ACT Statistics and Probability - Complete Interactive Lesson

Part 1: Mean, Median, Mode

๐Ÿ“‹ Statistics Probability

Part 1 of 7 โ€” Mean, Median, Mode

Mean = sum/count; Median = middle value (sorted); Mode = most frequent.

Weighted average: multiply each value by its weight, then divide by total weight.

Check Your Understanding ๐ŸŽฏ

Key Insight: Effect of adding/removing values: track the sum.

ACT Tip: Range = max - min.

Part 2: Data Displays

Data Displays

Part 2 of 7 โ€” Data Displays

Bar graphs, histograms, line graphs, pie charts, stem-and-leaf plots.

Read axes labels and scales carefully.

Check Your Understanding ๐ŸŽฏ

Key Insight: Box plots: min, Q1, median, Q3, max.

ACT Tip: Histograms show frequency distribution โ€” bars touch (no gaps).

Part 3: Counting Principles

Counting Principles

Part 3 of 7 โ€” Counting Principles

Fundamental counting principle: if event A has m outcomes and B has n outcomes, together they have m ร— n outcomes.

Tree diagrams help visualize sequential events.

Check Your Understanding ๐ŸŽฏ

Key Insight: With replacement: probabilities stay the same.

ACT Tip: Without replacement: probabilities change (dependent events).

Part 4: Basic Probability

Basic Probability

Part 4 of 7 โ€” Basic Probability

P(event) = favorable outcomes / total outcomes.

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B).

Check Your Understanding ๐ŸŽฏ

Key Insight: P(A and B) = P(A) ร— P(B|A).

ACT Tip: Complement: P(not A) = 1 - P(A).

Part 5: Combinations & Permutations

Combinations & Permutations

Part 5 of 7 โ€” Combinations & Permutations

Permutation (order matters): nPr = n!/(n-r)!.

Combination (order doesn't matter): nCr = n!/[r!(n-r)!].

Check Your Understanding ๐ŸŽฏ

Key Insight: Factorial: n! = n ร— (n-1) ร— ... ร— 2 ร— 1.

ACT Tip: ACT tip: ask "does order matter?" to decide which formula to use.
