2 3
from the jar is or 0.2, the probability of getting a 2 is or 0.3, and the probability of getting

What is It

Further explanations on solving problems involving the mean, variance, and standard
deviation are shown in the following illustrative examples. Study the techniques used in solving
word problems involving mean, variance, and standard deviation.

Example 1

What is the mean and variance of the results if a number is picked from a jar containing one
2s, six 4s, and three 6s?

Solution:
This problem is similar to the problem in Activity 2. The jar contains ten numbers: one 2, six
1
4s, and three 6s. The probability of getting a 2 from the jar is or 0.1, the probability of getting
10
6 3
a 4 is or 0.6, and the probability of getting a 6 is or 0.3.
10 10

X P(X) X•P(X) X2•P(X)


2 0.1 0.2 22•0.1 = 0.4
4 0.6 2.4 42•0.6 = 9.6
6 0.3 1.8 62•0.3 = 10.8
Σ X•P(X) = 2.8 Σ X2• P(X) = 20.8

a. 𝜇 = Σ X•P(X) b. 𝜎 2 = Σ X2• P(X) - 𝜇 2 c. 𝜎 = √12.96


𝜇 = 2.8 𝜎 2 = 20.8 – (2.8) 2 𝜎= 3.6
𝜎 2 = 20.8 – 7.84
𝜎 2 = 12.96
The mean of the probability distribution is 2.8. The variance and standard deviation are 12.96
and 3.6, respectively.

Example 2

Your school’s SSG officers initiated a color fun run in the school, where 250 slots will be
available. The most colorful runner will win Php 2500, while other runners will win nothing. If
you are one of the registrants, what will be your expected value and variance of your gain?

Solution:

The most colorful runner will have a gain of Php 2,500, but the probability of winning
1
will only be or 0.004. The remaining runner will have a gain of Php 0, and the probability
250
249
will be or 0.996. So, if we construct a probability distribution, it will become.
250

X P(X)
0 0.996
2500 0.004

7
By solving the mean and variance of the probability distribution, it will go this way:

X P(X) X•P(X) X2•P(X)


0 0.996 0 02•0.996 = 0.2
2500 0.004 10 25002•0.004 = 25000
Σ X•P(X) = 10 Σ X2• P(X) = 25000.2
a. 𝜇 = Σ X•P(X) b. 𝜎 2 = Σ X2• P(X) - 𝜇 2
𝜇 = 10 𝜎 2 = 25 000.2 – 100
𝜎 2 = 24 900.2
The expected value or mean of the probability distribution is Php 10. The variance of
your gain is 24 900.2, and it indicates how spread out the values of x are around the mean.
Given this large value, this shows that the values are very far from each other.

Example 3
The probability that 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 people will be placed on hold when they call a radio
talk show is shown in the distribution. The radio station has four phone lines. Find the variance
and standard deviation for the data.
X 0 1 2 3 4
P(X) 0.18 0.34 0.23 0.21 0.04

Solution:
X P(X) X•P(X) X2•P(X)
0 0.18 0 02•0.18 = 0
1 0.34 0.34 12•0.34 =0.34
2 0.23 0.46 22•0.23 = 0.92
3 0.21 0.63 32•0.21 =1.89
4 0.04 0.16 42•0.04 =0.64
Σ X•P(X) = 1.59 Σ X2• P(X) = 3.79

a. 𝜇 = Σ X•P(X) b. 𝜎 2 = Σ X2• P(X) - 𝜇 2


𝜇 = 1.59 𝜎 2 = 3.79 – (1.59) 2
𝜎 2 = 3.79 – 2.5281
𝜎 2 = 1.2619 ≈ 1.26
𝜎 2 = 1.26
c. 𝜎 = √1.26
𝜎 = 1.1224 ≈ 1.22
𝜎 = 1.22

Note: Round off to the nearest hundredths.

The mean of the probability distribution is 1.59. The variance and standard deviation
are 1.26 and 1.22, respectively.

Example 4
Xander is paid Php 20 whenever tossing two coins are both heads but pays Php 10
whenever the results are not both heads. What is his expected gain per toss?

Solution:
Let X be the random variable defined. There are four outcomes in tossing two coins,
in which only 1 is HH. The other results are HT, TH, and TT. The probability of both heads is

8
1 3
or 0.25 while the probability of not both heads is or 0.75. If the two coins are both heads,
4 4
the net gain is Php 20. But if tossing the coins does not give two heads, he will lose Php 10; a
negative number represents the gain. In this case, it will be written as –Php 10. By constructing
a probability distribution, it will be written this way:

X P(X)
20 0.25
-10 0.75

𝜇 = E(X) = Σ X•P(X) = (20)(0.25) + (-10)(0.75) This means that Xander would


= 5 – 7.50 lose Php 2.50 per toss.
𝜇 = - Php 2.50
Note: If the number is positive, it means that it gains/ increases.

