Analysis:
Mrs. Dela Cruz class is not that big, it is much
better if she will get the scores of her entire class
to have an analysis.
The population refers to the whole group under study or investigation.
Population
2. It is a subset taken from a population, either by random or non-
random sampling technique. A sample is a representation of the
population where one hopes to draw valid conclusions from about
population.
Sample
3. This is a selection of n elements derived from a population N, which
is the subject of the investigation or experiment, where each sample
point has an equal chance of being selected using the appropriate
sampling technique.
Random Sampling
4. A sampling technique where every member of the population has an
equal chance of being selected.
Lottery Sampling
5. It refers to a sampling technique in which members of the
population are listed and samples are selected in intervals called
sample intervals.
Systematic Sampling
Identify which of the cases involves measures from a population and
a sample.
1. A researcher randomly selected a sample of 1000 people in
Barangay, 143 and asked if they used a certain coffee product and
40% of them said yes.
2. A researcher interviewed all the students in a certain school to
identify their insights about their favorite shoe brand.
Analysis: In the first case the researcher measures for a sample. Only
40% out of 100 said yes. While in the second case the researcher
measures the population because the researcher interviewed all the
students of that school.
A parameter is a descriptive population measure. It is a
measure of the characteristics of the entire population (a
mass of all the units under consideration that share common
characteristics) based on all the elements within that
population.
Example:
1. All people living in one city, all-male teenagers worldwide, all
elements in a shopping cart, and all students in a classroom.
What’s In.
A population consists of the five numbers 2, 3, 6, 10, and 12.
Consider samples of size 2 that can be drawn from this population.
Sample Mean
2,3 2.5
Example 1: A population consists of the five numbers 2, 3, 6, 10 and 12.
Consider samples of size 2 that can be drawn from this population.
A. How many possible samples can be drawn?
To answer this, use the formula NCn (the number of N objects taken
n at a time), where N is the total population and n is the sample to
be taken out of the population,
5 C2 = 10
So, there are 10 possible samples to be drawn.
B. Construct the sampling distribution of sample means.
List all the possible outcome and get the mean of every sample.
sample Sample mean
2,3 2.5
2,4 3
2,6 4
2,10 6 Observe that the means vary
2,12 7
from sample to sample. Thus,
3,10 6.5
any mean based on the sample
3,6 4.5
drawn from a population is
3,12 7.5
6,10 8
expected to assume different
6,12 9 values for samples.
C. This time, let us make a probability distribution of the sample
means. This probability distribution is called the sampling
distribution of the sample means.
Sample mean Probability
2.5 1/10 or 0.1
3 1/10 or 0.1
4 1/10 or 0.1
6 1/10 or 0.1
Observe that all sample means
7 1/10 or 0.1
appeared only one; thus, their
6.5 1/10 or 0.1
4.5 1/10 or 0.1
probability is P(x)= 1 10 or 0.1
7.5 1/10 or 0.1
8 1/10 or 0.1
9 1/10 or 0.1
Problem: Construct a sampling distribution of sample mean for the
set of data below.
86 88 90 95 98
Consider a sample size of 3 that can be drawn from a population.
88 1/10 or 0.1
Direction : Find the Sample mean and probability of the following data
86 89 92 95 98
ANSWER
Sample mean Probability P(x)
89 1/10 or 0.1
90 1/10 or 0.1
91 2/10 or 0.2
92 2/10 or 0.2
93 2/10 or 0.2
94 1/10 or 0.1
95 1/10 or 0.1
