
  13, 18, 13, 14, 13, 16, 14, 21, 13

The mean is the usual average, so:

(13 + 18 + 13 + 14 + 13 + 16 + 14 + 21 + 13) ÷ 9 = 15
Note that the mean isn't a value from the original list. This is a common result. You should not assume that your mean will be one of your original numbers.
The median is the middle value, so I'll have to rewrite the list in order:

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
There are nine numbers in the list, so the middle one will be the (9 + 1) ÷ 2 = 10 ÷ 2 = 5th number:

13, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 16, 18, 21
So the median is 14.   Copyright © Elizabeth Stapel 2004-2011 All Rights Reserved
The mode is the number that is repeated more often than any other, so 13 is the mode.
The largest value in the list is 21, and the smallest is 13, so the range is 21 – 13 = 8.

mean: 15
median: 14
mode: 13range: 8

Note: The formula for the place to find the median is "( [the number of data points] + 1) ÷ 2", but you don't have to use this formula. You can just count in from both ends of the list until you meet in the middle, if you prefer. Either way will work.

• Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values:
  1, 2, 4, 7

-->

The mean is the usual average:

(1 + 2 + 4 + 7) ÷ 4 = 14 ÷ 4 = 3.5
The median is the middle number. In this example, the numbers are already listed in numerical order, so I don't have to rewrite the list. But there is no "middle" number, because there are an even number of numbers. In this case, the median is the mean (the usual average) of the middle two values:

(2 + 4) ÷ 2 = 6 ÷ 2 = 3
The mode is the number that is repeated most often, but all the numbers in this list appear only once, so there is no mode.

The largest value in the list is 7, the smallest is 1, and their difference is 6, so the range is 6.

mean: 3.5
median: 3
mode: none
range: 6

The list values were whole numbers, but the mean was a decimal value. Getting a decimal value for the mean (or for the median, if you have an even number of data points) is perfectly okay; don't round your answers to try to match the format of the other numbers.

• Find the mean, median, mode, and range for the following list of values:
   8, 9, 10, 10, 10, 11, 11, 11, 12, 13

The mean is the usual average:

(8 + 9 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 11 + 11 + 11 + 12 + 13) ÷ 10 = 105 ÷ 10 = 10.5
The median is the middle value. In a list of ten values, that will be the (10 + 1) ÷ 2 = 5.5th value; that is, I'll need to average the fifth and sixth numbers to find the median:

(10 + 11) ÷ 2 = 21 ÷ 2 = 10.5
The mode is the number repeated most often. This list has two values that are repeated three times.
The largest value is 13 and the smallest is 8, so the range is 13 – 8 = 5.

mean: 10.5
median: 10.5
modes: 10 and 11range: 5

While unusual, it can happen that two of the averages (the mean and the median, in this case) will have the same value.
Note: Depending on your text or your instructor, the above data set may be viewed as having no mode (rather than two modes), since no single solitary number was repeated more often than any other. I've seen books that go either way; there doesn't seem to be a consensus on the "right" definition of "mode" in the above case. So if you're not certain how you should answer the "mode" part of the above example, ask your instructor before the next test.
About the only hard part of finding the mean, median, and mode is keeping straight which "average" is which. Just remember the following:

mean: regular meaning of "average"
median: middle value
mode: most often

(In the above, I've used the term "average" rather casually. The technical definition of "average" is the arithmetic mean: adding up the values and then dividing by the number of values. Since you're probably more familiar with the concept of "average" than with "measure of central tendency", I used the more comfortable term.)

• A student has gotten the following grades on his tests: 87, 95, 76, and 88. He wants an 85 or better overall. What is the minimum grade he must get on the last test in order to achieve that average? The unknown score is "x". Then the desired average is:
  
  (87 + 95 + 76 + 88 + x) ÷ 5 = 85
  Multiplying through by 5 and simplifying, I get:
  
  87 + 95 + 76 + 88 + x = 425
                        346 + x = 425
                                  x = 79
  He needs to get at least a 79 on the last test.

                                                              the big monster


one sunny day, my friend and i went for a happy walk down to the park. To our surprise, we saw a humomgous monster.excitedly, we edged near to it.in a deep, bellowing voice, it said, "you will be my owner.we brought the shinny machine back to my friend's house.the clumsy golden monster smashed the glass and the plates in the kitchen.finally we became sick and tired of the destruction so we took the extremely annoying monster back to the forest.but the monster wouldn't leave...

Suddenly out of nowwhere this giant squeaky reycled monster sqeaked it moved it's eye left and right.I suddenly hid behind a tree, it started to move. I began shivvering then it was making something but my tiny little brain coulden't work it out. Then it went to chop the tree down, I was petrivied. I started to look for another hiding place but there was nowhere to run.

People went to play with it then I ran to play with it then I saw what it was making it was a rollercoaster. People went to play with it!
