Cluster:
Interpret linear models.

Standard:
Distinguish between correlation and causation. *

Cluster:
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers.

Standard:
Know that numbers that are not rational are called irrational. Understand informally that every number has a decimal expansion; for rational numbers show that the decimal expansion repeats eventually, and convert a decimal expansion which repeats eventually into a rational number.

Cluster:
Know that there are numbers that are not rational, and approximate them by rational numbers.

Standard:
Use rational approximations of irrational numbers to compare the size of irrational numbers, locate them approximately on a number line diagram, and estimate the value of expressions (e.g.,π^2). For example, by truncating the decimal expansion of √2, show that √2 is between 1 and 2, then between 1.4 and 1.5, and explain how to continue on to get better approximations.

Cluster:
Use probability to evaluate outcomes of decisions. [Introductory; apply counting rules.]

Standard:
(+) Use probabilities to make fair decisions (e.g., drawing by lots, using a random number generator). *

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

Standard:
Use the mean and standard deviation of a data set to fit it to a normal distribution and to estimate population percentages. Recognize that there are data sets for which such a procedure is not appropriate. Use calculators, spreadsheets, and tables to estimate areas under the normal curve. *
