Around You Do this activity together to investigate probability
in the real world.
Have you ever wondered why the weather forecast for the
weekend changes from Monday to Friday?
Meteorologists use computer models to help make
forecasts, or predictions, about the chance of different
types of weather, such as rain or sun. The predictions are
based on data and that data can change on an hourly basis.
The closer to an actual day, the more data there will be.
This is why a five-day forecast is much more likely to be
accurate than a ten-day forecast. A forecast about the
weather in ten days is only right about half of the time!

Which of the following exponential functions goes through the points (1, 6) and (2, 12)? f(x) = 3(2)x f(x) = 2(3)x f(x) = 3(2)−x f(x) = 2(3)−x

Find the percent error of the measurement 4 cm

Our star pitcher, foster enlight, can throw a pitch so fast that it gets to the catcher’s mitt before it leaves foster’s fingers! if the team wins a game then the probability that foster was pitching is 0.8 but only if foster had at least one day’s rest since his last pitching assignment. if foster does not have a day off and the team still wins, the probability that foster was pitching drops by half of what it was on the previous day. if the team wins three games in succession from the toronto tachyons and foster pitched in game #2, what is the probability that he pitched in one or more of the other games? (assume that foster did not pitch on the day before the first game of this three game series.)
