    Random variables can take on discrete or continuous values depending on the type of experiment. Discrete random variables have a countable number of possible outcomes, like the number of heads from flipping a coin three times. Continuous random variables can take an infinite number of values within a range, like measurements of height, weight, or temperature. Experiments are activities that can be repeated under similar conditions, with outcomes making up the sample space. For example, rolling a die has six possible outcomes.

    Stat and Prob

    Random Variable is a capacity that connects a real number with every component in the sample space.
    It is a variable whose qualities are controlled by chance.

    Discrete Random Variables are variables that can take on a finite number of distinct values. In easier
    definition, discrete random variable is a set of possible outcomes that is countable.

    Examples are the number of heads acquired while flipping a coin three times, the number of defective
    chairs, the number of boys in the family, the number of students present in the online class, and more.

    Continuous Random Variable are random variables that take an infinitely uncountable number of
    potential values, regularly measurable amounts.

    Often, continuous random variables represent measured data, such as height, weights, and
    temperature.

    Experiments are any movement or activity which can be dome repeatedly under similar or comparative
    condition. The outcomes are the result of a given experiment while the sample space is the set of all
    possible outcomes of an experiment. Let us have an example to illustrate this: rolling a die (dice) is an
    example of experiment.

    Find the area of z = 1.56

    First row = .06

    Therefore the area is = 0.4406

    Understanding the Standard Normal Curve

    The standard normal curve is a normal probability distribution that is most commonly
    used as a model for inferential statistics. It has a mean µ = 0 and a standard
    deviation σ = 1.

    The totality of subjects (people, animals or objects) under consideration is called


    population

    The portion chosen from a population is called sample


    The process of taking samples is called sampling

    N!
    NCn = ( N−n ) ! n ! ( example in coupon)

    X−µ
    Z= σ ( solution in coupon)
    √n
    Example:
    During this time of pandemic, a certain group of welfare recipients receives cash benefits of ₱1,100.00
    per week with a standard deviation of ₱200. If a random sample of 25 is taken, what is the probability
    that their mean benefit is greater than ₱ 1,200.00 per week? Solution in the coupon>

    The Symbol for variance is, σ2


    Normal distribution, also known as Gaussian distribution
    In graph form normal distribution or simply normal curve will appear as a, bell curve
    The Table of Areas under the Normal Curve is also known as the, Z - Table
    The Z- score is a measure of relative standing
    William Sealy Gosset was one of the first to discover the Student’s t – distribution.
    The person who discover the Student’s t – distribution is, an English Statistician
