Lesson
RANDOM SAMPLING
1

Learning Concepts
In daily life, we are oriented with basic concepts in statistics. When we want to
know whether several packs of batteries are free from defects, it would be time
consuming to examine all of them piece by piece. How will you do the quality test?
Probably you can do this by examining a few samples from each pack.

In this lesson, you will be introduced to some statistical procedures and

measures that are used to draw conclusions and inferences for large groups.

What’s In
Activity 1. Recalling Sample and Population
Study the following and dentify the sample and population in each situation.
1. A housewife buys a sack of rice. She examined only a handful of rice from the
sack to find out whether it is of good quality or not.
Sample___________________________
Population________________________

2. Your mother wants to know the taste of food she is cooking or preparing. She
tasted only a spoonful of it.

Sample___________________________
Population________________________

3. The teacher wants to know the common height of OHS student in Lala
National High School. She got only 10 OHS students from each year level.

Question: How will you describe a sample? Population? Write your answer in
the table below.
Term Description
Sample
population

Where you able to recall the description of a sample and a population?

Now that you can identify the sample and population, let us deepen your
understanding by identifying a sample that is a good representative of a
population.

What’sNew
Activity 2. Am I a Representative?
Which of the following samples is a good representative of the described
population? Why?
1. Mila wants to know the common brand of cellphone her classmates have.

a. A sample consisting of Mila’s close friends

b. A sample consisting of Mila’s classmates belonging to rich families
c. A sample consisting her classmates whose names were drawn from a box
containing all the names of her classmates.

Answer:____________________________________________________

2. The SSG president of the school wants to know who among the young actors
and actresses is the most admired by the senior high school students.

a. A sample consisting all the class officers of every SHS class

b. A sample consisting of the male students of every SHS class
c. A sample consisting of the students whose names are drawn from each box
containing the names of every SHS class.
Answer: ____________________________________________________

Downloaded by Daizy Ann Bautista ([email protected])

 lOMoARcPSD|26583392

Learning Concepts
Wrong conclusion maybe drawn from samples in letters a and b. These
samples will not represent the common brand of cellphone of Mila’s classmates
and the SHS student’s most admired young actors and actresses. The samples
in letter c is the best representation of the described population.

Now that you know the idea of representativeness of a sample for a

population, the next activity will lead you to the process of getting a sample
which are good representatives of a population. This process is called random
sampling.

5. To select the students who will represent the school in the Math Olympics, the
Principal gathered all students living near the school and gave them a qualifying
test.

Answer:_______________

Learning Concepts
Were you able to determine whether the method of getting a sample in
the above situations is random or not? For sure you were able to do it. Now,
you will be introduced to the different random sampling techniques

Types of Random Sampling Techniques

Simple Random/Lottery Sampling – a sampling technique by which every
member of the population has an equal chance to be chosen as sample (drawn
by lot)
Systematic Sampling – a sampling technique by which every member of the
population is selected with a random start.
Stratified Random sampling – a sampling technique that is used when the
population can be classified into groups or strata based on some characteristics
such as age, gender or socioeconomic status.
Cluster sampling – a sampling technique by which the sample is taken from
different levels generally from higher levels to lower levels
Multi-Stage Sampling – a sampling technique that is done using the
combination of different sampling techniques.

Additional Activity
Activity 4. Identify Me
Identify the type of random sampling illustrated by the following situations.

Philippines. He wants to select a sample of 400 from the different groups of his
constituents, from the youths, adults, and from the senior citizens.
Answer:_____________________

2. To select his representatives for the Youth Conference at Baguio City, the
teacher listed all the names of his students in a small piece of paper which are
rolled and then mixed together and pick out 10 rolled papers at random.

Answer:_____________________

3. A researcher wish to draw a sample of 200 persons from a population of 600.

He selects every 5th person in the list and numbers 1 to 10 will be randomly
selected to act as a starting point.

Answer:_____________________

4. In a survey, the samples were randomly taken from subsequent cities, then
municipalities or barangays, and then households.
Answer: _____________________
5. To choose the sample respondents for a national survey, the researcher used
the lottery method in identifying the regions or cities to be chosen. Then, he
used the stratified random sampling to determine the samples from the certain
areas or clusters.

