Master Mathematics with Structured, Exam-Focused & Concept-Driven Learning Pro

The Tutor and Student delved into Chapter 7, focusing on the distribution of sample means and the Central Limit Theorem. They practiced calculating sampling error, standard error, and z-scores for sample means, and determining probabilities associated with them. The session concluded with a plan for the Student to complete practice assignments over the next three days.

The Tutor and Student began a new topic, probability, explaining its role as a bridge between samples and populations and its basic definition and properties. They then covered random sampling, probability graphs, normal distributions, and the use of the Unit Normal Table to find probabilities using z-scores. The session ended with practicing calculations for finding probabilities of raw scores and finding scores from probabilities, and planning to cover Chapter 7 next.

The tutor and student continued their study of logarithmic functions, focusing on evaluating logarithmic expressions, applying logarithm properties, and understanding the base change formula. They practiced converting bases and determining the sign of logarithmic values, with plans to continue further math topics after a week off.

The session focused on teaching the concept of z-scores, including their calculation, interpretation, and application in standardizing distributions and inferential statistics. The student practiced calculating z-scores and worked through problems related to transforming scores and determining population parameters.

The class reviewed key statistical concepts from Chapters 3 and 4, focusing on measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and variability (range, standard deviation). The tutor guided the student through formulas and calculation steps, including a detailed explanation of how to compute standard deviation using both definitional and computational formulas for populations and samples. The session concluded with a plan to begin Chapter 5 in the next class.

The Tutor and Student reviewed the concept of logarithmic functions as inverses of exponential functions. They practiced converting between these forms, identified domain and range, and worked through various practice problems from an assignment booklet to solidify their understanding.
