(STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY)

REMEDIAL PLAN (6/22/16)

SPECIFIC LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
K  Define random variable.

 Classify random variables as discrete or continuous.

S
 Find the possible values of a random variable.
A  Appreciate the importance of random variables in real life situations.
ASSESMENT:
Answer the following:
1. Four coins are tossed. Let Z be the random variable representing the number of heads
that occur. Find the values of the random variable Z.
Possible Outcomes Value of the Random Variable Z

2. Classify the following random variables as discrete and continuous.

a. The number of defective computers produced by a manufacturer
b. The weight of newborns each year in a hospital
c. The numbers of siblings in a family
d. The amount of paint utilized in a project
e. The speed of a car
f. The number of female athletes
g. The number of accidents per year at an intersection

STRATEGIES SIMs
ROUTINE ACTIVITIES:
REVIEW:
List the sample of the following experiment
a. Tossing three coins
b. Rolling a die
MOTIVATION:
If three coins are tossed, what number can be assigned for the frequency
of the heads that will occur?
If three cards are drawn from a deck, what number can be assigned for
the frequency of face cards that will occur?

PRESENTATION:
Today, you will be expected to illustrate and classify random variables.
And find the possible values of a random variable.
Variables are characteristics or attribute that can assume different
values.

1
ACTIVITY:
Supposed three coins are tossed. Let Y be the random variable
representing the number of tails that occur. Find the values of the
random variable Y. Complete the table below.
Possible Outcomes Value of the Random Variable
Y(number of tails)

ANALYSIS:
1. What is a random variable?
2. How do you describe a discrete random variable?
3. How do you describe a continuous random variable?
4. State the steps in finding the value of a random variable.

ABSTRACTION:
 What is the difference between discrete and continuous random
variables?
 How do you know whether a random variable is continuous or
discrete?
 How do you find the value possible values of a random variables?
APPLICATION:
Drawing balls from an Urn

Possible Outcome Values of the Random Variable Z

(no. of blue balls)

ASSIGNMENT:
