It's mostly a graphical / algebra based analysis to get at the basics of what district ranking is and how your ranking at an event factors into it.
Note: I haven't taken any statistics classes and we're not yet in districts, so I'm not sure if everything I wrote is completely accurate. Please let me know if anything is wrong and I'll try to correct it.

Reason: 1. Fixed typo in the text. 2. Fixed typos in the document, replaced link. (I should proofread more carefully...)
