What the test measures

Statistics and Probability skills

  1. Summarize, represent, and interpret data on a single count or measurement variable

  2. Make inferences and justify conclusions from sample surveys, experiments, and observational studies

  3. Use probability to evaluate outcomes of decisions

How the Georgia Milestones reports it

Georgia Milestones is Georgia’s own statewide assessment system, aligned to Georgia’s state-adopted content standards rather than a shared national test framework. The official page says it measures knowledge and skills in the state-adopted standards for mathematics across grades 3 through high school ([Georgia Department of Education](https://gadoe.org/assessment-accountability/georgia-milestones/)).

Four data sets record the number of pages read in four or five sessions. Which set has the least standard deviation?

Set A:
4,8,12,164, 8, 12, 16
Set B:
6,8,10,12,146, 8, 10, 12, 14
Set C:
7,8,9,10,117, 8, 9, 10, 11
Set D:
2,6,10,14,182, 6, 10, 14, 18

Set C has mean 99 with consecutive values from 77 to 1111, each only one or two units from the center, giving the smallest standard deviation, about 1.41.4. Sets A, B, and D spread farther from their means.

The ages, in years, of seven students are 10,10\textsf{,} 16,16\textsf{,} 14,14\textsf{,} 8,8\textsf{,} 13,13\textsf{,} 15,15\textsf{,} and 8.8\textsf{.} Which data set has the same mean?

The original mean is 10+16+14+8+13+15+87=12\dfrac{10 + 16 + 14 + 8 + 13 + 15 + 8}{7} = 12. The set 6,6\textsf{,} 8,8\textsf{,} 10,10\textsf{,} 12,12\textsf{,} 14,14\textsf{,} 16,16\textsf{,} 1818 also has mean 1212, so the means match.

Seven game scores are 90,90\textsf{,} 70,70\textsf{,} 82,82\textsf{,} 75,75\textsf{,} 95,95\textsf{,} 60,60\textsf{,} and 88.88\textsf{.} Which data set has the same median?

In order, the original values have middle value 8282, so the median is 8282. The set 63,63\textsf{,} 65,65\textsf{,} 72,72\textsf{,} 82,82\textsf{,} 88,88\textsf{,} 88,88\textsf{,} 9999 also has median 8282, so the medians match.

At trivia night, a team answered 66, 88, 77, and 99 questions correctly in the first four rounds. In the fifth round, the team answered xx questions correctly. The mean number of correct answers per round is 88. What is the value of xx?

Five rounds with a mean of 88 correct answers total 5×8=405 \times 8 = 40. Since 6+8+7+9=306 + 8 + 7 + 9 = 30, x=4030=10x = 40 - 30 = 10.

A histogram has bins 0-9: 4 values, 10-19: 7 values, 20-29: 5 values. How many data values are there in all?

Add bin frequencies: 4+7+5=164+7+5=16.

A normal distribution has mean 100100 and standard deviation 1515. What value is 1 standard deviation above the mean?

100+1×15=115100 + 1\times15 = 115.

A PE class uses a spinner with 33 equal sections to assign stations: Strength, Cardio, and Flexibility. After 300300 spins, the results were:

| Station | Spins |
| :-- | --: |
| Strength |
145145 |
| Cardio |
8888 |
| Flexibility |
6767 |

Which change would most likely make the spinner fair?

Three equal sections should each be chosen about 3003=100\dfrac{300}{3}=100 times (33%33\%). Strength was chosen 145145 times (48%48\%), so its section is too large, and Flexibility was chosen only 6767 times (22%22\%), so its section is too small. Moving area from Strength to Flexibility corrects both the over- and under-represented stations.
