a. The probability that 40 or more boxes will be sold in a particular day means P (X

This means that you have to add P(X=40), P(X=42), P (X=45), P(X=50).
P (X≥ 40) = P(40) + P(42) + P(45) + P(50) then, substitute its corresponding
probability.
b. The probability that the number of boxes delivered will be at least 37 but not
more than 50 means P (37≤ X< 50). Hence, the values included are P(37),
P(40), P42) and P(45), then substitute its corresponding probability and add.

c. The probability that at most 40 boxes will be delivered in a particular day means
P (X≤ 40) so the values of X are P(40), P(37) and P(35)

purpose for the
lesson During Town Fiesta, people used to go to Carnival that most folks call it “Perya”. Mang
Ben used to play “Beto–beto” hoping that he would win. While he is thinking about what
possible outcomes in every roll would be, he is always hoping that his bet is right. Let us
help Mang Ben to know the probabilities of each outcome by filling the table below.

Based on the data above, observe, analyze, and answer the following
questions:
1. Is the probability of x lies between 0 and 1?
________________________________________________________________________

2. What is the sum of all probabilities of X?

new lesson

It only implies that the weighted average of the six possible outcomes 1, 2,…, 6 with
weights provided by the relative frequencies. Remember that 3.5 isn’t a value that we can
observe if we will do the experiment. By similarity with information and relative
frequencies, we can characterize the mean of a discrete random variable by utilizing
probabilities from its dispersion, as follows.
1. The mean is considered as a measure of the `central location' of a random variable. It is
the weighted average of the values that random variable X can take, with weights provided
by the probability distribution.
2. The Expected Value or Mean Value of a discrete random variable x is can be
computed by first multiplying each possible x value by the probability of observing that
value and then adding the resulting quantities. Symbolically,

Example 1: Suppose a random variable X that has the discrete uniform distribution with
What is it possible values 1, 2,…, n. The mean or expected value is presented by
D. Discussing
new concepts
and practicing
new skills # 1 Since the possible values are 1, 2,…, n when rolling a die a fair of die the mean is

This 3.5 is the expectation only. That’s the reason why in question 4, we
come up to 3.5 as its mean value. So, doing the experiment which is rolling a single die
several times and getting average or mean of the total possible outcomes, we, therefore,
conclude that the average tends to be close to 3.5. This also implies that the more rolls we
do, the closer the average will be to 3.5.

Example 2. Suppose you want to find the average number of apples sold in any five
grocery stores as indicated by the figure below.

Analyzing the illustration above, then the mean or expected value is 11. If you are
wondering why this happens you may also follow with these processes:
1. Separate 8 elements on the left side of the mean then get the average of those a (3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10) which is equal to 6.5
2. Do the same on the right side of mean (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19) which is
equal to 15.5.
3. Get the average value of the numbers 6.5, 11, and 15.5. It will be equal to 11 also.

As a whole, we can generate a physical representation and interpretation of the discrete


random variable X with its probability P(X). Assume that the x-axis is an unbounded see-
saw in both directions, and we put weights corresponds to probability P(X) at each
associated value(x) of random variable X. Therefore, the mean (𝝁𝒙) is the point where the
see-saw balance. In other words, it is the center of weights of the observation.

In the off chance, that value of X close to its mean 𝜇𝑥 are likely and values
further away from 𝜇𝑥 have small probability, at that point, the distribution of X will
be firmly concentrated around 𝜇𝑥. For this situation, the spread of the distribution
of X is little. On the contrary, if the expected value of X some distance from its mean
𝜇𝑥 are likely, the spread of the distribution of X will be sizeable.
These concepts lead the way to the most important measure of spread,
the variance, and a closely related measure of variability, the standard deviation.
You probably have met the concepts of variance and standard deviation when
summarizing data in your Junior High School Mathematics. These were the sample
variance and the sample standard deviation. The difference here is that we are referring to
properties of the distribution of a discrete random variable. The variance of a random
variable displays the variability or the dispersions of the random variables. It shows the
distance of a random variable from its mean.
The Variance of a Discrete Random Variable X, denoted by is computed by first
subtracting the mean from each possible x value to obtain the deviations, then squaring
each deviation and multiplying the result by the probability of the corresponding x value,
and then finally adding these quantities.

Example 3. Consider this figure.

a. Illustrate the mean.


b. Compare the variance and standard deviation.

Solution:
a. Since the data is symmetric along the x-axis, so the mean 𝜇𝑥 is equal to 6. (You may
verify the 𝜇𝑥 value using the 3 steps provided in the previous example)
b. To illustrate the variance and standard deviation without having computation, study the
diagram below.

Since we are comparing two elements this time (2 and 5 on the left side of the mean and 7
and 10 in the right, the 𝜇𝑥 is doubled which became 12. Adding 2 and 5 elements gives us
7, similarly on the right side adding 7 and 10 gives us 17. Get the average value of 7 and
17 which resulted in 12 which is our new 𝜇𝑥. Subtract 12 by 7 which is 5, likewise subtract
17 by 12 which also resulted in 5. This implies that the distance of the element from the
mean in either direction is 5 which describes the spread of the elements in the
observation.

To solve the above problem, we will follow 3 steps below.

STEPS IN FINDING THE MEAN


Step 1: Construct the probability distribution for the random variable X representing the
number of items that the customer will buy.

Step 2: Multiply the value of the random variable X by the corresponding probability.

Step 3: Add the results obtained in Step 2. Results obtained is the mean of the
probability distribution.

Solution:
So, the mean of the probability distribution is 3.1. This implies that the average number of
items that the customer will buy is 3.1.

Example 1
The number of cars sold per day at a local car dealership, along with its corresponding
probabilities, is shown in the succeeding table. Compute the variance and the standard
deviation of the probability distribution by following the given steps. Write your answer in
your answer sheets.

In solving the problem, let’s follow the steps below.

STEPS IN FINDING THE VARIANCE AND STANDARD DEVIATION


1. Find the mean of the probability distribution.
2. Subtract the mean from each value of the random variable X.
3. Square the result obtained in Step 2.
4. Multiply the results obtained in Step 3 by the corresponding probability.
5. Get the sum of the results obtained in Step 4. Results obtained is the value of the
variance of probability distribution.

Now let’s solve the problem.


To Solve for Standard Deviation:
Get the square root of the variance σ2 = Σ(𝑥− μ)2p(x)
= 1.56
σ = √1.56
= 1.25
So, the variance of the number of cars sold per day is 1.56 and the standard deviation is
1.25.

Example 2
When three coins are tossed once, the probability distribution for the random variable X
representing the number of heads that occur is given below. Compute the variance and
standard deviation of the probability distribution.

Solution:
Follow the steps in finding variance and standard deviation of the probability distribution.
To solve for Standard Deviation
σ2 = Σ(𝑥− μ)2p(x)
= 0.74
σ = √0.74
= 0.86
The mean in tossing 3 coins with probability of Head will show up is 0.86 and the
variance is 0.74, then the standard deviation is 0.86.
