What the test measures

Statistics and Probability skills

  1. Investigate patterns of association in bivariate data

  2. Construct and interpret scatter plots

  3. Construct and interpret two-way tables

  4. Analyze relationships between two variables using lines of best fit

Standards basis

Missouri Learning Standards (Mathematics K-5 and Mathematics 6-12; revised standards approved April 19, 2016) — Missouri

How the MO MAP reports it

Missouri’s MAP math is built from the Missouri Learning Standards and the state’s item specifications, not from a separate national testing framework. The standards are closely CCSS-aligned in structure, with grade-level and course-level domains used as the native reporting/coverage structure.

Blueprint & weighting

Missouri publishes grade-level and EOC blueprints, but the accessible official pages in this pass did not expose the domain-by-domain percentage tables. The assessment page states that item specifications organize expectations by domains/strands and that blueprints are available for grade-level and EOC assessments.

A trend line predicts Mia will spell 1818 words correctly in a spelling bee. She actually spells 2121 words correctly. What is the residual (actual minus predicted)?

Residual =2118=3= 21 - 18 = 3 words.

A two-way table has rows Bike/Scooter and columns Morning/Afternoon: Bike&Morning=11, Bike&Afternoon=7, Scooter&Morning=5. In all, 29 trips were recorded. How many trips are Scooter&Afternoon?

The three known cells sum to 11+7+5=2311+7+5=23, so the missing cell is 2923=629-23=6.

A line of best fit for the number of lawns Jaden mows xx and his savings yy in dollars is y=15x+40y = 15x + 40. According to the line, how many dollars did Jaden have saved before mowing any lawns?

At x=0x = 0 lawns, y=40y = 40: the yy-intercept is the starting savings.

A trend line for hours studied xx and quiz score yy is y=4x+62y = 4x + 62. What score does the line predict for a student who studies 33 hours?

Substitute x=3x = 3: y=4(3)+62=12+62=74y = 4(3) + 62 = 12 + 62 = 74.

A trend line predicts that a bakery will sell 7575 bagels on Monday. The bakery actually sells 7979 bagels. What is the residual (actual value minus predicted value)?

Residual == actual - predicted =7975=4= 79 - 75 = 4.

A two-way table has rows Dog/Cat and columns Boys/Girls: Dog&Boys=10, Dog&Girls=6, Cat&Boys=5, Cat&Girls=9. What fraction of all surveyed were Dog and Boys? Simplify.

1030=13\dfrac{10}{30} = \dfrac{1}{3}.
