Directions: Read and analyze each item then write your answer on the space provided, AVOID ERASURES.
I. Modified True or False. Write GANERN if the statement is correct, otherwise change the underlined word to make each
statement correct.
________1. It is true that the value of a random variable is determined by chance.
________2. The set of possible outcomes of an experiment is called sample space.
________3. Continuous random variable has a countable number of possible values.
________4. Continuous random variable takes an infinite number of possible values.
________5. The average size of an amoeba can be classified as a discrete random variable.
________6. An experiment is any activity that can be done repeatedly under similar conditions.
________7. It is impossible to have five heads as a value of random variable when tossing five coins.
________8. The number of pairs of chromosomes in humans can be classified as continuous random variable.
________9. Random variable is a function that associates a real number to each element in the sample space.
________10. The number of franchise fast food stall inside the Ayala Mall is classified as discrete random variable.
II. Identification. Write DISCRETE if it is a discrete random variable and CONTINUOUS if it is a continuous random variable.
