LESSON PLAN IN STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY
CONTENT: Random variables and Probability Distribution
CONTENT STANDARD: The learner demonstrates an understanding of key concepts of random
variables and probability distributions.
PERFORMANCE STANDARD: The learner is able to apply an appropriate random variable for a given
real-life problem (such as in decision making and games of chance).
CODE: M11/12SP- IIIb- 4
I. OBJECTIVES:
At the end of the lesson, a student can:
1. solves problems involving mean and variance of probability distributions.
2. works cooperatively and harmoniously with other group members.
II. SUBJECT MATTER:
1. Topic: Solves problems involving mean and variance of probability distributions
2. Values Integrated: Cooperation, Openness, Appreciation
3. Reference: 5th Edition Elementary Statistics, M11/12SP-IIIb-4

III. PROCEDURE/LEARNING ACTIVITIES:
1. Preparatory Activities
A. Prayer
B. Checking of the attendance
2. Review Previous Lesson
Interprets the mean and the variance of a discrete random variable
3. Developmental Activities
A. Activity: The students will be group into 5, each group will be given problem
corresponds to their number and from it, the teacher draws out the concepts
reflected in LC 10. Then the students do the Think-Pair-Share (T- P -S) or
Collaborative Learning and sharing of solution is done with a group.
Note: Rubrics shall be determined based on students’ suggestions
B. Analysis: The teacher does Open Discussion with the whole class using the
following guide questions.
1. How do you find the activity?
2. How do you solve the problem?
3. What is/are step/s did you use?
4. Is this useful to our daily endeavor? Why or Why not?
C. Abstraction:
1. How is it done? What are the steps use?
Example 1. Suppose a classroom is randomly selected at a school.
Researchers want to determine the probability that a student is
taking exactly 4 classes. The data collected created the following
discrete probability distribution.
x 3 4 5 6
p(x ) 2 8 9 3
23 23 23 23
Mean: μ=∑ [ x . p (x) ]
Variance: σ 2=∑ [ x 2 . p(x) ]−μ2
Standard deviation: σ =√ a2
Step 1. Determine the Mean: µ=∑ [ x . p( x ) ] =4.5217

Mean: 3 x =.3913

6x =.7826

¿ .3913+1.3913+1.9565+.7826=4.5217
Step 2. Determine the variance: σ 2=∑ [ x 2 . p(x) ]−μ2
Variance: σ 2=∑ [ x 2 . p(x) ]−μ2

6 . =4.6957

¿ ( 1.1739+5.5652+9.7826+ 4.6957 )−(4.5217)2
= 21.2174 – (4.5217)2=.7716
Step 3. Determine the Standard Deviation: σ =√ σ 2
¿ √ .7716 2
¿ .878
Generalization: To solves problems determine the mean, variance
and standard deviation of probability distributions
D. Application:
Suppose a classroom is randomly selected at a public school.
Researchers want to determine the probability that a student is
taking exactly 4 classes. The data collected created the following
discrete probability distribution. Determine the mean, variance
and standard deviation.

IV. ASSESSMENT:
You plan to open a new Fried Chicken, and found these stats for similar
restaurants:
Percent Year's Earnings
20% Php50,000 Loss
30% Php0
40% Php50,000 Profit
10% Php150,000 Profit
Using that as probabilities for your new restaurant's profit, what is the Expected Value and
Standard Deviation?
