Population and Sample Mean
Arithmetic mean is the most frequently

used measure of central tendency. The mean
is the only common measure in which all
values play an equal role meaning to
determine its values needed to consider all
the values of any given data set.
Arithmetic Mean
The symbol X , called “X bar” is used to

represent the mean of a sample and the symbol
 , called “mu”, is used to denote the mean of
a population.
Properties of Mean
1) A set of data has only one mean.

2) All values in the data set are included in
computing the mean.
3) The mean is very useful in comparing two or
more data sets.
Properties of Mean
4) Mean is affected by the extreme

small or large values on a data set.
5) The mean cannot be computed for the

data in a frequency distribution with
ended classes.

Sample Mean for Ungrouped Data
Example: The daily rates of a sample of eight

employees at GMS Inc. are P550, P420, P560,
P500, P700, P670, P860 and P480. Find the
mean daily rate of employees.

Example: Find the population mean of the

ages of 9 middle-management employees of
a certain company. The ages are 53, 45, 59,

Sample Mean for Grouped Data
Example: AC Travel and Tours, a nationwide

local travel agency, offers special rates on
Christmas period. The owner wants additional
information on the ages of those people taking
travel tours. A random sample of 50 customers
taking travel tours last summer
revealed these ages.

Weighted Mean
Weighted Mean
✓Is used when various classes or groups

contribute differently to the total. The
weighted mean is found by multiplying each
value by its corresponding weight and
dividing by the sum of weights.
Weighted Mean

Xw = i =1 wi = corresponding weight

 wi

X i = the value of any particular
observations

=
w1 + w2 + ... + wn
Weighted Mean
Example: At the Mathematics Department of

Pacific Intercontinental Colleges, there are 18
instructors, 12 assistant professors, 7
associate professors and 3 professors. Their
monthly salaries are P30,500, P33,700,
P38,600 and P45,000 respectively. What is
the weighted mean salary?

18(30,500) + 12(33,700) + 7(38,600) + 3(45,000)

1,358,600

= P 33,965 is the weighted mean salary.
ACTIVITY/ ASSIGNMENT
• Compute for the mean and weighted mean of the
following:
1. A call center monitored the length of time needed to

resolve customer’s service issue. For 10 customers, the
time in minutes to resolve each issue is listed in the
following data set.
18, 24, 45, 21, 22, 31, 16, 21, 35, 47

2. At Mang Kanor Grocery, there are 10
baggers, 5 cashiers and 3 staffs. Their
monthly salaries are 10, 500, 15, 200,
and 12, 800 respectively. Find the
weighted mean of their salary.
Write your answers on A4 size of bond paper. Submit the
output on or before February 11, 2023.
HAPPY LEARNING!!!
