Performance Task 3 in Statistics and Probability

Third Quarter Second Semester SY 2024-2025

Name: _______________________________________________________ Score:


Grade Level/Strand/Section: ____________________________ Date: ___________________

A. True or False. Write True if the statement is correct, otherwise write False.

______________ 1. The normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution that is symmetrical


on both sides of the mean, so the right side of the center is a mirror image of the left side.
______________ 2. The normal probability distribution is also known as the Gaussian probability
distribution who named after the German mathematician, Carl Gauss, who first described and
discovered it.
______________ 3. A normal probability distribution is determined by the two parameters namely the
mean (µ) and the standard deviation (σ).
______________ 4. The graph of a normal probability distribution is called as the normal curve.
______________ 5. The area under the normal probability distribution represents the probability and
the total area under the curve sums to 100% or 1.
______________ 6. The empirical rule is often referred to as the three-sigma rule or the 68.3%-95.4%-
99.7% rule.
______________ 7. The empirical rule allows researchers to calculate the probability of randomly
obtaining a score from a normal probability distribution.
______________ 8. In empirical rule, 68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the
mean, this means that, there is a 68.3% probability of randomly selecting a score between -1 and +1
standard deviations from the mean.
______________ 9. 95.4% of data falls within the second standard deviation from the mean, this
means that, there is a 95.4% probability of randomly selecting a score between -2 and +2 standard
deviations from the mean.
______________ 10. 99.7% of data falls within the third standard deviation from the mean, this means
that, there is a 99.7% probability of randomly selecting a score between -3 and +3 standard deviations
from the mean.

B. Determine if the following is a property of a normal probability distribution. Write yes or no on the
blank space provided before each number.

______________ 1. Symmetric about the mean, that is, half of the values fall below the mean and the
other half fall above the mean.
______________ 2. It is a continuous curve, meaning, there are gaps, breaks, or holes.
______________ 3. The maximum point on the normal curve occurs at the mean.
______________ 4. The three measures of central tendency (mean, median, and mode) are exactly the
same.
______________ 5. It has only mode (unimodal).
______________ 6. Its graph is a bell-shaped curve with two inflection points.
______________ 7. Asymptotic (never touches) to the x-axis.
______________ 8. The total area under the normal curve is 100% or 1.
______________ 9. The mean and the standard deviation are the two parameters of a normal
probability distribution.
______________ 10. Its standard deviation measures how far away from the mean the values tend to
fall.

C. Illustrate the following distribution by a normal curve.

1. Mean µ is 94 and standard deviation σ is 15 2. Average is 80.6 and standard deviation is 7.3
D. Refer to Test C, find the probability.

_____________ 1. Upper 79 _____________ 6. Below 95.2


_____________ 2. Lower 124 _____________ 7. Above 80.6
_____________ 3. Between 94 and 139 _____________ 8. Middle of 87.9 and 102.5
_____________ 4. Two standard deviation _____________ 9. One standard deviation
from the mean above the mean
_____________ 5. Three standard deviation _____________ 10. Two standard deviation
from the mean below the mean

E. Solve the following problems.

1. The scores of the Junior High Schools (JHS) students in their 50-item Math Quiz are normally
distributed with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 8. (5 points)
a. Sketch its normal curve.
b. What percent of the scores are less than 51?
c. What percent of the scores are greater than 27?
d. What percent of the scores are 19 to 59?
e. What scores fall within 68.3% of the distribution?

2. Use Empirical rule to complete the following table. Write on the respective column the score
based on the given parameters. (6 points)

Given Mean is 68 and µ = 145 and


standard deviation is 𝝈𝟐 = 49
13
Three standard deviation below the mean

Two standard deviation below the mean

One standard deviation below the mean

One standard deviation above the mean

Two standard deviation above the mean

Three standard deviation above the mean
