2. QUANTITATIVE REASONING

How do I measure, compare or represent it?

This goal is to think like a mathematician: to understand numbers, to analyze uncertainty, to comprehend the properties of shapes, and to study how things change over time.

  • How can I use numbers to evaluate my
  • hypothesis?
  • What numerical information can I collect
  • about this?
  • Can I estimate this quantity?
  • How can I represent this information as
  • a formula or diagram?
  • How can I interpret this formula or graph?
  • How can I measure its shape or structure?
  • What trends do I see? How does this
  • change over time?
  • What predictions can I make?
  • Can I show a correlation?
