Learning Activity Sheets: Quarter 3, Week 5 and 6

The document provides learning activity sheets on probability distribution and its properties, and computing probability corresponding to a given random variable. It includes an illustrative example about testing keyboards for defects and determining the probability distribution of the number of defective keyboards. The example is used to explain the key concepts and steps in determining the probability distribution of a random variable, including listing the sample space and possible outcomes, assigning values to the random variable, illustrating the probability distribution table, and computing the probabilities and their sum.

Probability Distribution and Its Properties


I. Discover
Before we have the definition of probability distribution for a discrete random
variable and its properties, we need to tackle the problem below to show how to deal
with probability distribution. Read and analyze the problem carefully.

Illustrative Example:
In a computer laboratory, the teacher wants to find out if there is a defective keyboard
among its computer set. Supposed three keyboards were tested at random, he asked
one of his learners to list all the possible outcomes, such that D represents the
defective keyboard and N represents the non-defective. Let X be the random variable
for the number of defective keyboards. Then, illustrate the probability distribution of
the random variable X.

Based on the given problem above, observe, analyze, and answer the following
questions:
a. List the sample space in the given experiment. How many outcomes are possible?
b. Construct a table showing the number of defective keyboards in each outcome and
assign this number to this outcome. What is the value of the random variable X?
c. Illustrate a probability distribution. What is the probability value P(X) to each value
of the random variable?
d. What is the sum of the probabilities of all values of the random variable?
e. What do you notice about the probability of each value of the random variable?

Solutions:
To solve the problem, you must consider first the steps in determining the values of
the random variable that you had learn from your previous discussion.

a. Let D represent the defective keyboard and N for non-defective computer. The
number of sample space of the given problem is 8. This is because there are three
keyboards subjected to inspection whether defective or non-defective,
n(S) = (2)(2)(2) = 23 = 8 sample space.
