Introductory Message

For the facilitator:

Welcome to the Statistics and Probability for Senior High School Module on
Sampling Distribution of Sample Mean Using Central Limit Theorem!

This module was collaboratively designed, developed and reviewed by educators

from Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its Officer-In-Charge Schools
Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A. Agustin in partnership with
the Local Government of Pasig through its mayor, Honorable Victor Ma. Regis N.
Sotto.
The writers utilized the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum using the Most
Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) while overcoming their personal, social,
and economic constraints in schooling.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and independent
learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims to help
learners acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely:
Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the body of
the module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies
that will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module.
You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to
manage their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and assist the
learners as they do the tasks included in the module.
For the learner:

Welcome to the Statistics and Probability Module on Sampling Distribution of

Sample Mean Using Central Limit Theorem!

The hand is one of the most symbolized part of the human body. It is often used to
depict skill, action and purpose. Through our hands we may learn, create and
accomplish. Hence, the hand in this learning resource signifies that you as a
learner is capable and empowered to successfully achieve the relevant
competencies and skills at your own pace and time. Your academic success lies in
your own hands!

This module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities
for guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be
enabled to process the contents of the learning material while being an active
learner.

This module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

PRETEST

Problem Solving: Solve each problem using Central Limit Theorem and choose the
letter of the correct answer.

1.) The world is now facing a COVID-19 pandemic, an infectious disease which
can be prevented by frequently washing your hands and by avoiding close contact
with people who are sick. About a decade ago, a similar disease was experienced
which was named severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS). It is recorded that the
average age of those who are infected is 32.6 years old with standard deviation of
3.7 years. If 50 samples are to be chosen, what would be the mean and the
standard deviation of the given sample?

A.) Mean = 32.6 years old, Standard Deviation = 3.7 years

B.) Mean = 4.61 years old, Standard Deviation = 3.7 years
C.) Mean = 32.6 years old, Standard Deviation = 0.52 years
D.) Mean = 4.61 years old, Standard Deviation = 0.52 years

2.) A random sample of n=60 measurements is obtained from a population with

µ = 198 and σ = 23. Describe the sampling distribution of sample means by
computing 𝜇𝑥̅ and 𝜎𝑥̅ . Solve for 𝜇𝑥̅ and 𝜎𝑥̅ .

A.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 198 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =23 B.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 198 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =2.97
C.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 25.56 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =23 D.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 25.56 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =2.97
3.) Pasig City is 3rd richest city in the Philippines behind Makati City and Quezon
City. If we compute the standard deviation of the gross income of these cities we
will get 5.78 million pesos. If we randomly choose 10 cities, what will be the
standard distribution of the sampling distribution of sample mean?
A.) 0.58 B.) 1.16 C.) 1.83 D.) 2.89
4.) A population has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 4. A random sample
of 9 students is drawn from this population. Compute its mean and standard
deviation.

A.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 5.56 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =0.44 B.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 50 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =4
C.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 16.67 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =1.33 D.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 50 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =1.33
5.) A population has a mean of 1000 and a standard deviation of 72. A random
sample of 100 students is drawn from this population. Compute its mean and
standard deviation.

A.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 10 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =0.72 B.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 1000 and 𝜎𝑥̅ = 0.72
C.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 1000 and 𝜎𝑥̅ = 7.2 D.) 𝜇𝑥̅ =1000 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =72

RECAP

Solve for the finite correction factor and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of
sample mean.

1.) N =20, n =2, σ = 3

2.) N =50, n =5, σ = 1.7
3.) N =infinite, n =3, σ = 2
4.) N =infinite, n =5, σ = 3.6
5.) N =infinite, n =7, σ = 4.9
 LESSON

According to Central Limit Theorem any sampling distribution of sample mean

approaches the normal distribution as the sample size increases.

Now what will be its property.

1.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 𝜇
𝜎2
2.) 𝜎𝑥̅2 =
𝑛
𝜎
3.) 𝜎𝑥̅ =
√𝑛

Does the formula look familiar?

It is because the formula is the same as when computing for the properties of
sampling distribution of sample mean with infinite population.

In reality, sample of infinite population rarely exist. But we still use this formula
because of Central Limit Theorem.

For example,

1.) The age of high school students in Pasig City has mean and variance of
16.02 and 3.03 respectively. If 80 students are chosen from the population,
what will be the expected mean and standard deviation of this samples?

Obviously, the students of Pasig City can’t be infinite otherwise the classrooms and
schools in Pasig City should be infinite too. But we will use Central Limit Theorem
to solve the mean and standard deviation of the age.

Given: 𝜇 = 16.02, 𝜎 2 = 3.03 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛 = 80

Now let us solve for 𝜇𝑥̅ and 𝜎𝑥̅

𝜇𝑥̅ = 𝜇 = 16.02

𝜎 √𝜎 2 √3.03
𝜎𝑥̅ = = = = 0.19
√𝑛 √𝑛 √80

Another example

2.) The average height of male in the Philippines with age 20 to 39 is 163.5 cm
while the standard deviation is 37.8 cm. If we choose 200 from these people
what will be the expected mean and standard deviation of this sample?
Given: 𝜇 = 163.5, 𝜎 = 37.8 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛 = 200

Now let us solve for 𝜇𝑥̅ and 𝜎𝑥̅

𝜇𝑥̅ = 𝜇 = 163.5
𝜎 37.8
𝜎𝑥̅ = = = 2.67
√𝑛 √200

ACTIVITIES

Activity:

Solve for the following problems.

1.) The average salary of teachers in the Philippines is P31,100 with

standard deviation P14074.07. If we choose 120 teachers what would be
the average and the standard deviation of their salary?
2.) Given a population with mean and variance of 180 and 15 respectively. If
we choose 200 sample from this population, what will be the expected
mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample
mean?
More Practice

Solve the following

1.) The average gross profit per day of cellphone application is

P1,101,152.50 with standard deviation of P152,924.10. If we choose
1000 samples from these applications, what will be the expected mean
and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean?
2.) A population has mean and standard deviation of 97 and 23 respectively.
If we choose 15 samples, what will be the expected mean and standard
deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean?
 WRAP–UP

Lesson Summary:

By Central Limit theorem, the property of sampling distribution of sample mean

may be solved using:
1.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 𝜇
𝜎2
2.) 𝜎𝑥̅2 =
𝑛
𝜎
3.) 𝜎𝑥̅ =
√𝑛

VALUING

The sampling distribution of sample mean follows the property of the population. It
seems that the population is the leader while the sampling distribution of sample
mean is his member. A good student should be like this population, he or she
should be a good leader. A leader is someone that does not command but works
with his member. He leads by example. You should be trustworthy and also a good
speaker. Cite some situations before where you acted as a leader in your section or
in school.

POSTTEST

Multiple Choice: Choose the letter of the correct answer.

1.) The average time of a basketball game is 51.32 minutes with standard
deviation of 3.56 minutes. If we choose 80 games from these games, then
what would be the mean and the standard deviation of the sampling
distribution of sample mean?
A.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 51.32 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =0.04
B.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 51.32 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =0.40
C.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 51.32 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =0.50
D.) 𝜇𝑥̅ = 51.32 and 𝜎𝑥̅ =3.56
