It is a numerical measure of the likelihood that a specific event will occur.

Ans. Probability
The mean, median and mode have different values in a normal distribution.
Ans. True
DOLE found that 83% of Filipinos think that having a college education is important to
succeed in life. If a random sample of 7 Filipinos is selected, find the probability that at most
two people will agree with that statement.
Ans. 0.0816
What is the probability that the total of two dice will be greater than 9, given that the first
die is a 5?
Ans. 1/3
It is a perfectly symmetric, mound-shaped distribution.
Normal distribution
The experiment consists of n independent, identical trials
As.Binomial Experiment

Determine what type of random variable is represented in the given scenario.


The amount of time represents a task.”
Ans. Continuous random variables
When you roll the two dice, what is the probability that the sum is 9?
Ans./9
This is a complete description of all the possible values of the random variable, along with
their associated probabilities.
Probability Distribution
Random means that the experiment may result in one of several possible values of the
variable.
True
It represents the numerical value of a simple event of an experiment.
Random variables
The experiment consists of counting the number of events that will occur during a specific
interval of time or in a specific distance, area, or volume.
Poisson Experiment
It is the square root of the variance.
ans.Standard deviation

It is applied when the probability of success are not the same from trial to trial.

ans.Probability Distribution
It is useful for describing the number of events that will occur during a specific interval of
time or in a specific distance, area, or volume.

Binomial Experiment

These are random variables that can assume all values between any two specific values.
Ans. Continuous random variables

mean is ________.
Ans.68%
The most common way to measure the spread of a normal distribution.
Ans.mean

Five balls numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are placed in a box. One is selected, its number is noted
and then it is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the variance of the
numbers on the balls.
Ans.2
Five balls numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are placed in a box. One is selected, its number is noted
and then it is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the standard
deviation of the numbers on the balls.
Ans.2
Five balls numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are placed in a box. One is selected, its number is noted
and then it is replaced. If this experiment is repeated many times, find the mean of the
numbers on the balls.
Ans.3
The normal curve is asymptotic.
Ans.true

The normal distribution is continuous.


True

Five hundred raffle tickets are sold at ₱25 each for three prizes of ₱4,000, ₱2,500, and
₱1,000. After each prize drawing, the winner ticket is then returned to the collection of
tickets. What is the mean or expected value if a person purchases four tickets?

19.20

It is a measure of how spread out the values are.


Standard deviation
The probability of success remains the same from trial to trial.
Binomial Experiment
It is a function or rule that assigns a number to each outcome of an experiment.
Random variable
