Central Limit Theorem PPT Kyle

The document discusses the Central Limit Theorem (CLT), which states that the distribution of sample means approaches a normal distribution as sample size increases, typically when n≥30. It provides examples of calculating sample means and probabilities using the CLT, emphasizing its importance in statistical inference even when the original population distribution is not normal. The document also includes assessment tasks related to calculating probabilities based on sample means.

GROUP 1:
Problem: Consider a population of
Senior High School consisting of
the values 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Let us
list all possible sample size of 1
from this population and compute
the mean of each sample and
GROUP 2:
Problem: Consider all the possible
samples of size 2 that can be drawn
with replacement from the
population 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. List all
the possible sample size of 2 from
this population and compute the
sample mean of each sample.
• The distribution of the sample
mean tends toward the normal
distribution as the sample size
increases, regardless of the
distribution from which we are
sampling.
• The sample mean can be
considered approximately normally
distributed if the sample size is at
least
30 (n ≥30).
• If the sample size is sufficiently
large, the Central Limit Theorem
Central
Limit
Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem (CLT)
states that regardless of the shape
of the original population
distribution, the distribution of the
sample means approaches a normal
distribution as the sample size
increases, provided the samples are
randomly selected and sufficiently
large (typically n≥30).
If the sample size is sufficiently large, the
Central Limit Theorem can be used to answer
the sample mean in the same manner that a
normal distribution can be used to answer
questions about individual samples. This also
means that even if the population is not
normally distributed, or if we don't know of
its distribution, the Central Limit Theorem
allows us to conclude that the distribution of
the sample mean will be normal if the sample
size is sufficiently large. It is generally
accepted that a sample size of at least 30 is
large enough to conclude that the Central
Limit Theorem will ensure a normal
distribution in the sampling process
Further, we can continue to use the z conversion
formula in our calculations. This time we will use
the formula,,
Why is it important to know the
Central Limit Theorem?

- Many statistics have distributions


that are approximately normal for
large sample sizes, even when we are
sampling from a distribution that is
not normal. This means that we can
develop statistical inference
procedures that are based on the
normal distribution, even if we are
sampling from a population that is not
EXAMPLE:
Suppose that the average age of the
people living in a Barangay is 34
with a standard deviation of 4. If
100 residents of a certain Barangay
decided to take summer outing after
the COVID-19 pandemic and
Enhanced Community Quarantine
has been lifted for bonding and
relaxation, what is the probability
that the average age of these
step 1: Write the given data

step 2: Convert the raw score to the


standard score using the formula.
Step 3: Use the Z table to find P (Z < 2.5).
P(Z <2.5) =0.4938 + 0.5 = 0.9938

Therefore, the probability that the random


sample of 100 persons has an average of fewer
than 35 years is 0.9938 or 99.38%

the mean of each

bit interesting!

Let x be the mean of a random


sample of size 60 drawn from a
population with mean 120 and
standard deviation 45. Find the
probability that x assumes a
value between 112 and 125.
EXAMPLE:

Let x be the mean of a random


sample of size 60 drawn from a
population with mean 120 and
standard deviation 45. Find the
probability that x assumes a
value greater than 117.

population with mean 120 and
standard deviation 45. Find the
probability that x assumes a
