Abstract	This article presents material that has been used as a classroom activity in a calculus-based probability and statistics course. The application was used in the first few lessons of this course. Students had three previous semesters of math, including calculus (single and multivariable), differential equations, and a course in mathematical modeling. No previous science courses are prerequisites for the course. (Contains 5 tables and 7 figures.) (As Provided).
