If you pay attention and hand in your homework, I'm sure we can all get along. --TruthShallSetYouFree
Here is my example with WFTD:
During the election season, we are flooded with economic statistics. Democrats will
use the ones that shows Obama in the most favorable least unfavorable light.
The mean household income in this country will be significantly higher than the
median income, since the former is skewed by those one-percenters who bring the
average up, while the latter is calculated by placing all of the household incomes
in order and choosing the one in the middle. In other words, exactly half of the
households earn more than the median income, and exactly half earn less.
No pushing at the door please!
Sorry about the extraneous HTML code in the title. It’s my first time and I got a little carried away.
1. Good morning!
Good morning. My very first student. Where’s my Apple? And, by Apple, I mean iPad.
So, if we rate each of Harry Reid’s lies as follows:
Little White Lies - 1 point
Big Black Lies - 2 points
Holy Cow Whoppers - 3 points
And, for argument’s sake, let’s say he’s told the following number of lies:
Little White Lies - 50,000
Big Black Lies - 100,000
Holy Cow Whoppers - 10,000
Then the mean of Harry Reid’s meanness would be:
(50,000 + 2x100,000 + 3x10,000)/160,000 = 1.75
And the median of his meanness would be 2? (Did I get that right?)
And if you have a bowl of ice cream while you’re calculating all of this, you’re calculating Reid’s mean meanness a la mode.
Perfect! A+++++ which is the highest grade I’ve ever given. It’s also the lowest grade I’ve ever given because, statistically speaking, it’s the only grade I’ve ever given. Well done!
A+. Hillary dancing still beats Obama talking.
OMG, truthy, what is this MATH CLASS????? ; ) congrats on your first day of teaching these miscreants!
What it adds up to is that 0bama is a mean mode of Focker whose administration should be abandoned in the middle of the median.
just sent that clip to my entire family titling it a Crime Against Humanity. Even the title is just WRONG!!!
May i also observe that the pantsuited one assumed the MALE role in that type of dance, dancing behind the big mama in that way.
Thanks. There is a strong confluence between math and politics this election cycle. We keep trying to bring up trivialities like the unbalanced budget, the incredible deficit, and the staggering unemployment rate. They would rather talk about important subjects, like how many hairs Mitt Romney cut off a fellow student a half century ago, or the ratio of taxes to income he paid on his 1979 return.
Very, very clever. A++++
also, for gym class today, i brought some ZUMBA! i asked the latino girlie teacher last night what this song was, bc i love it, and so i now have it on my ipod. I suggest we all go out and do it on the MEDIAN strip at lunchtime, i MEAN i love this MODE of exercise : )
And how many dead angels can dance on the head of an election lever.
it is because the media is criminally biased that the entire political landscape makes it seem like we are down the rabbithole into wonderland. Witness the fact that romney is faulted for lack of transparency bc of his tax records when Obama has hermetically sealed his entire past life!
that is about the most clever thing NNB has ever produced, i loved it!
Omg. You r doing trendy?