What is It
Understanding Normal Curve Distribution

Like what we did in the previous activity, many real-life events generate random
variables that have the natural tendency to approximate a bell’s shape. What do you think are
those?

For example, the heights of many seedlings that we see in a farm normally consist of a
few tall ones, few short ones, and most of them having heights between tall and short. Also, if
a well-prepared test is administered to a class that consists of 100 students, there will be a
few high scores, a few high scores, and a few low scores, and most of them have between
high scores and low scores.

If a distribution consists of many cases and the three measures of averages (mean,
median, and mode) are equal, the distribution is symmetrical, and the skewness is 0.
In probability theory and statistics, skewness is a measure of the asymmetry of the probability
distribution of a real-valued random variable about its mean. The skewness value can be
positive, zero, negative, or undefined. In Statistics, such distribution is what we call a normal
distribution.

What is a Normal Distribution?

- The distribution of a continuous random variable whose graph is a bell-shaped and


symmetrical curve is called a normal curve.
- A normal curve is a graphical representation of statistical values needed to describe the
characteristics of populations and make decisions.
- It is defined by an equation that uses the population mean, 𝜇 (mu) and the population
standard deviation, 𝜎 (sigma)

There is no single curve, but rather a whole family of normal curves with the same basic
characteristics that have different means and standard deviations.

14
The figure on the previous page shows some examples of the normal curve with
different means and standard deviations. Figure (a) shows a normal curve with a minimal
standard deviation, (b) with a large standard deviation, and (c) with a medium standard
deviation. Though they seem to be very different, they share common properties.

What is a Standard Normal Distribution?

A standard normal curve is a normal probability distribution with a mean, 𝜇= 0, and


a standard deviation, 𝜎 = 1. The normal distribution, also known as the Gaussian Distribution,
has the following formula:
1 𝑥− 𝜇 2
− ( )
𝑒 2 𝜎
Y=
𝜎√2𝜋

where: Y = height of the curve particular values of X


x = any score in the distribution
𝜎 = standard deviation of the population
𝜇 = mean of the population
𝜋 = 3.14159…
𝑒 = 2.71828…

Properties of the Normal Probability Distribution


1. The distribution curve is bell-shaped.
2. The curve is symmetrical about its center.
3. The mean, median, and mode coincide at the center.
4. The standard deviation of the distribution determines the width of the curve.
5. The curve’s tails flatten out indefinitely along the horizontal axis, always approaching
the x-axis but never touching it. That is, the curve is asymptotic to the baseline.
6. The area under the curve is 1. Thus, it represents the probability or proportion or the
percentage associated with specific sets of measurement values.
The mean 𝜇 is the center of a normal distribution. A higher mean shifts the probability
distribution position to the right, while a lower mean shifts its position to the left.

The standard deviation 𝜎 is a measure of dispersion – the higher the standard deviation,
the wider is the distribution – a smaller standard deviation results in a narrower bell-shaped
curve.

for you. Your job is to check for errors in each step of the solution. If there are

ANSWERED TEST WITH ERRORS:

Problem:
Your father said that if your grade in Math is at least 90 in a grading quarter, he will
add Php 50 to your daily allowance, Php 20 if your grade is 80 - 89, but he will decrease it by
Php 10 if your grade is 79 and below. If the probability of getting at least 90 is 12%, while you
have a 45% chance to get 80 – 89, what is the standard deviation of your possible allowance
per quarter?

Solution:
Step 1: Finding The Mean

X P(X)
50 0.12
20 0.45
-10 0.43

𝜇 = E(X) = Σ X•P(X) = (50)(0.12) + (20)(0.45) + (-10)(0.43)


= 15 – 4.3
𝜇 = 10.7

Step 2: Finding The Variance

X P(X) X•P(X) X2•P(X)


50 0.12 6 50 •0.12 = 300

20 0.45 9 202•0.45 =180


-10 0.43 -4.3 (-10)2•0.43 = 43
Σ X•P(X) = 1.59 Σ X2• P(X) = 523

𝜎 2 = Σ X2• P(X) - 𝜇 2
= 520.4719 ≈ 520.47

Step 3: Finding The Standard Deviation