Answer:______________________

Learning Concepts

Now that you know the different sampling techniques, the next thing that
you need to know is to determine the sample size to be taken from the
population.

Illustrative example:

Supposing that your school has a population of 5,000 students and you
want to know the average height of the students, it would be impractical to
interview or to get the height of all students. All you need to do is to determine
the sample size that will estimate the whole population. To do this, we will use
the Slovin’s Formula in getting the sample size.

Downloaded by Daizy Ann Bautista ([email protected])

 lOMoARcPSD|26583392

n = _N___
1 + Ne2

Where n = sample size

N = number of population
e = margin of error

considering e = 0.05 in the above situation where N = 5,000

n = ___5,000_____
1 + 5,000(0.05)2

n = 370.4 or 371

Hence, you must select randomly 371 students as your sample. The result is
rounded up since this is getting samples from a population.

If the sample size obtained will be distributed by the table below, how many
samples will be taken randomly from each Grade level?

Grade Level No. of

Students
Grade 7 1,100
Grade 8 980
Grade 9 900
Grade 10 850
Grade 11 680
Grade 12 490
Total 5,000

Solution:
To get the sample size from each Grade level, divide the number of
students per year level by the total number of students then multiply the quotient
by the required sample size.

Grade 7 : (1,100  5,000 ) x 371 = 81.62 ≈ 82 students

Grade 8: ( 980  5,000 ) x 371 = 72.72 ≈ 73 students
Grade 9 ; ( 900  5,000 ) x 371 = 66.78 ≈ 67 students
Grade 10: ( 850 5,000 ) x 371 = 63.07 ≈ 63 students
Grade 11: ( 680  5,000 ) x 371 = 50.46 ≈ 50 students
Grade 12: ( 490  5,000 ) x 371 = 36.36 ≈ 36 students

What I Have Learned

Questions: 1. When does a certain situation describes statistics?
Parameter?
Answer:________________________________
2.How is statistics differ from parameter?
Answer: ________________________________

Statistic describes a sample as an estimate for the whole population.

The fact is about a very large population in which you can’t imagine
the time and money to be spent to survey the entire population.
Parameter describes the entire population. The fact is about the
whole population that is easy to figure out because the groups are
small enough to measure.

MEAN AND VARIANCE OF

Lesson THE SAMPLING
4 DISTRIBUTION OF SAMPLE
MEANS

Learning Concepts
In the previous lessons, you have learned how to find the sample mean and
how to construct a sampling distribution of the sample means. In this lesson, you will
know how to find the mean and variance of a sampling distribution of the sample
means.
Illustrative Example:
Consider a population consisting the ages of SHS students 15, 16, 17, 18, and
19. Suppose samples of 3 are drawn from this population, how will you describe the
sampling distribution of the sample means.
Solution:
When we describe the sampling distribution of the sample means, we need to
determine the mean and the variance of the sampling distribution of the sample means
and compare these to the mean and variance of the given population.

Steps 1. Solve for the mean of the population ( μ )

μ ∑x
=
N
= 15+16+17+18+19
5
= 85  5

SAMPLING DISTRIBUTION OF
Lesson
THE SAMPLE MEANS FROM

AN INFINITE POPULATION

Learning Concepts
An Infinite population is a population that contains an infinite number of
elements.

Illustrative example:

A certain population has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 4. If

15 random samples are drawn from from this population, how will you describe the
sampling distribution of the sample means?

Solutions:

We shall assume that the population is infinite because we are only given its
mean and its standard deviation. Again, when you are asked to describe the sampling
distribution, you need to solve its mean, its variance and its standard deviation.

Step 1. Identify the given information.

Population mean μ = 50
Standard Deviation δ = 4 which implies that the variance δ2 =16
Number of samples = 15

Step 2. Find the mean of the sampling distribution

μ X̅ = μ
= 50
Step 3. Determine the variance of the sampling distribution using the property
σ2
𝜎𝜎 2𝑋𝑋̅ =

= 1.067

Step 4. Determine the standard deviation of the sampling distribution using

the Property

Hence, the sampling distribution of the sample means has a mean of

50, variance of 1.067, and a standard deviation of 1.033.

