Common Core State Standards (CCSS-M) — District of Columbia
This domain measures statistical reasoning, data analysis, and inference. This Algebra II reporting domain maps to 8 practice skills and 8 representative questions from the playable bank.
Common Core State Standards (CCSS-M) — District of Columbia
DC CAPE math continues DC’s PARCC-era alignment to the Common Core State Standards and uses the same general development/review approach described by OSSE. The page says DC Math follows the same rigorous development and review process and measures the knowledge and skills that matter most for DC students, while also explicitly tying the assessments to CCSS.
DC CAPE uses the PARCC-derived / Common Core-based framework (by grade domains structure).

A cold front is expected to reduce a reservoir's algae volume by of its previous amount each week. The volume is cubic meters at the start of week . Which equation models the algae volume , in cubic meters, after weeks?
A reduction of of the previous volume leaves a remaining factor of each week. Starting from , the volume after weeks is .
Four small data sets are listed below. Which set has the least standard deviation?
Set A:
Set B:
Set C:
Set D:
Set C has mean with values within one step of the center ( through ), giving the smallest standard deviation, about . Sets A, B, and D spread farther from their means.
Five quiz scores are and Which data set has the same mean?
The original mean is . The set also has mean , so the means match.
The practice times, in minutes, for five days are and Which data set has the same median?
In order, the original values have middle value , so the median is . The set also has median , so the medians match.
A student read , , , , , and pages on six days of a reading challenge. On a seventh day, she read pages. The mean number of pages read per day over all seven days is . What is the value of ?
Seven days with a mean of pages total . Since , .
A dot plot of quiz scores shows 4 dots above 8, 5 dots above 9, and 3 dots above 10. How many quiz scores are shown in all?
Each dot is one score: .
For a normal distribution, approximately what percent of data lies more than 2 standard deviations from the mean (counting both tails)? (Use the empirical rule; enter the number of percent.)
About of the data lies within 2 SD of the mean, so lies more than 2 SD away.
Find the mean of .
Mean .
