a. ACTIVITY: Concept Notes/Discussions:

Variables

It is variable is any information, attribute,

characteristic, number or quantity that
describe person, place, event, thing, or idea
that can be measure or counted.

Random Variable

A random variable is a variable whose value

is dependent to the outcome of a
experiment.

For examples:

Rolling a pair of dice Drawing a deck of card

 Sample Space

A sample space is a set of all possible

outcomes of an experiment.

Two Types of Random Variable

 Discrete Random Variable

It is a quantitative variable whose value can only be attained through counting.
It can be finite in number of possible values or countably infinite if the counting process
has no end
It is a set of possible outcomes is countable.

For examples:

The number of eggs The number of students

The total number of

The amount of money
COVID – 19 Patients
  Continuous Random Variable
It is a quantitative variable that can assume an infinitely many, uncountable number of real number
values.
The value given to an observation can include values as small as the instrument of measurement
allows.

It is a set of possible outcomes is measurable.

For examples:

The height of the boy The weight of the pig

The body temperature The speed of the red car