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample means is also
called standard error of the mean. It tells how accurate is the sample mean to estimate
the population mean. If the value of the standard deviation is small or very close to
zero, then the sample mean is a good estimate for the population mean. If the value
of the standard deviation is large, the mean is a poor estimate for the population mean.

A good estimate for the population mean can be obtained if the random sample
size n is sufficiently large. This is stated as a theorem which is called The Central Limit
Theorem.

Theorem

What Is It

Example 1. A certain population has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 5. If

random sample of 15 measurements is drawn from this population, how
will you describe the sampling distribution of the sample means ?
Assuming that the population is infinite,
Step 1. Identify the given information.

μ X̅ = μ = 50

𝜎𝜎 = 5 ; n = 15

Step 2. Determine the mean of the sampling distribution. Use the property that
μ X̅ = μ

μ X̅ = 𝜇𝜇 = 50

Step 3. Solve the standard deviation of the sampling distribution. Use the
property that
𝜎𝜎
𝜎𝜎𝑥𝑥̅ =
√𝑛𝑛

15
𝜎𝜎𝑥𝑥̅ =
√15

𝜎𝜎𝑥𝑥̅ = 1.29

Conclusion: The sampling distribution has the mean of 50 and a standard deviation
of 1.29. Since the standard deviation is large and very far from zero, the
sample mean is a poor estimate for the population mean.

of 70 inches and standard deviation of 2 inches. If 90 samples
consisting of 30 students each are drawn from the population, what
would be the mean and standard deviation of the computed
sampling distribution of the means?

Assuming that the population is infinite;

Step 1. Identify the given information.

μ X̅ = μ = 70

δ = 2 ; n = 30

Step 2. Find the mean of the sampling distribution. Use the property that μ X̅ = μ

Conclusion: The sampling distribution has the mean of 70 and a standard deviation of

Sample problem 1. The average time it takes a group of OSHS students to complete
a Statistics test is 54.8 minutes. The standard deviation is 5
minutes. We shall assume that the data are normally distributed.
a. What is the probability that a randomly chosen OHS student
will complete the test in less than 53 minutes?

Step 1. Identify the given information

μ = 54.8, 𝜎𝜎 = 5, x = 53
Step 2. Identify what is ask
P(x < 53)
Step 3. Identify the formula to be used.
When dealing with an individual data obtained from the

z= x− μ

Step 4. Solve the problem
Illustration:

We shall find P(x<53) by getting the area under a normal curve

P(X<53) = P(z < -0.36)
= 0.5000 – 0.1406
= 0.3594

Step 5. State the final answer.

So, the probability that a randomly chosen OHS student will finish
the test in less than 53 minutes is 0.3594 or 35.94%. This implies that it is 35.94

Step 5. State your final answer

So, the probability that 50 randomly selected OSHS students will finish
the test in less than 53 minutes is 0.0054 or 0.54%. This implies that it is only
0.54% possibility that a group of 50 students will finish the test in less than 53

be spent to survey the entire population.
9. Parameter describes the entire population. The fact is about the whole population
that is easy to figure out because the groups are small enough to measure
10. A finite population is a population that has a fixed number of elements or

possible random samples of a specific size were taken from a population.
12. These are the properties of the sampling distribution of the sample means:

standard deviation is small or very close to zero, then the sample mean is a
good estimate for the population mean. If the value of the standard deviation is

14. The central limit theorem states that if random samples of size n are drawn from
a population with mean μ and variance δ2 , the sampling distribution of the
mean approaches normal distribution with mean μ and variance δ2 /n as n, the
sample size, gets larger regardless of the shape of the original population

(Student is expected to show the result of the activity to the teacher )

Lesson 7.
Activity:
1.
μ X̅ = μ = 20.08

= 0.207

Conclusion: The sampling distribution has the mean of 20.08 and a

standard deviation of 0.207.Since the standard deviation is small and close to
zero, the sample mean is a good estimate for the population mean.
