]]>Problema:
Tutor
Welcome! How are you?
Student
hello! good!
Tutor
Tell me, what can I do for you today?
Student
twell, im not sure how to find the standard error here for a difference in proportions
Tutor
ok, let’s find the proportions first, can you calculate them?
Student
.25 and .125
Tutor
Excellent! You did that step perfectly. the formula for the SE is…
is that familiar to you?
Student
yeah, thats what i thought i originally did, i may have made a calculator error
Tutor
let’s check it together then. well done!
how much is the first term inside the square root?
Student
.0036
Tutor
perfect!
what about the second term?
Student
and .0012
Tutor
well done, if we add them we get 0.00485. right?
Student
and then we square root for .069!
Tutor
perfect!
check that the square root is 0.0696
Student
yup! i got .0693 but i think its close enough
Tutor
if we take the first three digits after the dot, the approximation is 0.070
Great job on that one! Nicely done.
Student
actually, unrounded i did get 696, awesome, thank you for your help!
Tutor
you are welcome , Do you have any questions about anything we went over today?
Student
nope, thanks again!

My name is Anahid, How are you? Student [00:00:44] hello im great…

[00:00:10] Welcome! My name is Anahid, How are you?
Student
[00:00:44] hello im great how are you?
Tutor
[00:01:04] I’m great too! Thanks
[00:01:11] Tell me, what can I do for you today?
Student
[00:01:34] i wrote the problem up there ^
[00:01:39] i dont know what to do
Tutor
[00:02:00] are you familiar with the concept of correlation?
Student
[00:02:09] yes somewhat.
Tutor
[00:02:31] can you tell me what correlation means?
Student
[00:03:35] its a relationship or connection between two things
[00:03:41] if they are related or not..
Tutor
[00:03:52] that’s right!
[00:04:08] the correlation express the relation between two variables
[00:04:22] so if there is an almost zero correlation
[00:04:31] what that means?
Student
[00:04:57] there is no correlation
Tutor
[00:05:05] that’s right
[00:05:07] !
[00:05:25] here is a web site that can help use to see it better
Student
[00:05:59] ok great, thanks!
Tutor
[00:06:14] can you see the graphs?
Student
[00:06:23] yes
Tutor
[00:06:28] look at the one that says zero correlation
[00:06:49] we have two variables, each one represented by an axis
[00:07:35] can we predict one from the other?
Student
[00:07:56] theyre not related?
Tutor
[00:08:07] that’s right
[00:08:36] we can not predict one from the other
[00:08:49] those dots are random
[00:09:03] Does this problem make sense to you now?
Student
[00:09:27] yes
[00:09:38] but i dont get what independent
[00:09:42] or dependent mean
Tutor
[00:10:15] dependent means that the value of one variable depends on the value of the other
[00:10:23] independent is the opposite
[00:10:38] it means that the variables are not related
Student
[00:10:48] oh so a?
[00:10:51] independent
Tutor
[00:10:56] does this sound familiar to you?
[00:11:03] Great job on that one! Nicely done.
Student
[00:11:02] yes
Tutor
[00:11:15] Perfect! Good work.
[00:11:21] Do you have any questions about anything we went over today?
Student
[00:11:24] thank you!
[00:11:30] no thats it

Student Question: Employment data at a large company reveal that 72% of workers are married, that 44% are college graduates, and that half of the college grads are married. What’s the probability that a randomly chosen worker is: a) neither married nor a college graduate? b) is married but not a college graduate? c) is married 9or a college graduate?
Tutor: Welcome! My name is Anahid. How are you?
Student: Good. U?
Tutor: I’m great! Thanks. Tell me, what can I do for you today?
Student: I have a entire assignment to do like the problem stated, and I’m not sure how to get it solved. I started with a contingency table, but that’s it…
Tutor: well done!
Student: that’s as far as i get….
Tutor: check that we also know the totals, how many of them are married?
well done!, check that married and not married must sum 100%
how many are not married?
Student: 56?
Tutor: well done!(but 56 is for not college)
Student: oh, sorry
Tutor: Very close — let’s take another look and see what we missed.
we are setting college graduates on the line
and married on the column
44% are college graduates
so 100%-44%=56% are not college graduates
Do you understand how we did that last part?
Student: No
I do. the complimentary rule?
Tutor: that’s right!
Student: okay. I follow you now! :)
Tutor: let’s do the same with the married on the last column
72% are married, how much are not married?
Student: 28%
Tutor: Excellent! You did that step perfectly.
Do you know what to do next?
Student: for college grad and not married, it would be 22%, is that correct?
Tutor: Perfect! Good work.
what about for married and not college grad?
Student: 50%?
Tutor: Great job on that one! Nicely done.
Student: :D
Tutor: can you complete the table?
You got it!
Student: yay!
Tutor: now we are ready to answer the questions
Student: okay
Tutor: how much is the answer on letter a?
Student: 6% ??
Tutor: well done!
what about letter b?
Student: 50%
Tutor: Perfect! Good work.
what about the last one?
Student: 31.7%?
72% x44%?
Tutor: Very close — let’s take another look and see what we missed.
let’s focus on the center of the table
Student: okay
Tutor: can you circle the ones that are married?
well done!
what about the ones that are college graduates?
well done!
if we were to find the ones that are married OR college grad we should add all the circles
how much will that be?
Student: 94%?
Tutor: Great job on that one! Nicely done.
Does this problem make sense to you now?
Student: or = addition?
Tutor: yes, but be careful, we did not add 44% and 72%
Student: haha… too much!!!
because they could be married and not grad, grad and not married, and married or grad… all three are feasable choices!!??
Tutor: that’s right, but if we added 44%+72% we will be counting the 22% od the intersection twice
Student: I get it!!! Makes sense now!
Tutor: check that 44%+72%-22%=94%
Do you have any questions about anything we went over today?
Student: No, everything was great!. Very good explanation of everything! Have a good evening!
Tutor: Thank you, Have a good evening too!
