Work sample Year 10 Mathematics: Predict a winner

This work sample demonstrates evidence of student learning in relation to aspects of the achievement standards for Year 10 Mathematics. The primary purpose for the work sample is to demonstrate the standard, so the focus is on what is evident in the sample not how it was created. The sample is an authentic representation of student work and may contain errors such as spelling mistakes and other inaccuracies. In this work sample students: • plan and conduct statistical investigations involving bivariate data • represent the distribution of data involving 2 variables, using tables and scatter plots, and comment on possible association • analyse inferences  and conclusions in the media, noting potential sources of bias • compare the distribution of continuous numerical  data  using various displays, and discuss distributions in terms of centre, spread, shape and outliers.
