How the FAST reports it

Florida’s FAST Mathematics is a state-specific assessment program aligned to the Florida B.E.S.T. Standards rather than a national framework. The published blueprint organizes results by reporting categories derived from B.E.S.T. domains, with separate blueprints for grades 3-8 FAST Mathematics and the B.E.S.T. Algebra 1 and Geometry EOCs.

Blueprint & weighting

Florida publishes blueprint percentage ranges by reporting category. The 2025-26 fact sheet states each PM event is tied to a blueprint for the full grade-level content, and the test design summary gives approximate item ranges per reporting category; the reporting-category statements note that a minimum of 15% of raw score points should come from each reporting category, with some domains combined when needed.

Find the area of a triangle with base $b = 8$ and height $h = 9$ .

Triangle area $= \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot b \cdot h = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot 8 \cdot 9 = 36$ .

A student tracked minutes spent studying each night for $16$ nights. The frequency table shows the results.
$\begin{array}{c|c} \text{Minutes studied} & \text{Number of nights} \\ \hline 10 & 2 \\ 20 & 4 \\ 30 & 3 \\ 40 & 5 \\ 50 & 2 \end{array}$

What is the median number of minutes studied per night?

Expand to $16$ values: $10, 10, 20, 20, 20, 20, 30, 30, 30, 40, 40, 40, 40, 40, 50, 50$ . The $8$ th and $9$ th values are both $30$ , so the median is $30$ minutes.

The statistical question "How many minutes is your ride to school?" produced the data $3, 8, 10, 15$ . What is the range of the data?

The range describes the spread: greatest value minus least value. $15 - 3 = 12$ .

A student is writing questions about trees. Which of these is a statistical question?

A statistical question anticipates variability: many people or things can give different answers. "How tall are the trees in the park?" asks about many trees, so the heights can differ. It is a statistical question.

A cyclist records five ride distances, in miles: $12$ , $15$ , $18$ , $21$ , and $24$ . Another ride distance is added to the data set, but its length is not given. How does this affect the mean?

The mean of the five known distances can be found, but the effect of the change depends on the unknown sixth distance. Without that value, the new mean cannot be determined.

Seven morning temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, are $62\textsf{,}$ $64\textsf{,}$ $66\textsf{,}$ $75\textsf{,}$ $70\textsf{,}$ $72\textsf{,}$ and $67\textsf{.}$ What is the mean temperature?

Mean $= \dfrac{62 + 64 + 66 + 75 + 70 + 72 + 67}{7} = \dfrac{476}{7} = 68$ .

Five afternoon temperatures, in degrees Fahrenheit, are $64\textsf{,}$ $78\textsf{,}$ $72\textsf{,}$ $60\textsf{,}$ and $66\textsf{.}$ What is the median temperature?

In order, the values are $60\textsf{,}$ $64\textsf{,}$ $66\textsf{,}$ $72\textsf{,}$ $78\textsf{.}$ The median is the middle value, $66\textsf{.}$
